Lâg Arkane A1000

- Made in Korea (The 3000 is made in France and 500 in China and less)
- 24 frets, EMG 81 in bridge, EMG EMG S in the center and 89 (so splitable) to handle
- Floyd Rose original United States
- Volume, 5-way switch, tone (which also splits for 89 push / pull)
- Canada's Maple neck with a guide screw titanium reinforcement

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, if not a highway. Access to acute perfect view of the body is increased. Body-neck junction was also worked as not to impede the hand. I wish the end of the shoe (although already very late) had been on edge handle. Too bad.
The ergonomics are almost perfect. Note however that the volume is just below 81, and can play tricks on some. In addition, he is right on the path to reach the pickup selector. As for the balance of the guitar is perfect. Whether sitting or standing.
The body is African mahogany table covered with maple, so frankly we feel that we have a guitar in his hands, not a toy, but without making it a hard place. The material is beautiful and well here in order to sustain the play without any problem and go after the Floyd perfectly mastering the guitar.

SOUNDS

I find this guitar very versatile and not just access to the metal. The presence of 89 (and not a 85, phew!) And the micro S series are the center for many. But also this remarkable violin. For proof, just listen to the guitar unplugged. It almost sounds like an acoustic guitar !!!!! But frankly, the EMG EMG remain with their attack very specific. And that's what I was looking for with this guitar. So I can now get the sound (both clearly saturated) accurate as I was looking for a long time. This guitar is the perfect complement to my Aria Pro II PE-R80, which is passing a masterpiece for the violin, but that's another story.
For amplification, I do not break the head. The best result I could find is to use a neutral amp, universal (therefore the bandwidth) and the trunk. In short, one of these famous amps or you can connect both a guitar, a bass or a synth, a vocal mic ... no frills, no effects. And to work the required sounds, a Pod XT Live Line 6. God knows I triturated amps, guitars and pedals ... But unless you are wealthy, I have yet to find anything better than this solution to open a panel as large and sound as good.
The Arkane likes well dressed, both in the sounds of Michael Angelo Batio, and other furies Mettalica delusional in American folk music. If so, try the 89 splits the S + (if any), all on the simulation of an acoustic amp!!

OVERALL OPINION

Simply put, the (small) shortcomings of the guitar volume not very well placed and the shoe still too thick for my taste at the handle. The qualities of violin making, the deck fittings of high quality, original Floyd Rose (not a copy more or less under license), the microphones. The little extras, the guitar comes in hard case custom imitation crocodile very high class. It also comes with straps lock dunlop. At first it made me laugh. And then I realized I was putting my guitar case in his fine tailored (of course) ... and I played with a padded leather strap Canada (very comfortable. Yes, yes .)... Have you ever galérez you to attach or detach your nubuck strap on your guitar?!?!
In short, if you are looking for a guitar in this category, I strongly suggest you to look closely at this arkane 1000. If I had to keep one feeling after buying this guitar, it would be: "Wow, he is not fucking with me ...!"

This beautiful guitar is made in Korea, has 24 frets, is essentially Team EMG pickups (89 in set, SA and 81 in the middle rack!), a floyd rose original, a volume of a tone of slecteur original mics in a semicircle (Systm plutt exclusive lag, because I have no such v slecteur elsewhere ... ) and a handle end, though frtt.


UTILIZATION

trs the handle is enjoyable, easy to play and satin varnish makes the game faster and acrobatics vaesques.
Access in acute ais is dcoupe with this profile at the body-neck junction; Most recent internship boxes only require some time to adapt to play it properly, that&#39;s all in life it takes time, and APRS is happiness! <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="wink" />

Ergonomics is simply gnialissime! ; Galb end and a body well trs profile with a table beautifully dappled black Saddle and Saddle nets clearly visible which gives an attractive contrast trs eye.

we get easily a good sound when ds is known to play well and we made the right choice of the v amp that receive the "beautiful"!


SOUNDS

it suits the style that I want to play right now, the guitar instrumental and everything else! <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" /><img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" /><img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" />
in fact it should almost all styles from the time when the only obstacles are the fingers, the spirit of the guitarist, his technique and amp! <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="wink" />

I plugged in a Bogner Alchemist and frankly c&#39;tait really good!
I found the sound a bit "mt", but with all rglages "midi", do not be surprised! (rms still ... <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="wink" /> )

sounds are trs varismme if the EMG (rms well huh?! <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="wink" /> ).
we get almost anything you want, but I think I would have put in place of a 89 dimarzion paf pro to have a more typical blues.
moving from one grain of blues in his neck pickup sounds prcis pops and funk on the positions intermdiaires saturax the bite of the fabulous and stunning EMG 81 (in fact, it would devote much of a paragraph &#39;boxes so that micro fans will love metallica and others, there are just as grain, precision and mdiums it takes to play good metal riffs Submitted, Defines)
we also have the possibility to split the pickups in single coil double and it enlarges possibilitsdj large enough to cover other areas of music more prcis; basically sound and clear prcis that make you want to sing a ballad&#39;s beautiful!

I like almost all the sounds on this guitar, but hey, I tienda prciser it&#39;s still on a lot and the grain of the amp is certainly a lot too, but in the Overall, it&#39;s good, it&#39;s even good trs!

I dtest is to write the word "dtest" ah! ah! ah! <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="mrgreen" />






OVERALL OPINION

I have used this guitar just half an hour this afternoon APRS in a music store grenoble, so, even when done not long! <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt="mrgreen" />

what I like most is the magnificence of this guitar, everything is well thought over, a super enjoyable round with the satin varnish the easy handling, this game we prcis obtained by bending it a little, the sound when you rev ​​versatile can play many styles of music, floyd gnial and trs pro, the color black shadow, the threads of the box in Saddle , the handle and lacrosse, slecteur 5 positions with his race round the table in the dappled Saddle EMG, and the key in any bne !!!!!!!!!!

I tried it before normment guitar and not the least! (Musicman van halen, parker fly, Gibson Les Paul, ES-335, Vigier Excalibur Ultra, jackson soloist, ibanez universe, ibanez jem steve is .... you name it!)

qualitprix the report is excellent, the tip 1290, she was worth!
with such a quality must be crazy, Faucher (in my case!) dsintress of life or not to buy it!

with exprience, I know ... but I think I still ssay even larger share of the plant guitars Paul Reed Smith, and I must say that my choice will certainly to her for my future purchases!

UTILIZATION

the handle is a real highway, the ergonomics are perfect, access to the treble is very simplified by cutting, floyd-rose is a real treat for acrobatics vaïesques, one small (big to me) flat pickups selector which is poorly positioned (which is not very practical when you play the Dream Theater and we constantly micro). The rounded contours permetent an investment arm of natural right and very comfortable both sitting and standing. on the other hand it is better to have a strap strong enough becaufe still weighs heavy beast.

SOUNDS

This is the ultimate weapon for the metal of all kinds, the sound is astounding accuracy with no breath (long live the EMG). However, it remains very versatile with the 3 pickups and the possibility of split the 89 that makes we may have 7 different sounds. It is obviously made for large distortion (which resortent both micro acute for large micro rhythms that serious solo petrucci style) or pushed enough crunch. However, sounds remarkably clear stand regardless of the type of rhythm used (blues, jazz, funk). Even if the overall sound is described as "cold" because of certain EMG (s), and although this is not fake but personally I like it and those who find the sound "cold" without souls does have to buy guitars without EMG and stop criticizing them when they are adored by many great guitarists (each his own).

OVERALL OPINION

I did that for two days but it's crazy love. I highly recommend this guitar (which is more beautiful) to anyone looking for a deluxe guitar for less than 1500 €, it is well worth the time.

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
a thousand times yes
