T says it all

Vibrato is a bte floating tremolo which I use no or low trs, by asking the problem rglage / dsaccordage I do not understand why they have not fucking fixed bridge instead.
Jmeter 8 because I saw quite a few guitars with a fixed bridge in this CATEGORY

UTILIZATION

Flat handle and enjoyable end, "Parquet" some would say

CHAC is good for no more acute, much better than squier and company anyway. The guitar is trslgre, I love the rounded shapes (type ibanez saber), this guitar has more class than dcoupes ibanez ax =)

This is a super playable guitar for this price range. Rglages the factory for my part taient trs means (action too high and over cooked spaghetti as a string) but change the strings and APRS rglage is the joy of playing it . We can not have a super low action without a frieze on the other hand, but I was good for me trs then I play with a light pull.

The sound is simple although the bridge pickup to get clear sound in such a will not, therefore, needed some rglages

SOUNDS

I play old rock / hard / blues mostly, it suits me well so far trs
I play on a Hughes & Kettner edition blue 60, in excellent clean channel, correct the lead

The micro tone is sharp and aggressive, rhythmic fun for the big one I use it for all the stuff somewhat aggressive / modern lead channel. But I find it too loud in the treble and I sometimes play with the Tone to overcome this. Clearly has not give much, too loud / slam for my taste.
Intermediate position handle / medium gives her a pretty Dfine that sounds a little vintage, less aggressive, I like to approach the Hendrix sound, may do so in clean or distortion
I use the microphone never simple and neck position / middle sounds are not INTERESTED trs.
The microphone provides a double bass sound a little stuffy I use it rarely in distortion and more I find that it lacks a bit of potato, for it is plain against the one I use as it is largely the case.

Brief me j'vite bridge pickup in the neck pickup clear and distortion in microphones of the scratches are not really that great but decent for the price (paid 235), I think that was worth to change, for the price of both new pickups jm'acheterais another scratched with a violin over heals =)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for six or seven months, about 2 hours per day
+: The shape, the sound not disgusting jouabilit for entry-level / -: that damn vibrato that causes me nothing but trouble

Also note that mine had a twisted neck that has a sleeve t replaced by new, I do not know if this problem is frquent but I said yes on this type of scraper

I especially compare Squier, and is well suprieure

The report is qualitprix top, keep in head he is not a guitar = 600euros)

With the other hand exprience jme TFW would turn to the occasion, there are tips and trs INTERESTED roro for a few more times you fall on the guitars of a different caliber
