Made in Japan by Team J-Craft, the makers of the Japanese brand Paco (Ibanez ^ ^). Sipo body, maple table, maple neck / walnut into five parts.
A floyd Edge Pro, that I must get used to resolve ...
Channel Wizard, the aptly named Highway: me anyway, I like.
24 large frets, 2 humbuckers DiMarzio / IBZ with allen studs (with U.S. standard grrrrr).
1 volume, 1 tone, 1 5-way selector (bridge / double handle + splitted bridge / neck + bridge double / double handle in parallel with each coil / double handle)
For those who do not want to read it the same as the picture!
UTILIZATION
The handle is a delight, access to great highs, thanks to the contouring of the body-neck junction, is inspired by the JEM and it shows. I do not have a big belly, but the muzzle of the body is still welcome, as well as that of the table (which is specially cut for you can not see the body O_O that is to say that she makes the same angle as the bevel), and good sound, as long as you have a good amp behind, is easily obtained (I know I have a MG30DFX Marshall amp and also a great lamps that no knows, a crate vintage club 5O watts).
The Floyd, the way it is designed, let the lever completely free, which is quite annoying, and sometimes the switch gets stuck between two positions.
SOUNDS
I play blues-rock, fusion and sometimes heavy: it works well for that!
The sounds are well oriented rock music anyway ... Know what you want!
At first I just hallucinating when I tried to type (I bought secondhand, it is more in nine), she was in D, it sounded quite heavy, but now all is well she is back in Mi
I mostly play with my Crate amp (quoted above), and I get sounds that are depending on my mood: sometimes jazz, funk, fusion, heavy, the Vai, blues (by lowering the volume to 1 we believe a telecaster with good treble that hurt the ears), 70's rock.
M'enfin, in my opinion, with any guitar, you can do any style. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Those who do not want to go into a little theory, which are insensitive to listen to a instrument, they are limited to this.</span>
The guitar has a balanced spectrum, with some extra treble and bass and less, due to construction of the neck, both maple and screwed. Besides, she has a lot of attack, but it is also due to the microphones I think. With the rosewood, the sound is hot on the high notes, and the sustain is good, thanks to the rosewood and Sipo, and good portion of it they have put into the body. The high-mid invite themselves without too many problems, but for me they are still building on my amp, that sound is dirty. The low-mids are present, fairly round, aggressive when he wants.
Artificial harmonics out fairly easily (2.0 mm plectrum <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" /> ). In his clear, there can be a bit of everything, but are not neutral, and so is the saturation, but for the neo-metal, is missed. For progressive metal, it goes very well.
Harmonics on the frets out very well (it also surprised me upon first listen), and the effects of vibrato style Vai, Satriani, etc. ... going very well.
OVERALL OPINION
For now, I still have a little trouble because I never had before floyd, I must make me a wedge, and all ... Pffffffouuu ...
It's been three weeks since I have it, I was off on some other guitars, but they either had no vibrato, no body is African Mahogany (Sipo I speak for all at the Hour ) or they were too expensive for my budget.
I bought 850 euros, it's still an investment, but it's half as expensive as new ...
Moreover, in nine is overpriced, the handle into five parts which have different lines, added tips on the head for it to have good shape ... But the body is in two parts, which is something ...
So, objectively, OCCAZ 10 for, 7 for nine.
It's been an average of 8.5, I round up to 8 because it's closer to my overall opinion.
