24 frets

Screwed mahogany, such as Gibson LP quite different from what I know of Jackson
Diapason 25.5
Mahogany body
Ebony table, no inlays on the keys, tThe choli
No chamfer to the right forearm that may possibly interfere after qques hours (mouais..)
Simple, effective.

UTILIZATION

The handle is excellent, but everyone does not love, it is very close to a Les Paul, so quite round, I know that there are guitarists that can put off, even some that have real difficulties with this type of form. I personally have started on a LP I always do so this bothers me not at all, even for very planes (very) upset.
The guitar is light despite mahogany, it is far from just an LP! Also there is only one microphone.
Housing for easy cell opening: it is not required to take the screwdriver to change it: very good.
Yes we get a very good sound, especially saturated EMG81 course requires the value for money is very impressive.

SOUNDS

We can get a decent clean sound carefree kind usual arpeggio (heavy) metal heads, it is clear that this is not too shovel made to play pink floyd we get along well.
Suddenly not necessarily versatile, not funk with but hey, is this being asked?
No No No.

It happens that I have another dinky, the DKMGT, alder body Maple bolt-on neck Rosewood keys: they do not sound the same despite the same microphone (who said that sounded like EMG81 on all guitars? ?)

Mahogany is really his taf and adds a good layer of warmth in the bass and a kind of twinkle in high mids, very nice. With a good layer drive, has the same settings on the amp it has a more velvety than DKMGT its less "hard" (though I still like it I said).

Attention was not the "big heat" of a LP, this heat is not intrusive on metal bodies as the LP and so much better (weight of the guitar requires).

Not connected, this guitar resonates more than DKMGT, it has a very good sound "empty" feel it vibrates well, it reflects the vibrations of the strings.

Ebony keys are really nice and the guitar is very light.

The EMG81 does its job and is magnified by mahogany, it really is a good guitar for very wicked plans rhythm or solo Moreover, EMG81 can do anything.
Personally I see it more in rhythm because of its "fleshy" she distilled.
For me it happens all the heads on which I can connect: JVM410H, 5150, single correct (eg I do not like DKMGT on the front ... but DK6 going great)
A very good 9 simple and effective weapon of war!

It sounds great tuned down, I purchased the standard rising 13/66, really nickel but it is not necessarily my usual cup of tea, I'm 10/52 drop C # or C and I love !

OVERALL OPINION

That makes two weeks that I have but I really like and yet I have other more expensive guitars .. (LP, Lag, RR5, DKMGT)
I've qques records (micro) with and I am very satisfied.
The ratio Q / P is absolutely excellent, I would do without this choice problem (for mounting a EMG85 and / or other tuning / pulling ..)
If you are looking grattte to rock or heavier .... jump on it you will not regret it. This still scratching at the specs of ESP .... follow my eyes .....
Taking sufficient agreement even if it does not upscale Mecas.
The only negative I can think of is the same as on my other dinky, namely jack connection that crachotte after qques years, but good in the worst case is 7 euros ...
