UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, it is fine and can do things fast without getting too sore fingers.

each access to acute poses no problem at worst ca I sometimes have a hard time bender in the 24th box but nothing more (not sure that I&#39;d finish better with another model).

the shape is very modern and aesthetic (it&#39;s a "superstrate") notement thanks to the absence of plaque (I think it&#39;s too pat-a-l&#39;oeuil, but it is very subjective) and is Infinia lightest than I had before.

the vibrato is very effective (it&#39;s a real floyd rose pro I think), though a little hassle to change strings, having said before the guitar goes out of tune it will have well risen for some time but a small adjustment the fine tuner will put an early end. Apart from that one little push or pull on the tremolo without moods and with the frequency and power you want.

SOUNDS

I play metal and I am very satisfied with the V8 (bridge pickup), which leaves me a piercing sound and dynamic is good for its class (although it is certainly not a DiMarzio or otherwise) in any case it is close to meeting perfection all the little hacks like mediator tapping, hammer-and Pulloff bend.

I do not use much of the S1 (micro center) because my hope to see him play in effective light or simulate the sounds of acoustic guitar fell into the water (not dynamic enough, it&#39;s too bland), the coup I tend to play not only with the clear bridge pickup.

However the big disappointment for V7 (neck pickup) ----> me to expect a well rounded, very serious and heavy I have none of this even tampering with the pedal or the amp - ---> I parrait even less dynamic than my previous guitar which, however, was a model from start to gum. it is a pity that it seems to correctly answer notement mute but lacks clearly something for a real heavy sound.

OVERALL OPINION

It&#39;s been five years since I have this guitar.

what I like most is recess the bridge pickup (fortunately because it is one I use in 80% of more), the handle quickly and efficiently look good without being too aggressive or not too eccentric (no frills what ^ ^, although I find it less than a styler S or JS).

what I like least is the other 2 microphones (hyper deception for the neck pickup) and the fact that the strings be bothered to change with this system of bridge (but not very severe).

My previous guitar was a Stratocaster imitation ----> Lead Star as saying that the changes I immediately size (except that damned still neck pickup parru me immediately with its lighter than Yet very low quality of the lead star).
if I tried before an equivalent jackson (DK2 genre or something like that) but the bridge pickup I was much less tape and look very similar.

I paid 3000 USD this guitar used and it was worth every penny especially because I knew I would use the bridge pickup more than others.

I think I would do the same choice because at that price range I am not sure to find as well and with such a look, for cons I do not think changing the pickups, I&#39;d rather save directly to a JS ( or a good S I customizes equivalently later)

[edit] So here&#39;s time to pass from this view, be time I&#39;m playing better and better too, I learned to make use of the instrument, then:

- No solos to bridge pickup is actually with the neck pickup as I do, and if I thought it might be a little more bite and even when it is well to rvle good quality and correctly spell all that he asks

- By doing nothing against the medium, it&#39;s really a big stew .. it comes out of imitation strat force if his game a little or a rig that multiplies derrire but it&#39;s really the weak point of this guitar

- Obviously the violin is great, because the sustain is long enough and harmonics go alone, even without amp ^ ^

- I Second-hand to compare it with other more of Ibanez quality and the Epiphone Les Paul and Fender Stratocaster (can be "Mexico" but the real Fender, not Squier) and there&#39;s no picture even if the Start and Epiphone in question have their strengths indniables cot (its a bit more round and granular for Les Paul, more "vintage" for Start) .. .

- I would do much more sr elect now, but I would like to even change the pickups (especially the middle ... Texas Special rulezzz!) Spun him more personals and dynamics without change its versatilis but it is perfectly usable like that.

- Even if I keep it, I&#39;m not against me O customize a metal to be cut to 89 EMG, history to have more specially in the big sound, but otherwise I&#39;m having the same tr s satisfied that the [/ edit]
