Made in Indonesia.
24 frets, two humbuckers and a single with a 5-way switch.
Licensed Floyd Rose bridge, BUT THIS IS NOT ONE! The principle is the same, but it's still far from an original Floyd.
knob a volume, one tone and a maple neck (rosewood fingerboard).

So given the price, really nothing shocking, it seems fairly well served!

UTILIZATION

The handle is very comfortable a model of its kind, great profile, and access to end is acute ex-cel-lent. For apprentices shredders broke, it's perfect.
Perhaps a bit heavy compared to others but it is not overly tiring.

Only HUGE default, the Floyd is frankly not good and even well-tuned, it goes wrong too fast.
So, its impossible to get a really clean, simply play a note using resonant strings all because of that damn bridge at a discount. Live, we do not necessarily lend attention, but not for me to make a solo recording quality with this kind of stuff.

SOUNDS

I've mostly metal with this guitar (in a style rather heavy) and this guitar I helped out a good time. Instead, go your way if you hope to play with her clear. The sustain is very small (the bridge, it still ...) and it is not easy even though the sound with a tone knob unbalanced! This forces me to have to catch up on all amplifiers or consoles, and if I get a decent sound on my bass, it is often at the expense of my highs and vice versa.
Fortunately, the five-way offers many possibilities of sound that can sometimes compensate for a delicate balance.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for five years.
I love its comfort and speed that you get on the stick, but I like the sound a lot less when I move away from the rock / metal, and more ...

But the price / quality ratio is very honest. I think I would do if the choice to do it again and had the same budget)!

The same guitar without Floyd and a few dollars less would be terrible, but here I find a shame to ruin a guitar, however well designed because of this "little" detail.
