    Precision of importance that guitar is not made in Japan but in Korea.

The handle is U-shaped plutt

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is at first trs enjoyable touch of the nature of the wood used (SLAR) and satin finish varnish that leaves your left hand slides easily along the shaft. But alas - Funny for a guitar of this price (999.00 euros), the frets are not polished on the edge of the handle. This serious and hard makes the game particulirement dsagrable. Ergonomics and weight are known to the standard Fender.
    The three pickups are Seymour Duncan, not Fender. Deuxime dception big because we have not waited for the sound of a Start. The sound is trs acute cold and aggressive in the slecteur intermdiaires positions (position 2 and 4) you do not get that famous Fender's (opposite phase). However we get a sound that could come close (???) humbucking pickups and playing with the markers of tonality can get a little jazzy sound (???)

    SOUNDS

    The sound obtained due to me completely sold a guitar this price. I play in my amp currently on a VOX Valvetronix AD30VT. With several Fender Start: Amrican Standard, 3 and 2 Japanese Mxicaines I am done with this guitar.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This guitar has a flattering look trs but does not ring. I Whereas it has a trs bad relationship quality price and I would advise any buyer to turn to the same MODELS Japanese Used found on the market a price range of 450 680 euros. The 60th anniversary specially assembled in Mexico do not score as 649.00 euros, and it sounds better. That's it says ...

    Made in Korea.

    Koa table and back.
    For the rest is making "classic" and should not stops as the word "Coren", the cliché "American" = the top ... it would be a coronation error.

    To be honest, the level of finish with the handle bird eyes is at least as good as my standard amricain 2001 .. and much better than my 1995 Mexican .. (but that sounds! otherwise I would have more now).

    In short, the effect of bird eyes is more beautiful and the bonus round does not move a hair.

    Other dtail, the bridge is blocked by two springs on my 3 cons amricaine .. and surprise when I bend with this limited edition koa note of spin, does not lose accuracy .. when I do the same thing with my few American or ropes used the notes spin and I must connect .. so I made a small wooden key that I hold Behind the easel to maintain the accuracy of the note is amricain .. .. a..

    Briefly, the guitar is its weight but it is certainly not unbearable especially in view of this guitar's strengths.

    the varnish is superb and is not very sensitive to microrays, so good quality.

    Get a good sound?

    and how! more muscular than average but the foil is the strat and bonus I have no breath. always the same pouting face incomprhension Previous notice.

    SOUNDS

    If you like rock, blues, funk ... it's punchy guitar and transperant you. Metal & co I do not think that is adapted

    clear sound with this guitar is often like a Start splendid and very balanced. The notes are just all over the neck.

    In its saturated the harmonic potential is monstrous, it's simple I love to has!

    I play for info on an old music industry MI 750, with a large 15 "unusual .. um ... it's beautiful

    OVERALL OPINION

    5 years that I play with without me tired, it takes much more than the blow to me and it Fidler. I do him honor because I think the series amricaines are not always better .. this guitar is a good example.
    quality price ratio very honnte, I pay 1000 euros and I for my money. this is not a purchase that I regret!

    do again?

    without hesitating. more visually .. she throws every time I play a friend with it I still have the same raction "Hua, she is gorgeous .. oh I had not seen the finish of the race , excellent "IN GENERAL .. and they do not make the difference with amricaine nor sound, nor the violin ..

    story of "market" all a. ..
