UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, thin, flat, access to acute is relatively easy. The guitar is well balanced but it is quite heavy. The ergonomics of the guitar is very good, one is in any position.

SOUNDS

I am playing mostly metal, but also all (rock, pop, jazz guitar ,...), is a very versatile compared to its price. The neck pickup is good, the microphone in the middle is simply a lot to get clean sounds simpas by microphones against the bridge is to go to the big rock but for the specific metal is not the top (it is correct anyway).
I liked the sound of the guitar overall but I still invested in acitfs EMG: EMG 85/81 kit and an EMS S in the middle and there I must say it has transformed my guitar into something really not wrong. Always with this versatility.
As against the floyd is pretty bad, it is not very good agreement when used. As against the scratches do not go out of tune if you do not use it ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years, I like the scratches, both in aesthetics at the level of sounds (with EMG active of course).
Very good value for money, neither better nor worse than other brands at this price (Cort, LTD, Jackson, Yamaha, Shecter ,...) at this price can you ask for more?
With the experience that I would be without a scratch floyd, at this price, it is useless.
Otherwise, I would change my guitar but only for a fairly high-end (probably luthier).
