Well first of all, let us form over substance: THE FIRST thing that pageantry is the beauty of the instrument, beautiful colors and finishes impccable (https://fr.audiofanzine.com/membres / index, idmembre, 65730.html)
Made in Japan, it is a weighing stratode lev enough without being a container but not more!
The wood body (alder), it is quite transparent transcribed many nuances of the game and the harmonics but not as hot as mahogany for example.
The handle is in Rabl (rosewood fingerboard), it is 24 frets and dot the decor typical of shark teeth. The icing on the "hose", the magnificent head inclined typical Jacksons. This is a Bolt.
Regarding the pickups, the configuration is S / S / H. All of Duncan Designed (Drive the famous Seymour Duncan). Otherwise, slecteur microphone position 5, 1 Tone knob, Volume 1.
A yes, I forgot, an excellent licensed floyd rose bridge is complete the picture. The above, no complaints!

UTILIZATION

Well where to I start? Move the handle. The 24 frets are all accessible, no problem, wood sliding reasonable without being a skating rink (which just be annoying when you sweat the mimine, yes? And then!). The handle is flat, a little bomb on the Ibanez, I find it more comfortable for the bars and agreements as it has better support.
Then the weight, and much to my faith will see caractrisitques (I t the early age on this one), you can play this sitting or standing without scratching problem, in the shower or making pear is a bit harder but its still playable (Those who have believed will make me run some solo Satriani).
Finally, the sounds can be obtained according to Varis are trs select the microphone (this time those who believed me it is). The view of the tuning is good no-problem (thank you blocked-strings), only small problem is that the guitar comes with the strings a bit too far from the handle. We must bring them together.

SOUNDS

Sound, the most important part? surely.
First of all I want to emphasize the versatility of the guitar. Simple micro can get pretty warm are clear with lots of bass, but avoid distortion as in most simple. The Humbuncker, more acute and the sound has emerged over EHJV and dynamism, switch to bridge pickup when you put the distortion. However, it was a little less than a micro DEFINITIONS simple. These microphones are correct, but the change probably would increase the quality of sound.
Finally, good sustain and a bright sound and deep caractrise guitar.
Obviously, this is a Jackson and it adapts perfectly to the style of music people thick (mtal hear). Well, 8 because changing the pickups would be better ca. Finally, I feel that the sound is dug in lgrement mdiums giving it a nice particularity.
** Addition: 1year APRS is s'aperoit the bridge pickup is rather limited level potato (APRS have tried other guitars), he must not have a winning standard. **

OVERALL OPINION

It's been four months that I possde, no problem, except that famous knobs. So for that matter: NOT bother to buy a! Simply dvisser and deliver it straight, turning APRS eat ... (4 months APRS have REVISS correctly, no problem, so try before you cry wolf! ) ** addition: 1year 1 / 2 now **
Good quality RAPORT price for a guitar of this finish and a beautiful violin trs.
I pay 600 (Crimson swirl color), it ranges from 500 to 750 depending on the graphics.
I am satisfied with TRS, but perfection does not exist: I put 9.
The BMOL is the bridge pickup.

** 2 years later, I pass on Vigier but I can confirm that the handle is still extremely enjoyable Jackson, and sounds typical of Jackson gives it its charm **
