UTILIZATION
put my grain of salt because I'm pretty disappointed with the violin of this guitar.
Some clarification: I bought it for € 350 OCCAZ, which is quite correct for this guitar. The new price of 700 € is a bit abused for the quality of the violin. Until now I was playing on Ibanez (including an Ibanez Prestige RGA-VLF that cost me € 650 brand new violin and whose quality is much better).
So here are all first flaws (It's my opinion, some may be characterized by other qualities):
- Mechanical vintage super painful. I can not hit the chopper to bring the strings without too much hassle.
- It is necessary to unscrew the handle in order to adjust the truss rod ...
- Besides, it will probably stick to the same address if your vendor has not done.
- It will also check the saddle, mine is too low.
- The bridges have been installed in the disorder, with those with long screws on the low E string and, what good taste you scratch your hand if you have not paid attention before leading palm mute. With shorter screws up, this problem is less ...
- The screw fixing the vibrato at the high E string is too close to the bridge of the same string and can come to hang it in a setting intonation.
- The result is a deplorable action and playability quite limited if you paid a high price for this guitar. If not considering the price that I paid for it bother me more than that actually ...
Neutral points:
- It is worthwhile to repeat the electronic mass star and a shield of the cavity to remove unwanted noise.
- Unidentified cause a tremendous amount of buggery high E string which I dare not even get on stage so it's reliable. My luthier says it's the bridge that we must file a little, and being shot with a mechanical vintage is not for nothing either.
- The junction is a good body handle large cube uncomfortable and awkward for access to acute. But Fender is good, it's like this ...
Strengths:
- Well, despite all that I have too many problems with the tremolo tuning does not move when I buggers around with.
SOUNDS
No problem on that side: it sounds Fender 60's as it should. Ca blues, funk and it rock it (dirty) to death according to your settings for saturation. In the register was Hendrix on the neck position, the position Knopfler neck / middle, roasters funk of Tower of Power or the sound of Wayne Krantz position middle / vibrato, a little Pink Floyd in all positions etc. .. .
All positions have their (very strong) personality, and ultimately that's why we love him and we care for all its faults.
Obviously the big problem is that the microphones simple, it does not make high output level, and when you plug this guitar into your amp set to eat big humbucker in the teeth, and although there is more person and it takes up all your winnings / volume ...
OVERALL OPINION
So I use it for 6 months I think. Up here I was playing on an Ibanez saber, an Ibanez RGA and an old Aria.
Its level is that this guitar has the most personality (And yet the RGA with a good pair of microphone is not far behind). Level violin is one which is worse ...
You'll understand: my opinion the value of nine prices is not worth the shot too. But OCCAZ and in good condition it does.
