- In what country is it made? (United States, Japan, Mexico, France ...)
- How many frets, what kind of pickups it has?
- What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?
- What are the controls (Volume, pickup selector...)?
- What kind of bridge it has?

Not in France. Japan or China.
I have the first produced version outside the hexagon.
It has 3 pickups Seymour Duncan Designed (1 double and 2 single). The simplest are slightly bent.
The neck has 22 frets, and it is very thin.
The selector has five positions.
The bridge is a Wilkinson vibrato (as many batement a Floyd, but without locking the strings).

UTILIZATION

The neck is super nice. I do have small hands, and the smoothness of the handle so I quite useful. on the other hand, it is even qd adapt.
The Strat-shaped body being, access to acute pose no problems.
The guitar is very light and rather well balanced.
Whatever the microphone, the sound is good. The volume being perfectly set between each microphone.
The pickups are fairly simple neutral, typical of a stratum. The double has a lot of potatoes.
For cons, the Wilkinson vibrato particularly disappointed me.
It is quite difficult to adjust the tuning, and if ever they dare to use the vibrato (it moves as much as a Floyd), the tuning is a remake. on the other hand, if the vibrato is not used, the tuning is long enough.

SOUNDS

I play many styles, from blues to metal, and it follows without pleindre.
In the neck position, the sound is pretty blues. Bridge position, it is the very metal.
The center position is rarely used.
In addition, the guitar has a lot of sustain.

I play on a Crate 60w and a multi-purpose GX700. So everything is possible.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been six months that I have this guitar.
Bought on Ebay for 160, I made a great deal.
I tried a lot of guitar, and the one for me particularly. The only one that would surpass the Lag is Roxanne, but it is not the same budget.

If I had the choice again, I'll take Floyd version, or with a standard vibrato. The wilkilson does not suit me, but I do not sell it.
