UTILIZATION

I also possde an old skyscraper type strato and I must say that has changed a lot.
The SZ520QM possde a quick mache got my (and I'm the type to make excs speed when I go solo), it holds well in hand, neither too fat nor too thin.
What type Les Paul (but faster).

Easy Access in acute arch (neck-through profile.

Question I find the correct weight (lighter and compact than my strato type).

The management of microphones may be a little dlicate, I took some time to myself (too much treble or too serious) but once you know a metering rolls alone.

Passes without any problem: the Malmsteen solos, chords, arpges, harmonics etc ...

SOUNDS

Being versatile and not a scratch forcment pt of Tunis, I searched a guitar goes everywhere and affordable ... and I must say that SZ520QM is what I want.

I use it with a small Roland Cube-30 and everything going on with a:

- Its clear the slecteur in high position, you get good sounds, round, soft, warm bass of the lower limit if we push the knob back.
Position intermdiaire microphones splittent automatically give its own, ideal for arpges and agreements.
I use some trs in the low position is clear because I think the sound is too loud and tends snapping the ears. However, if you push the knob to the minimum we cut the treble and you end up with a sound quite interesting bunch.
PS: I push the personal rverb Cube-30 of my background and I find myself in Znith, the sound is IDAL for small acoustic blues and gypsy solos or Hispanos.

- Saturated in its lower position to become serious normment Submitted (watch what they do not become too), ability to palm-mute standards.
In Splitt sounds become thinner but remain trs offensive styles arpges possibility of Muse.
In the down position there is more that let go a lengthy solo, the bte rpond the finger and the eye, the possibility of Jimmy Page solos, Matthew Bellamy, Angus Young etc..

OVERALL OPINION

I possde for 2 months and I do not regret at all at all at all.
Instead, every night when I get home from work and I look at it is that once fell in love ds and the scratches she surprises me even more than before.

It can play anything, it is super enjoyable, it is beautiful to watch.

I advise all those who want a versatile guitar an affordable price (I paid 525 with the cover, the jack and strap 3m).

Strongly tonight that I find it ;-)
