Audience:
Beginners
A pretty nice stratocaster,
- Vibrato (who disagree)
- 3 pots: 1 Volume 2 tones
- 5 position pickup selector
- 3 microphones.
The pots and switch are practical and can have many different sounds, a good point.
The bad point is as I said vibrato, but there is also the height of the strings to the handle, and the frets a little too big.
It is ideal for beginners, but when you become more experienced, it's embarrassing.
-> 7 / 10 because of the vibrato and the distance of the strings to the handle.
UTILIZATION
A nice run when you start the guitar, access to acute rather easy, good ergonomics, the scraper is perfect for beginners.
But if you have a good level, it's not a guitar for you.
It is quite heavy, but it can go.
After a few adjustments to the knobs and switch, we get the sound you want easily.
-> 8 / 10 for ease of use when you start.
SOUNDS
I played with a personal amp coxx gg-60, and j'obtient a good big sound.
on the other hand, this skyscraper has a problem is that it blows a lot, depending on the setting of knobs and gain on the amp, but overall it's a lot of noise and it's very annoying.
I've tried to change the jack, but nothing happens, it comes from the guitar.
For info, so plan to buy a good noise gate at the same time ...
-> 6 / 10 because of the breath.
OVERALL OPINION
It's been maybe 5 years or more I use the scratch, and I confess that it is beginning to annoy me ...
It is because it is designed for beginners, and when I started it was not bad at all, but after 2-3 years of practice, it gets boring.
So scratch that is perfect for beginners, especially for the price it costs (it is the cheapest on the market) but plan to change it after 2-3 years when you have acquired a minimum of practice.
Experienced guitarists, it's not a scratch for you.
-> 7 / 10 (for average score)
