The guitar was made in Korea, for the mine in 1988. Bright red.
It's a 22 frets, one humbucker in bridge surely brand Aria and Aria 2 singles also.
The bridge and tremolo are Aria I think.
There is a 5 position pickup selector, one volume knob and one tone.
Strat-type handle (like a guitar strat acutuelle).
UTILIZATION
The handle is not bad, neither large nor end, the handle is correct.
Access to treble is perfect, I go easily frets 20/22.
It is a form strat standars (but which is closer to a jackson that a fender).
Its weight is correct, it is super light nor too heavy weight.
From its side, it manages to have something pretty good, there's no need to tamper with the grattepour have something good, the volume knob on the bottom and bottom tone and go!
SOUNDS
I play pretty rock / hard rock, and she is doing well in distortion, I'm to the metal type distortion (kind of distortion digitech) or its type mxr fuzz, or with my rockman c sustainor the perfect, all that on a small marshall and it sounds great.
In its clear I can be something very sharp which layer, or something pretty powerful distortion.
I never played with just the bridge pickup because I find that too steep c strings become too sensitive. then I go back a notch, bridge pickup + microphone middle and c perfect. I find that tapping into it a bit wrong, fo really hit hard, so I think the bridge pickup c lacks a little power.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 5 years but more than 20 years, color makes good with the black pickups, easy access to the treble is not evil, in its own distortion, and what I like least c lack of potato in tapping (but a change for micro seymour duncan or DiMarzio would surely do). I already try a squier and epiphone sg, I find the least Squier perforation and sg better. It occurs rarely, it should be at the vicinity of 200/250 euro for the price it's worth it I think. Ben is my first guitar so I will keep forever I think.
