Aria STG-004

I won't extend myself, it's a Korean Strat copy

UTILIZATION

Neck everything alright

SOUNDS

The clean sound is correct, it's recognizable right away, especially on the bridge pickup.
In arpeggios: OK. In rhythm clear sound: OK. In lead: meh (pickups). In distortion: You better forget about it! (always pickups)

OVERALL OPINION

I wanted an inexpensive strat copy, like this, to give it a try. I went to "la guitare à paris" which is in Pigalle, to find me a Squier. It was the store guy who recommended it to me and yet it cost a third less than the Squier! After testing and comparison, he was right! In conclusion, it's very good for its price because of its wood, which is correct, and its impeccable finish. However, it's necessary to change the pickups! I'll take care of that...
9 for the Quality/Price ratio

First of all I want is the MODEL prciser that I handed possde but hey, DSOL has no ...
So it is an imitation of Fat Start: two microphones and a single humbucker splitable singles
1 volume, 2 tone, Saddle handle 22 boxes with rosewood fingerboard, bridge type Start ...

UTILIZATION

The handle is wide enough and end: IDAL for beginners and many make their mark! CHAC is normally easy to acute and the action is low enough RULES of origin. I must say I surprised t for a guitar of this price game.
It is heavier than a squier, thereby Confre my taste better sound. Also, always compare squier, Tone knobs and microphones are REALLY DIFFERENT something other than dcoration ...
It is comfortable and the trs trs bends are prcis!

SOUNDS

Branch on my 30dfx marshall, it sounds the Tonra (thank you marshall but not limited to !)...
I have a branch squier, and frankly I t's: not too rglage ... short, c'tait not a. ..
The three pickups offer a trs good versatility, and split the humbucker is trs effective: boust really sound, which is trs apprciable for large saturation.
The sound is clear, however, may limit and a lack of DEFINITIONS (but only my opinion) ...
If not for the remainder: RAS: This guitar is a nice surprise and a trs trs good deal.

OVERALL OPINION

made over a year I have and I am always happy trs! The sound is also sustain and Submitted: even when you have a solid alder body, mache in a saddle and a rosewood fingerboard (even if it's not the first choice, bcp better than some other brands aglomr !!!).
The varnish is a bit weak against: Let me explain, if he can see the wood grain (which is important to me because it is primarily a scratch on wood) it does not like the small bumps and turns to white dessuite. Likewise, the guitar is a faith of some falls centimtre cella and got me a beautiful exploded 1cm on the edge ... In other words, Green j'tais now ...
But hey, let's ... There's worse, and even worse in other brand! This guitar is a real bargain for beginners because it is versatile trs (strat mind), very comfortable and sounds good trs including a big sound system (even y'avait no buzz or gr sille !!!).

2 single pickups, 1 humbucker, with the possibility to choose single or double coil on it

5-way switch to activate the pickups

2 tone knobs and one volume knob

22 frets

UTILIZATION

The neck is very comfortable to play, it's pretty thin and you can slide on it easily.

Access to higher frets is quick and easy (probably thanks to the neck), but as you approach the frets 19-20 it becomes more difficult (nothing too serious).

In terms of ergonomics, it may seem heavy at first, but it is a matter of habit. In terms of form, it is a perfect copy of the Fender Stratocaster, except the head, which for once is beautiful here.

In sound, we can get quality without going into the high-end equipment, which is a rather good point.

SOUNDS

This guitar is perfect for any style of music.
I am currently using a Line 6 Spider II modeling amp.
With the latter, I can get a wonderful clear sound and a super nice crunch. Also obtained a sound rock / hard rock that sounds good and a quite dirty metal sound but can let off steam!

OVERALL OPINION

Of course, praise on the guitar will depend on its use.

This guitar was my first electric guitar. When I started (I was 8 years old), the most wanted thing I had was having a guitar. For me, the stratocaster was THE electric guitar par excellence, THE basic look.

For beginners, it's great. You can play anything, and have fun without having headaches from complicated setup problems... The dream of a beginner.
Of course, depending on the style of music, after 3 or 4 years of playing, a new guitar will be needed to meet the precise needs of the user. However a small return on the first one is done regularly, I assure you!

In short, for beginners, this guitar is perfect and complete information given above should be taken based on this parameter.
