UTILIZATION

The handle is generally pleasant, not the fastest but ok. Access to acute poses no particular problem, but suffers for large solis example, its 22 frets. The look is simply the ultimate, simple and black. The guitar is rather light but not balanced, careful not to let go if you are not large (less than 1m75) will enter the pit head. You can get a more accurate sound for sounds "grimey" as metal. With a good amp, one gets a rather nasty!

SOUNDS

The sound suits me well (metal), I play on the distortion of my amp (H & K - WARP 7) with a NOISEGATE (BOSS - NS2). At first I was playing well on a fat, very low, but over time I preferred the sounds sharper than I think most wicked and most suitable for fast games. So this guitar fits well with the heavy riffs and fat.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years, I especially like the look and sound fat. The hand position for "palm mute" is not necessarily obvious to adopt at first but got used to it. The price / quality ratio is excellent for a beginner (current price: 600 CHF ~ / ~ € 400). With experience I will gladly recommend to a beginner who wants to rock and metal, but for a more professional (live frequent studio) I find it too limited. Currently I think of him putting EMG81 for a more accurate and punchy story to keep it a few times.

(Edit: I would lay her life in him installing a EMG81 ... Surprisingly! Without becoming an exceptional guitar, it provides much more live and studio. More potatoes, more accurately.)
