Characteristics already mentioned for Model 3T sunburst.
Made in China and leaves no impression of "cheapitude ...".
Beautiful color guitar meets all my expectations. Excellent original settings: Action bass, round well adjusted (I have not yet changed, and reluctant to change even pulling the strings).

Rear plate 3 ply unlike my Start US, but it's a good detail.

UTILIZATION

Channel end, comfortable, fast. The varnish is impressive on the photos 'on web' and yet it makes no discomfort or resistance. Comfort! I prefer that the sleeves satin or matte.
Rosewood very smooth, well finished frets (not cut).
Made in access to acute Start, no worries.
The knobs offer more resistance than on other guitars but frankly there are other criticisms to make a scratch ... And then you get used very quickly.

SOUNDS

Also cited in the reviews on this same model 3T Sunburst.

I add only that rosewood does not sound like a maple fingerboard. Nothing to do with the quality but it is question of tone. I have the two types of stick and it is not the same guitar! A vacuum and especially amplified.
The pickups are great backgrounds and are not afraid of high saturation (drive) of a tube amp. Clearly they do not go on c. ..... when you push the amp. I do not account also replace these pickups.
For the metal, see the experts in the field. But this model does not address instinctively that music starting with the color ;-)
Something else false harmonic out very easily.

OVERALL OPINION

I am the proud owner for a week and I do not change their minds anytime soon.
I've been playing for 25 years and does not discover the stratum. This is not a beginner guitar, one feels one has the right stuff in his hands.
Personally, I feel like spending too much money for models so-called "superior".
Price / quality ratio hallucinating, I sign for one of her sisters tomorrow.

I rarely leave an opinion but that's mandatory!

She is beautiful, it sounds and it's a pleasure to let them run his fingers ...

A good readers salvation.
