Made in Japan by the factory mre ESP.
Table in Alder
Maple neck 24 frets 3-roomed screwed Jumbo, matt varnish
Maple fingerboard (for mine) but there with rosewood (less brightness).
Original Floyd Rose (a must)
2 EMG81 active pickups (with a pi-cell type playskool)
Key Gotoh
1 volume knob
Tone of 0 (we will correct with an amp)
A slecteur 3 positions

For who does not like black guitar, must go to the US custom shop, not necessarily more expensive and better finished!

I put 9 out of 10 for the absence of knobs of Tone

UTILIZATION

Ct use BUG!! my girlfriend is jealous, since my happens IBD is home, I never leaves her side, long live the dishwasher!
More srieusement, level of finish quality, the Japs do not care really not our mouths ... just irrprochable, varnish, hardware keys Gotho and Original Floyd Rose, one feels that it is not you p ter hands. Book gives a pretty all right Hard Case with a Floyd Rose Original rgl tip-top, this is a scratch vritable plug and play! I have a gibson junior and I can say that level Premire printing (Hard Case, Tuning, protection, etc. ...), ESP Kilomtres the above (the Japs are strong), which does increase consumer confidence in the eyes of the firm.

Good move on the marketing and dtails coming to the point, what you INTERESTED, what is worth? Well, I do not know if j&#39;tais cuckold the day on I tried it but after 2 minutes of use capella without amp (it&#39;s like we&#39;re trying a guitar) I almost made a stain on my pants so I was lucky to come across this guitar ... Oh Yeah! sustain the prsicion and brightness of the sound are waiting for you!!

The handle is Saddle varnish and screwed (not personal like the glue on the handle end) and NeckThruBody (race driver) 400 again, not worth the trouble, I tried 2, which is a shame to lose the quality and the default table. Brief return to the handle ESP Saddle, all the guitars I test it owns and by far my sleeve prfr you play just about what is best in Mati re handle fast if you do not like the sleeves for, go your way. The sustain is the what they say, not really, it&#39;s the handle of the guitar sduit me the most. CHAC is to dernires nickel frets even when you have large fingers like mine and you have the ear a little slow!

Ergonomics is tip-top, we forget that it has been in the hands and the light weight of this guitar is an asset on scne the quilibrage is pil-haired, she is right even APRS several beers (did not actually drink too much pain overdose of microphones), the form is that of a stratum, and personal like the head of the aggressive guitar, with the keys inverss!

The body is alder for excellent craftsmanship, sustain, precision, and the brightness is still rel everything I love in a guitar! The table is cut to a CASC to 20th frets easier. Fans of Gibson and Cleaver will be lost ... yes, yes a single volume knob, when I tell you it&#39;s a guitar plug and play! But it has the advantage of being serious prcis and does not lose too much tonal. RAS on the Toggle switch (it&#39;s a toggle switch).

I therefore look forward to plug into an amp for lamps (throw your transistors, transistors / lamps, and other modlisation is poop) my music store to hear prfr bte .

SOUNDS

That&#39;s it I plug this marvel of a Mesa Boogie 5:25 ET l WAhouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, I sound like Metallica! The two are the EMG 81 for procs that you have with your neighbors saturax, adcoiffe, prcis ultra sound (so it is better to play prcis) and of METAL! I test the application on an amp bte more conventional lamps and certainly less expensive. A peavey classic 30, and no surprises saturation TRS outputs as well, good bass, not too many mid (dpend of rglage) and make plans trebble tapping all night! !

Well, as everyone knows, this guitar is first made for big sounds very full, for the distortion in big-rock and hard rock and heavy returns mtal has all the other guitars in the strings (no guitar), and no risk of having bees around you!

But since I do not play as nag, I pass a clean sound, and even surprise from what I heard on the EMG 81, the sound is not at all cold or hot either, let&#39;s say it&#39;s tide! Keys Rabl (like the handle) correct a little problem of the coldness of EMG 81 in the clear to leave a much more bright and hot! And yes, a sound not too bad in the clear with IBD affects Rabl (these Japs are really strong), but let it be said, the EMG81 does not compete with or SH1n SH4JB in clean !

However, blues, jazz, arpges, and natural harmonics can therefore be played out and more than adequately for a little as we know rgler the amp. And still dpend the amp you use it day and night. Have a look on Ytube cuerdasoxidas and type you can get an IDE coupled with IBD podlive can produce many sounds diffrent without losing his own guitar.

In conclusion, I would say that even when the saturated ground and prdilection. But other styles can be around and the sound can s&#39;avrer INTERESTED. In any case, this guitar is not for people looking for vintage sound, warm but plutt for guitarists who want to be the same as Kirk Hammett is the new sounds (like me) in several styles.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this marvel for 2 months and I&#39;m not PRS me spare. I jou on Ibanez RG, Gibson Junior, Fender Start and Yamaha T, and I can say at the level of playing comfort and the quality of the neck, this guitar is by far the best. I test the horizon II without floyd, I have less AIM handle (yes, really) even if it is also amazing with its varnish spcial (trs are really strong these japs ). The guitar is really excellent qualitprix invoice for the report. And sound, although the latest puts everyone at the fine saturation, and suggests untapped possibilities in sound clear. If you like the vintage sound, this guitar is definitely not for you at all in absolute (that&#39;s clear!).

In conclusion, I would say that you can go there with closed eyes, this skyscraper is gniale, the test and you make chque illico, and if you can pay in installments when it is better 1390 same ... Report Qualitfinition / sound / price the best in the world (ARE REALLY SELLING THESE ULTRA MEGA JAPS)
