What country does she makes? (United States, Japan, Mexico, France ...)
Made in Korea for it unlike sries M-400 just Indonsie
How many frets, what kind of micro as well as their configuration?
Xjumbo 24 frets, 2 humbucker EMG 81 (we do not lace) with slecteur 3 positions, 1 volume knob and one tonalitbr /> What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?
Pink Floyd 1000 "black nickel", like all the acastillage (equivalent floyd rose original but manufactured in Asia)

What rglages (volume, Tone slecteur micro ...)?
Dja cit above, the guitar comes in E given with 9-42 home
What type of race?
Channel call "Extra thin U neck." Beware the call, handle is anything but extra fine. Ifyou cheche will see a handle end with Ibanez or Jackson but from here the name is somewhat misleading.
Round "set-thru" (read "al in depth") as stocky, rosewood table with binding of head and touch in abalone. We like it or not, but the finish is one of the most perfect I&#39;ve seen. For a guitar made in Korea is a must that the cot


UTILIZATION

The handle is it enjoyable?
Channel trs fairly comfortable enough around in pens down, a little flatter when it rises in the treble (a must for all styles). The handle is not a fast pe cot but comfortable neck for me is unbeatable

Access in acute (dernires freight) is it easy?
ACCS with better than a neck-through, I think it&#39;s hard, you could almost play "26 or a cargo 27me"
Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
The guitar is perfectly balance (in the gnral with this form was no problem to handle that stings the nose) but beware of the weight! It PSE her little weight can be tiring and long. Personal I invested in a Quilted leather strap and is impeccable but otherwise with a cloth strap kind dunlop straps, it does not take long to feel pain with the shoulder

Do you get a good sound easy? ...
Yes rgler condition of the height of the microphones, it is comes with 2 EMG casi against the ropes, which for the neck pickup vritable a silent horror. Rgl is good if not faster and it comes with a proper rglage LORD 9-42 but a little soft, I quickly changed the game of rope.



SOUNDS

Appropriate are your style of music?
Being a fan of music and fast enough muscle this guitar is equally suited to handle the pace with its rounded, as with his solos dcoupe perfect for Access in extreme treble. Personally for Shred, I prfre a flat handle like the necks of speed in Jackson but it&#39;s really a matter of taste, because this guitar suits me well as trs for comfort as for its remaining trs prcis really even with a large distortion
With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
Line6 Spider Valve amp + echo park, NS-2, Boss CE-5, Cry baby from hell (distortion of the amp)
What kind of sound you get and with what rglages ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
Thanks to EMG, this guitar rpond perfectly chosen level of saturation. Unlike some passive pickups, if you want to play the blues and then spend very sharp metal is quite possible. A little delay and / or a chorus and EMG 81 fits what you play. It&#39;s really a good trs. In the light (on neck pickup) sound a bit serious and a bit strong, is not suitable for playing jazz, but rglant the amp, adding treble, reducing the gain, we can find a good clean sound that Global Warming with a small chorus. At that moment we find this typical sound found on songs like Seasons in the Abyss Slayer or Metallica Sanitarium partly Clean.
As against this distortion by happiness: His powerful saturated, fat and crunch. bridge pickup is prcis even in big trs saturation and the neck pickup is perfect for shred, trs prcis, he did not envy the 85 in this area!
What are the sounds you prfrez, you dtest?

For several test jacksons factories with same wood (paper recess) and the same equipment, I must admit that these dernires Manir sounding much more aggressive. The cot fat crunch is somewhat less pronounced with this MODEL, but again it&#39;s a matter of taste because it&#39;s an excellent scratching both in saturation in the clear. The three mic positions rpondent perfectly and no need to rgler his amp for hours to find his sound.


OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
For the past three months and I do not let go
What is the particular feature you like best and least?
Most:
- The equipment
- The look (the table is splendire Saddle, also the head that also this possde cot black transparent)
- Finishing without default (rarely seen a)
- Prcis the sound and the best sustain I&#39;ve heard for a guitar of this form
- The comfort of the handle and the high freight impec ACCS

the -:
- Book in a cardboard box ... flight case not included
- I personally had a problem with the vibrato bar, it dvisse quickly when you use it, I do not have chos eque on my other guitar. I guess I have not had any luck on this one, this should not be a gnralit.
- The weight may be, quilted strap prvoir

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Yes, Ibanez RG, Yamaha (thank you more than ever), jackson DKMG

How do you report qualitprix?
Paid 950 new guitar, the finish is flawless + 2 EMG and Pink Floyd, trs is correct, but a flight case for the price would not t luxury.
Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...
For a guitar made in Korea, I am more than satisfied, I did not expect such and such a finish. For a long search for the strat THE mtal, I finally found. I redo this purchase without hsiter!
