Ibanez S470DXQM

I'll let you watch the view Previous

UTILIZATION

Perfect, there's no other words, the handle is perfect and super fast with a good ACCS to acute but if less accessible because of my other guitar (an Epiphone G400-). Trs enjoyable has played with the finesse of his body that did not pnalise in weight. Inconvnient only is change the strings, but it's just a matter of habit, not very practical in concert.

SOUNDS

I play instead of Hard and does pretty good with a Marshall amp and a pedal MG100DFX Zoom 606 even if I find that the micro may lack a little of PCHE

OVERALL OPINION

I had to choose again I would do it again without hsiter so it is enjoyable and has played all want to give to her by her esttique.

UTILIZATION

Channel ultra fast and precise, easy access to acute (it's not a neck through but hey ....)
-A marvel of form and ergonomics, lightweight guitar!! Beautiful finishes
Sustain-Good! (Maple table) despite the ZR tremolo floating
Vibrato ulta-smooth and precise

SOUNDS

For my style of zik (polyvalent metal), a DiMarzio FRED in the bridge was welcome, but for hard rock, rock, pop blues, jazz that's enough.

ENGL SCREAMER used one, great! it sounds great! Very good midrange and bass HIGH LEAD / micro FRED His crystal-clear and clean in hot!
The neck pickup sounds very very hot round with a high output level! especially in the clear!

For the bridge pickup gives a good sound without too much fat adjustments (slight lack of precision even qd) and output level not super high.

Just in the middle is feeble and noisy (brrr zzz hmmmm) it goes but I do Rhythmic used for certain that I want to ring round and warm (think of a noise gate

OVERALL OPINION

I use dpuis 1 year
less: 23 frets, bridge and middle pickups a bit light!
The most: the rest
Excellent value for money
I would do this if I had the choice OCCAZ! I have two months to decide and me to try other guitar.
I had a budjet of ca 1200 euros left me 400 euros for other purchases!
make the right choice!
IN ADDITION IT IS SUPER NICE!

- In which country was it made? (United States, Japan, Mexico, France ...)
Korea

- How many frets, what kind of micro as well as their configuration?
22 frets, 2 humbucker INF1 and INF2, and a simple INFS1.

- What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?
Floyd Rose.

- What are the settings (volume, tone, micro switch ...)?
2 buttons volume / tone, a 5-way switch.

- What type of race?
Flat and super fast!

UTILIZATION

- The handle is it fun?
Ultra fast, it requires a little adjustment ... about 5 minutes!

- Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?
No complaints on this point

- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
Very light guitar, which is very well the position that you want (unlike my Epiphone G400 itchy nose very easily ...)

- Gets it easy to sound good?
The distortion is very good: everything to the grave and go!
For its clear, it is more difficult to get a really nice sound, but not impossible!

SOUNDS

- They are suitable to your style of music?
That's what I wanted for my group (shot Rock / pop / metal), and I finally have found a distortion attacking enough.

- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
A 100W Hiwatt G100 112R

- What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
Well for the fat distortion, ideal for metal, putting the bass forward. The clean sound is less beautiful and you have to play the tone of the guitar to get something clean. But this guitar is not for the clear sound ...

- What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
The distortion is its advantage, it's no problem. The clear sound is definitely its weak point, although, again, no one buys this skyscraper to play gypsy jazz

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
2 weeks

- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I tried a jackson (but I forget the model) and a Fender Strato, both in the € 700 / 800.

- How would you rate the quality / price?
A little early to judge yet, but for now I'm not disappointed, quite the contrary!

- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Without a doubt!

UTILIZATION

-The handle is one of the highlights of this guitar, because it really is comparable to a highway, however it may require an adjustment period, because of its flat shape, for those who have the sleeves flat abitude

-This guitar is a gem of egonomie, extremely fine and very slight without removing the sustain one would expect from such an instrument. It's a really nice guitar playing

-Access to treble is more than adequate

SOUNDS

With the original Micro, the sound is already very good
I took me a Sh-1 in handle and a Tb-4 in bridge and it sounds ....
All played on an old marshall, we come to find very interresting sonnorités:
Sh-1 for the clean sounds or bluesy jug is very effective
the Tb-4 for tougher distos filled his contract: you get sounds like Guns, AC / DC, Aerosmith etc ... without any problem.

OVERALL OPINION

It'll be three years that I use this guitar and if I had the choice again, I buy it back without even hesiter.Elle is extremely enjoyable to play, the finish is exemplary and with ca Seymours in fact a weapon of first class .

For small problem against the stem vibrato sold a few months ago and I have to replace the (about 10 Euro). A by ca nothing to report
