Best value:
Excellent
Guitar made in Korea
24 cases
Emg active pickups 81 and 85
Tune o matic type bridge.
One volume, one tone, one 3-position switch.
Mahogany body, maple table.
Maple neck and rosewood fingerboard.
Earvana compensated nut
UTILIZATION
The handle is very ergonomic and comfortable [edit on 18/08/08 by I find it slides against evil], I find the action quite constant along the handle which is very pleasant.
access to acute is pretty easy.
The guitar is light for mahogany, would stay again.
SOUNDS
This guitar is perfect for heavy metal, the lack of Pink Floyd can easily change tunings (if any).
I plugged into an Engl Powerball head, it is easy and accurate sounds very "heavy" thanks to the micro Emg 81.
Mahogany brings a little low-mids, BUT YES !!!!!!
For me this mahogany guitar is not unusual, we feel the same playing without being plugged in, it's light, its lack of density but good for the price, do not expect a heavy wood dense and hot.
Emg they send the pick and I think he do it well.
It is not a Lespaul, one suspects.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had two days, I changed the input strings, lowered the action, loosen it a quarter turn of the truss rod, re-harmonics (easily), checked the battery.
This guitar has an excellent quality / price ratio.
What I like least is a lack of heat, especially due to the average quality of gasoline.
This is my first contact with EMG, it's clean, precise, full of attack on wood of choice, they must be excellent.
The whole gives a good mid-range guitar on which you can really have a good time.
