UTILIZATION
For my part I bought this guitar is undisputed fan of Satch,
I went to Paris, only owner of this guitar, I arrived in the store, I saw the beautiful guitar of my dreams hanging on a stand, his sparkling red so convinced that this was THE guitar that would change my life I asked to try and .. Total Disappointment ... No sensations "exceptional", the impression of a good scratch but no more! By simple reflex I thought first that it was not the guitar! After all, each model is "unique"! So I went back in other stores looking for good JS LA but nothing has .. Though I tried JS1200 or the JS24p always the same opinion was "uh .. I do not know there .. "nothing special ..
Unfortunately, given this incredible disappointment I tried more than 20 guitar just after but I was so attached to the JS I finally bought the blindness as a child wanting the same costume superheroes are preferred even if it does not suit her (funny good example but that was it!)
I thought it would be a matter of time, he had to play to get used to and feel the quality, but as time passed and it confirmed my first impression, even worse ..
SOUNDS
I play mainly Satriani, now a little over Guthrie Govan (if you do not know I strongly suggest you go listen to this killer ..)
I played with a Fender tweed, another fender super 60 combo amp Koch (no Boch) Combo Marshall JCM900 and PODxt directly on the PA
At first I loved the sound of DiMarzio PAF joe quite warm and round like for Fred but gradually as time is not satisfied with this guitar, the sound became more and more hateful to me too ... "compressed"
As owner of the Satchurator .. It was worse! Satchurator gives the sound too loud, too sharp even with other guitars but then this one .. I do not understand whatever settings nothing would!
If you're used to playing on 10-46 I do not advise you at the base it was mounted 9-42 (Satriani plays on spaghetti unfortunately .. But he knows how to make it sound!) I am spent on the 10-46 cata ... Hello! the handle has taken a hit, too .. floyd result: Setting has to draw the objectives and floyd: @ I had to add springs!
Finally, the draft was too high for this guitar so I went on the 9-46 which was limited but nicer still
OVERALL OPINION
I bought it in December 2013 to € 1800 and is foutage of mouth, she did not really true at all.
I no longer play with, I was on the verge of snapping the ground:'')
I bought this guitar "blindness" but the basis for sound Satch,
If you wanted the same look no further ... it's all in the fingers.
I should think and realize that before buying this guitar.
Update the look that stays beautiful in my eyes, the illusions are gone.
I am now more confident with my fingers rather than my naive kid, a good life lesson that cost me 1,800 balls.
I try desperately to sell, the more time passes the more I lower the price ..
I went there a few days on a guitar, it makes costs more but it was worth it: a Charvel San Dimas made in JAPAN.
There I really found my bearings there and I'm sorry to tell you but for € 5,300 occas' with Seymour Duncan I find more sound Satch with the JS DiMarzio 1800 € .. C is it just suits me better (wider handle, lightweight scallopage from the 12 fret, original floyd ...) we feel here the real work of a luthier quality.
I would do anything in this unnecessary purchase that cost me an arm and a challenge ..
Conclusion: It's all in the fingers, the guitarist who gives the sound the guitar and not the reverse does not try to reproduce the exact sound of the album JOE, focus on your own sound, your own emotions, music is a matter of sincerity nothing else!
