Note : 10 sur 10 Published on 11/05/07 at 13:45
Characteristics have been well presented previously. To add (a little), I think it's a Korean guitar.
The mechanical stamped "Jackson" do not move. In addition, it is very easy to tune.
Some details are a little cheap, 1-ply pickguard, plate springs vibrato style "piece of plastic." I mean it in relation to detail the qualities of the beast.

UTILIZATION

The neck is very thin. For small hands, it is very nice. For the logs, I think it should be limited. I spent the linseed oil and it slides perfectly. It is not painted (or so it's quiet ...)
The string action is really low, hence the value of having a well tuned guitar (I will return).
I sometimes use a capo. The guitar does not Disagree as we change places. As the handle is fine, we can move easily.
The last frets are a little tight, but I used very little.

SOUNDS

Ben, I have no real style. I (almost) everything. It suits me perfectly in the registry that I give. Neck pickup, the sound is clear, the notes really stand out. Arpeggios or flat picking is enjoyable. For something more hairy, I use the microphone of the environment. It snaps, it's crunchy. I play two amps modeling of low-power (micro cube and Fender GDEC) in simulation rather soft. There's really happy. No problems or other feedback. For big sound, I change my guitar. Even if it does pickup, compared to an Ibanez (RGT42) or a Gibson ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over a year. For now, it's my favorite. There is nothing I dislike. I have several different models, but I always come back to it. I bought it by chance on ebay. I did not pay very dear, but it's for a walk in the luthier: recovery of the handle, Planing frets, adjust the string height. Without this work, the action is much higher, and closer to more low-end guitars.
It's really a great guitar. For now, if I could keep one, it would be this one.
