Asian manufacturing high bill, neck 24 frets, 2 Seymour Duncan (sh1 round neck TB6) on tremolo is a real floyd rose, 1 volume 1 tone which is also the split button is a push-pull, flat handle a little strato type but much thinner and very fast

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice as we used to say "this is a true highway" because it's a guitar style that emphasizes the spirit shreader Joe Satriani Pink Floyd oblige! Accessibility acute very easy, body Basswood, maple neck, weight is very light and so we just use it for long periods of standing and without excessive fatigue; is obtained very easily a good distorted sound but it must be good to go with distortion

The handle is very nice as we used to say "this is a true highway" because it's a guitar style that emphasizes the spirit shreader Joe Satriani Pink Floyd oblige! Accessibility acute very easy, body Basswood, maple neck, weight is very light and so we just use it for long periods of standing and without excessive fatigue; is obtained very easily a good distorted sound but it must be good to go with distortion

SOUNDS

I use it mostly with a great field and as a fender hot rod deluxe, the sound is done before so it is best to have the amplifier as linear as possible in my case especially if the marshall is perfect, I use also with guitar rig for recording on the computer, otherwise with a pedal ds1, ds2 boss, mxr 104 and upstream a boss sd1 ca gives excellent results, I just ordered a satchurator esayée the music store this morning near home with me and believe me it is the best! For clean sounds the microphone is serious work and the split is approached many of the strata, but I do not think this is its primary, if not used with a TS9 is little also to blues and rock, but go rather see on the side of Roxanne in 1000 or Gibson for that (as long to find one good). Another little thing, the guitar came tuned and controlled in France in French shops, so absolute reliability

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 weeks and I also made a video on youtube with this one, (satch boogie arkane500 lag) will see if you have a moment. What I like least, and less the more I think I can find her fault ... and yet I had a good fifty guitars in the hands and I know quite a lot in this area. Level quality / price ratio has no hesitation especially in my case the seller was able to grant me an additional discount if the count of 899 euros alentaur list prices. With the experience I referrer that choice and I think even buy a Lag Roxanne1000 the same color purple haze (the big sister what!) Because it's really a guitar MA GNI FI THAT!

it is a beautiful manufactured in Korea and, it seems, re-tested in France.
It has 24 frets, has 2 pickups seymour duncan-(SH-PG1 in neck and bridge in TB6) with a 3-position selector, a volume knob and one tone (which is also used microphones splitter singles) pink floyd and a standard.
for configuring the switch to position microphones before, it was; neck pickup, 2, bridge pickup.
when you pull the tone knob, it splits the 2 microphones in singles.
making a total of 6 possibilities, which is more than enough to play all the music you love!
The handle is of modern type, end, fast, highly accurate intonation and frets.

UTILIZATION

The handle is super comfortable!

UTILIZATION

The handle is super comfortable!
Increasingly, the head of the guitar is very well designed and is a true pleasure to view!
access to treble is very good.
weight is really his advantage; because it is made of lime, it gives it lightness that did not Arkaan 1000.
I love the cut of the general shape of this guitar, horns and lower suprérieure, head, body with chamfered this beautiful flamed maple top, frankly, must be crazy to miss!
for sound, it has everything it takes under the hood to play in all styles, rhythmic funk, blues, hard rock pretty well saturated and clean sounds when splits the pickups!

SOUNDS

it is perfect for what I want in the style guitar instrumental style Steve Vai and Joe Satriani.
I played on a marshall JVM that sounded great with this grain surly saturation.
I do not remember much of all the sounds (I tested it last Friday!) and I can say that we can tackle any style of music if you want and if you have the technique to beautiful ring!
I love all the sounds on this guitar!
I loved the clean sounds splitted; great to play funk rhythms and arpeggios!

OVERALL OPINION

I tested in stores last week and I liked everything on it!
floyd the great! is the first time that I play seriously with a guitar!
is an understatement!
I could finally try to imitate the madness of my mentor Steve Vai with a floyd, which holds very well the agreement and the road!
I do not remember myself so much fun in decades on a guitar like that!
and I'm not kidding when I say!
the pickups are great at noise level and even aesthetic!
I like this cover special seymour-duncan, he looks like a les paul!
sounds are great (see above), the guitar is beautiful, what do you want more?!
I tried many guitars and I think all of the lag are very well built.
I think they bury the competition by far!
where can I find a guitar shaped with both pickups seymour-duncan, a pink floyd-standard, a flamed maple top price of 839 € in stores?
In any case, not with ibanez, before having a guitar of this quality, it costs at least 1000 €.
with the experience I have lived with this Arkaan 500 and 1000 (I tested that too), I am seriously thinking to buy a Arkaan, but, for that matter, a 3000 made in France in purple it is really a choice more seriously than it is a true investment that you will not regret your purchase!
Try run the store, you'll see what it's worth!

I was looking for a guitar strato type with a beautiful transparent finish, a team pink floyd, East mtal but not too much (I did not want emg ..). On these points the Lg me fills a big plus for the finish (mine is orange)!
It's a 24 fret guitar, Seymour Duncan team splittable by push-pull slecteur 3 positions, pink floyd ... in short, everything for 800 only, it is believed dreaming ..

UTILIZATION

The neck is very pleasant, quick, perfect for the lead part very fast.
The guitar is trslgres (fairly small too), I really like the ergonomics of this guitar.

SOUNDS

This guitar suits me perfectly for the metal, but also all the other kind that I can practice. By fiddling a little amp and especially micro, blues and funk will sound like very well with this Arkaan.
I'm playing with a line6 spider II 30 watt, and ml-2 boss from home. Software level, I use Revalver MKIII (Vst home Peavey). The sound quality of this guitar is very very good, especially at the rhythm, I stupfait t: we obtain a very large DEFINITIONS in palm mute, while keeping a well fat, heavy and crunchy ... sr was going well as your dpendre rglages!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for 3 months, and I t is not for the purchase. Before I acquire the diverse essey Ibna RG, S, Jackson, ltd .. But nothing was really hooked.
The report quality is excellent.
Is what I would do this election? Yes, but differing of. I ordered this guitar on the internet (ho woe!) But I ordered a shop where I'm paris client.
We arrive at the big black spot on this guitar: The Asian workforce ... Ouch! I have many things wrong, I'm all Paris twice twice to make alterations (supposedly when it verifies Bedarieux has arrived in France ... or so it really a penguin without a hearing that deals: Spring (if you can call on a spring) Completely I do not know how to say so c'tait lamentable microphone not splittable (omission of welding), forgetting to a screw at the block-chords, all very very badly served with ropes and rgls Completely screwed up ..! So yes, it's also the fault of my store, but LG does not do everything perfectly either (unlike any claim to the mark!)

So here is the part we manufacture this guitar out of Korea, I must say I was a tank can finish on the guitar before buying it but I can tell you that I turned in all directions and I have not found much to criticize about this point, besides traces of glue in the fucked-up system.
It is a team Original Floyd (I had sworn to buy more guitar with Floyd) and I must say I took my walk with him because no problem with the view of the agreement, a good Floyd's response to its fleet not touched any of the bar, very accurate. The neck has 24 frets, it is a modern type of relatively thin and flat, very fast, very nice.
The pickups are Seymour Duncan humbucker splittable singles beautiful...…

The neck has 24 frets, it is a modern type of relatively thin and flat, very fast, very nice.
The pickups are Seymour Duncan humbucker splittable singles beautiful effect with their hoods very nice, a three position switch to switch on one or the other and the mix of both, giving us no less than six different sounds greasy Split microphones.

UTILIZATION

Level of use above all else I changed my original strings it seems to me by 10/46 of 12/52 with a tune in D is a whole tone below. After a proper adjustment of the guitar (neck, floyd, harmonics, string action ...) I started. Then is the bomb, the neck is really fast the grip is excellent, the disjointed sound much easier to achieve than on my Gibson SG, when playing the guitar stand is well balanced, no need for the support with the left hand while playing (like a certain guitar-shaped SG in ESP which costs twice anyway). The weight (well grounded) is very low fat to the use of lime.
Access to the treble is a formality, a breeze (something I look for in a guitar because very accustomed to the comfort of the SG.


SOUNDS

Regarding my style, I wanted a guitar to mostly metal fast and technical, the contract is completely filled, I was looking for a powerful and accurate bass saturation, plugged into a head PowerBall ENGL is home of the pure killing, but I soon realized the potential of this guitar clean sound very interested in, the humbucker is doing very well and being able to single splitter that allows us to closer to the Fender sound, this guitar is super versatile, micro are good and warm, incisive in its big for the bridge pickup (BD 6) (nothing to do with active EMG).
The sound is very clean in the treble solos stand out beautifully.
Anyway sounds rich and varied, one who is looking for a versatile guitar go ahead. I have

OVERALL OPINION

last night (I have not let go of the night) I notice already widely used in shops as it hit me in the eye for a while.
I tried many other guitars like Ibanez or ESP LTD Jackson through but for this price range is well above. I would say the strength of this guitar is its diverse and varied sounds, weight, comfort handle more than a floyd good.
The value for money is very good because in a range from 800 € to its other brands dropped for me.
I REFERRED that choice without hesitation.
