Korean model (I think), in its first line, ie without Floyd (not to use vibrato without detuning). 24 frets, HSS config microphone, 5-way switch, two knobs. Body quite heavy and thick black color. Channel super flat and wide, very fast.
Finish suitable for the price, beautiful painting. Correct mechanical, metal knobs solid, reliable selector. Attaching the handle a little "rustic" (no bevel on the heel)
This was my first "real" guitar (after having two dung of a thousand bales), bought new, with whom I learned a lot. When I got it, I felt back in the big leagues! Great for the budget of the time (2500 balls).
UTILIZATION
The handle is very special very flat, it gives an impression of width rather disconcerting! Hard to change when scratching is used to handle ...
The latter are quite sensitive to acute use. Access is OK but no more. Ergonomics is good but the body is heavy and thick, which looks weird compared to the handle end.
This guitar is very reliable: no problem in several years of use. The knobs are smooth and the selector does not break. Mechanics are correct and the jack does not move.
The vibrato is zero (not Floyd that year, I recall) but just not to use it ...
SOUNDS
So there it is gate. If you only know its sounds, this guitar can get away with. If you listen to much more expensive guitars, or if you play again with the scratch after having tasted better, as I do, you are perceiving that sounds really means.
With the distortion that disgusting messes up the nuances, it passes. But plain or crunchy, it perceives the price of the beast! The humbucker does what it can, it's still happening. But simple is not really extra .... Clearly, the transition from micro to another does virtually no change in her is saying!
OVERALL OPINION
I always have this guitar, c fun to take it from time to time. The latest models may have changed from the "old" version.
In fact, I was one day left to buy a few years ago as it had put a Floyd on it. And then I flashed the store on a Jackson DK Japan 92. Result: nothing to do! A super Floyd, incomparable sound and much better quality. It'll be ten years since I played it and I can not find better than out 2500 euros.
Conclusion: The PS2 is great for small budget but do not have any illusions. TFW by changing the pickups, it would be easier, but the violin is worth it the effort? That said, Jackson is something else even qd Ibanez in the same price range ...
