Basically it is the entry level, a beginner scratching ...

UTILIZATION

Channel fine enough

Access to acute way because the handle screw, but there are far worse. It's a cheap guitar, do not ask too much either ...

Weight level, it is quite heavy. Personally I like it, it is well balanced.

Fun to play sitting or standing. On this side of, LTD excellent work from home!

For sound, it's a scratching of metal before it. It has two humbucker pickups for distortion so no problems, ditto for the metal and the saturated overdrive. For its clear, I am satisfied with myself but for those who play primarily in clear, it is better to look elsewhere than in ESP. Otherwise I also play with acoustic simulator (BOSS AC-3) and it's great!
The passive pickups do a good job, but for those who can, try to see to replace the original pickups with EMG HZ's a lot!

As it is said in the entry level but does for 200 balls, it rocks!

SOUNDS

The sound is fine with me: metal, metalhead from scratch, no complaints.
I play on my Roland Cube 20X with ML2 (Metalcore, cold saturated distortion) and AC3 (acoustic simulator). Frankly, the sound is not perfect (obviously for € 200 has not been a Les Paul Gibson to do everything) but we can do many things with. Crystal clear, bold, hot or cold ...

If there's one that I nth tired, it's a sound of Lead: bridge pickup, setting "Metal" on the amp, a lot of treble, not too low, good saturation and delay to resell . Perfect for solo melodic metal in the gnrer Children Of Bodom.

OVERALL OPINION

This is my first guitar, it's been two years since she supports me without complaint and I am very happy. At the time I enter the store and the salesman asked me what I want qe. "A guitar metalheads, not too expensive because I'm not sure to really hang it ...", I immediately put it to be the hands and loved from the first moment! Result I had a superb instrument for what I wanted!

It does not really have strengths or weak, for the price and the guitar is starting in his place. Value for money no scam, excellent.

Well it's clear, at or I play now it no longer suffices completely. I think as an ESP SV Standard next purchase, because it is built das best wood, it has 24 frets, a race driver, active pickups and a floyd. In short everything he lost this guitar, but to start we do not need.

Finally, remain simple: guitar-oriented metal, beginner level. If you already have the eperience or you learn very quickly as I buy another one.
