Mid-range guitar, buy OCCAZ in 84 ... manufactures in Japan in 81.
Channel Saddle fawn Start ', vintage fender type bridge, the gilding do not.
Basswood body seems he dyed brown for mine (yuck), black plate.
A humbucker (bridge), 2 singles (middle and neck).
Volume control Tone and 5-way switch + split the bridge pickup.
Trs guitar sound (she saw all the colors, the handle has never moved

UTILIZATION

The handle is good without being a stick Start ', the patent silent too thick and adhrant: I sanded and re-satin ... Premire step of a long SERIES customization.
The guitar is very well balance, sound pretty versatile thanks to the silent DIFFERENT routing, but always a way ...
So I changed to a double Schaller ... then the simple ct round for a fender of OCCAZ ... And has felt much better!

SOUNDS

In the era I played in the cold wave and punk, and went well: an equalizer while the upper one flanger + lightweight ... and hop.
Then I ready-for years a hard rocker ... who maltreatment and above who has stored in a humic! Rsultat: Electronic nase, easel and mcaniques oxides ... but she is still alive and the handle is always right

DCID this year I do a Start '.
I therefore continued: dcapage full dcoupe new body, neck and head, sanding the bottom, adding a vintage vibrato Wilkinson (without the ctes, c 'silent hot!). Purchase micro type fender "Hot Start" at GFH, size of a new plate (better than a Start ', it is I who draw;)). Finished in white and chrome, it is beautiful as hell.

And it sounds!
I did not expect this level of amlioration. It sounds like a good strat say 'Mexican (the pickups are like TexMex). It confirms that the violin is correct to departure. The only thing that a spare fender true: sustain and far below, and you have to climb a little compressor gilmouriser

OVERALL OPINION

Most impressive in this guitar is its robustness.
This customization dernire the silent ... Ibanez one that will end in layers ', which j'espre my children play, their friends, saying "this is a vintage, an authentic 80', imagine, mortal !?!!"
