24 frets, EMG 81 and 85 (neck), volume and tone pots, 3-position selector, etc ...

in short, everything has been said :-)

UTILIZATION

Handle very nice and accurate.
Access to acute nickel saw the shape of the beast, bend it on the 24th of cake with this scratch!
Ergonomics for cons, I think the head looks too, even with a good strap and even taking the Straplock on the upper horn is still annoying. And it weighs really, after a few hours of play it feels good standing ...
The sound is easily adjustable for the little that does not fall into the trap of "I want a big sound, I boost the bass and treble and I cut the mids."

SOUNDS

I play metal, hard, heavy, so yes I agree sounds great!
Peavey Bandit 112 on the guitar is expressed particularly well by playing against in the apartment 'must make up a large if not the neighbors land ...
The clean sound is clear and crisp in acute micro (the 81) and hot round micro burn (85), a real treat! And its saturated say where ... waouhh !!!!! Technical Info From climbing the gain, the EMG are expressed and there is a massacre, but to keep an accurate sound is not put at the bottom ...
This scratching can really do anything, harmonics, pinched harmonics, artificial harmonics, tapping, legato ... as soon as you put in the mediator becomes saturated almost useless because it is so reactive!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this for almost 2 months scratches and I bought Arpes very careful consideration ...
What I like most, the sound! The least, that it leans heavily on the head (it sucks for solo ...).
I tried the Eclipse in the same range, the only difference is the final look.
Value very correct.
If I had to redo this choice, I will not hesitate one second!
