Mahogany body shame that it is as fragile as it has no coating on the body.
Maple neck / rosewood

UTILIZATION

Channel ultrathin very pleasant. Agree perfectly for the speed, the metal but also blues, rock, jazz etc ...
Access to acute is perfect.
Level ergonomic guitar is beautiful, it has a mahogany body. There is no polish on the body is very beautiful but hello scratches during transport. Otherwise it is super light.
This guitar is built for fast games mainly metal but it is very versatile. Plugged into a good all-tube amp (Peavey 6505 style, Laney or Mesa Boogie) send it!

SOUNDS

I play mostly instrumental rock and metal is perfect.
Plugged into a Marshall tube amp it sounds really hell. To inflate the disto I took a DOD YJM Overdrive 308 but I use it very rarely.
I play as much as its clean with distortion. I can both have a very specific and pushing the amp have a very fat (personally I do not like too much).

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year now. I saw that Herman Li Dragonforce played with the group and for that I am a fan I jumped at the chance. I'm really on it. I played on current production models Sabre Korea and there is a very clear difference.
New it cost 1200 euros at the time I bought used 650 euros. I have not hesitated again the same choice.
