This little gem is made in Japan.
24 jumbo frets, 2 Seymour Duncan humbuckers (L I'm not too much of a Sh1n in the neck position and a TB-4 in the bridge position.) Slcteur A three positions I have to say enough Aesthetics ^ ^
Equipped with a beautiful pink floyd. I do not know the exact MODEL but it looks great! The agreement is, the tuning is not moving. In short, what rve!
2 knobs, 1 volume and 1 Tone Systm with push / push a little bug that sometimes (once the button is up, it is sometimes difficult to go ....)
Handle varnished profile round but not much. Even when it remains fairly flat trs to play fast.

I put 8 in the push / push gche really all that.

UTILIZATION

I t very surprised, it is quite lgre from other guitar that I used. The weight is very well rpart, no problem. Once standing, what is funny is that we do not lose speed, it is also easy to play seated.
The handle is enjoyable trs, trs we enter the high end in ESP. Access in acute trs is also good, I think we could add 2 or 3 frets without ESG has not.
Otherwise not much to add ... I put 10/10 on this, I have not found a default ...

SOUNDS

Time to get srieuses: the sounds.
This is a guitar that fits perfectly what I play: to know the Nightwish, Children of Bodom, Steve Vai ....
_In Neck position is a rgale!! This gives her a trs round without much effort rglage. Once the microphone splitter (By pressing the push / push) We keep a good sound but much more trs attack near the stratocaster everyone connate. In his rendering is quite saturated bizare. I do not know how dcirre, I would say it looks like the micro lack of power. Well, it is a position that I love.

_The Position intermdire I do not like it at all. The sound is trs (too) mtalique. It sounds a little too much crunch my taste. Once Splitt is even worse, the sound is hyper mtalique ....... : S with distortion, however, we get a sound pretty cool to be between the blues and rock.

_The Bridge position, the most beautiful! The sound is extremely powerful and round, it's unbelievable. Harmonics out perfectly either in clean or saturated. Trs powerful riffs are Excellent in Palm mute the power place the microphone in obviousness. This position is PERFECT !!!!!

I put 9 / 10 because of this position intermedire I do not like.

OVERALL OPINION

This is a guitar that I use for exactly 1 year. I had tried in the store and I won t! it rpondait my requirements perfectly. Still, I try many of MODELS ibanez, jackson, etc. .... but she had the best sound. I recommend this guitar I find exceptional for this price! I would do gladly did!
