24 frets, Bolt is not much to say except that it is pretty well finished and trs!

UTILIZATION

The handle is relatively flat is wider than a Start '. It is easy to play and Most recent internship accssibles boxes are very easy. For my part, I have small fingers so the ACCS in Box 24 on the low E is avoided, but it's not REALLY important.
The weight is not binding and is well balance.

SOUNDS

I play mostly metal, without it being an obsession: I also play the Floyd, Funk, Hard Rock. It runs on a single mesa boogie and before grinding, a Marshall Valvestate VS65R.
The pickups are original trs property, even if multi-center position is a bit feeble (it's a micro "Rail"). I kept one and I told him then put that same microphones Michael Romeo (Symphony X). A ToneZone the handle (this is also the micro Paul Guibert), in a X2N Chevallet (micro Ceramic - more than EHJV EMG81) all from DiMarzio. As the microphone was central, I put a YJM (Yngwie Malmsteen signature - as in DiMarzio). It's a magical sound. The center position is a bit feeble compared to the other but it is acceptable. Otherwise, it's an overkill, prcis, enjoyable. In addition, the deuxime position (neck + central) is plain and snapping trssduisante. To play in crunch, blues, Floyd, etc.. trs is clean.

OVERALL OPINION

I have five years and I do not dferai. I also have an ESP-SV (with EMG81), it is much less versatile and the sound is less personal. It is a very easy guitar, playable with sound charming regardless of amp or multi-purpose. Combines with a direct line all-tube amp, it's a bewitching that I have not yet returned. I tried a Jackson Soloist rcemment and I t the immensment. This ESP is related qualitprix trs attractive, it quickly falls in love ... trs too!
