UTILIZATION

the handle is perfect for rock in all forms. This is one of the best that I've played. It just takes a little time to adapt. it will not be enough to end the big shreed but everything else going on, from blues to heavy metal. The guitar is very well balanced and access to acute now secure. the sound is all alone

SOUNDS

Mics. I took the Di Marzio Paf pro/fs1/tone area. the paf pro is perfect in the role ascribed to him: it sounds monstrous clean. the fs1 does its job. The tone zone, it is very good for large distos but can also be very nice on a little crunch. His big worry is that the lower, too present, bouzillent all notes in treble and medium high rhythm.
I do everything from metal, prog, rock and even with a group of blues with another and it adapts to all styles of music. I play with a Fender Rhodes and hot it sounds monstrous clean and the distortion pedals I added. Sound is not fat but when you combine metal distortion and tone zone. The harmonics come individually! the sounds are very different thanks to the switch very well studied.
to summarize the monstrous guitar sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year and it suits me perfectly. I have tried almost everything: fender deluxe, custom gibson, ibanez prestige, musicman, godin, lag, prs ... and I must say that this is the guitar that I like best in all those I tried. This is a exelente guitar throughout the views and value for money is exelent compared to gibson and fender that rely on their reputation.
I wanted to emphasize two points: the varnish sets out alone since it is made craftsmanship, early ca heartbreaking and then at the end he found a vintage side. 2 vibrato: I do not EVER change the tuning or pulling too much vibrato if not bye bye! it goes wrong it super quick exchange of firing (I went from 9-46 to 9-52 and I did a few drops of and I had to go get it fixed)
In any case I advise you that this guitar is for me a very versatile and a royal quality.

These guitars handmade ct of Evry worth the high end amricaines (without the cot of the dollar and transport ..).

Configuration, 2 double / 1 single or 2 singles / 1 double.

Quality DiMarzio pickups or Seymour Duncan

Looks a little too classic ?.....

UTILIZATION

We can not RVer far better in terms of playability .... the neck is fast and enjoyable trs without a look RULES of wine (cf swords ibanez sleeves) . The balance of the guitar is perfect and easels Vigier a REFERENCE in terms of tuning stability (although aids by blocking mcaniques).

Action too low nivo rglage the default ..... it's also a matter of taste.

SOUNDS

The sound is excellent and the double DiMarzio nivo provide good output and a good offense. Obviously in Splitt they are not worth a real simple, especially in the treble. (IDAL and an excalibur but the expert must have the finances)
The center position is for INTERESTED arpges.

The bridge pickup is a killer for the distortion!

Finally, the sustain is incredible (if the guitar is well RULES ...)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for ending for 6 months and it is a real gem in terms of violin making and therefore the sound is exceptional.
No need to type in amricains was better on the spot!

Guitar 100 / 100 .24 Franaise frets, HSH Di Marzio, wilkinson bridge type ball bearing and mcaniques blockages. 1 vol and 1 Tone pickup selector 5 positions. Channel 90/10.

UTILIZATION

The handle is really gniale. Trs this guitar is really enjoyable to play There's really nothing to say ... it plays almost alone it is to say .... it is dynamic trs ... it meets all the nuances of the guitar games ...

SOUNDS

I'm really happy with this guitar trs, Knowing that I'm playing stuff like metal plutt ... http / / www.jean-fontanille.com/ (http://http//www.jean-fontanille. com /)
I head plugs directly into a single correct mesa solo 50 .... and the fact ) are the clear sound with trs christallin beacoup of its presence and its saturated just huge .. .
In addition to the vibrato is more agreement than floyd!! the strings are not coupeset there is no block on a rope like floyd and grain, and sustain the momentum-General for the instrument are greatly amliores.

OVERALL OPINION

I own this guitar for 2 years and I'm really happy ... trs I had a little problem breaking the rope intenpestif beginners but everything is back to normal ... I had many other guitars: Samick, yamaha, kramer, jackson, ibanez several including a 7-string ... Each one had its advantages and defects .. for Vigier I see only benefits ....

Small precision, in natural finish my vigier in 1995. In the era we were talking instead of excalibur standard. The bearings did not appear until much later. Note, the picture represents an Excalibur supra.

I put 9 out of 10.

- In what country does she makes? (United States, Japan, Mexico, France ...): 100% France

- How many frets, what kind of micro as well as their configuration?
24 frets and fret 0. Graphite pen. on the other hand, be careful when we pull the rope harder (it gets stuck a little on my rope so). DiMarzio 2 doubles and 1 single.

- What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...): Vigier bridge wilkinson knife type.

- What are the rglages (Volume, Tone slecteur micro ...): 2 double and 1 single. 5-way switch that tired for several months. Record after nearly 10 years of service.

- What: Sleeveless without key 24 frets. A wonderful spices that did not move when I'm not particularly careful with my instrument. The varnish is enjoyable. You can feel the wood behind. My guitar is a bit dated, I feel and how no graphite gene which exceeds slightly. To tell you the finesse and the quality of the varnish.

UTILIZATION

- The handle is it enjoyable: Yes, wonderful. The action is low. Very low. As my salesman: It's too easy to play! And you have a Bolt Susten. Of course, you do not santana but ...

- Access in acute (dernires freight) is it easy but way better than a Start.

- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...) lgre, equilibrated solid.
Two defaults:
- The jack is a real shit to put the guitar on the ground (on MIDI easily jack) and put the jack if you are not familiar you drooling
- The guitar volume up too high. I touch rgulierement unintentionally.

One thing I really appreciate. The touch of vigier is fantastic. The varnish is so fine and cellulose, at least on my MODEL. Wood breathes. You feel something other than plastic at your fingertips. It's so sensual that I can not touch another guitar as more industrial fender with their 5min polish ... While this type of coating is sensitive to the slightest shock, but it sensitizes you to a good treatment. And she deserves.

- Gets it easy to sound good? ... The sound is. From metal to blues. From funk to death ...

SOUNDS

- Appropriate are your style of music: yes

- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) you play: mesa boogie

- What kind of sound you get and with what rglages ("crystalline", "bold ",....): rather fender gibson style. By rule, you have enormous potential.

- What are the sounds you prfrez, you dtest: micro acute and serious. Position 2 bass / mid is nice in rhythm. I do not hate anything about this guitar. I tries to be infidle but I could never leave it very long. Harmonics come easily.

OVERALL OPINION

- How long you use it: bought for around 1200 in 1995, 10 years

- What is the particular feature you like best, the least: the handle, the sound, the varnish.

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir: no

- How do you report qualitprix: excellent

- With the exprience, you do again this choice: YES.

100% Franaise guitar, 24 frets, fixed bridge (no vibrato)

1 volume, 1 Tone 1 5-way switch
DiMarzio Configuration: 2 double (Tone Zone, PAF Pro), a simple (FS1).
The handle is not as fine as a Ibanez, for it is more comfortable against. You feel comfortable on it.

UTILIZATION

The handle is really great! Mine is in Saddle ond well and it is beautiful!
I have no worries for the ACCS to acute lgre the guitar is easy to play. The action is low and the guitar is mounted in the original 9-46. I play in Drop D but I have no worry or fret buz.

combination allows for micro sounds really totalemnt 5 Different.
In saturation, the Tone Zone sends really bad! I love it!

SOUNDS

I play on a Crate amp 50 watt lamps. The sound is not as fat and warm can be a Gibson but not achte Vigier for the sound of a Gibson!

Caution, this does not mean that the sound is not warm, on the contrary!

As mentioned above, the positions of microphones can be very versatile. Center position, we have the two split humbuckers giving some the impression that sounds kind tlcaster!
The neck pickup (Dimarzio PAF) is smooth trs .. it is easily to a shrederies because of the guitar is really easy to play!

OVERALL OPINION

I've had three months and I am very happy with my purchase.
If I do the fly, I buy it back without hsiter! I compare with moultes fender but whether at the level of touch, sound and comfort, I prfr the Vigier.

Some say we may not have sound (or the name at the top of the handle) of the legends but is taking a little time to perfect his rglages, there may be sound to fully close if not similar.

It's a great guitar!

UTILIZATION

The handle is not that pleasant, it is the total splayfooted
it is génialissime a highway! Special mention to
varnish. The highs are very accessible. Jack
is horizontal which allows (those who had
are tired of playing seated. It's a good guitar
balanced and light enough.

SOUNDS

Its rating it suits me perfectly, although it must
older a little to sound even better (or 9 and not to 10). I play progressive

saturation (I love the Tone Zone) through things more or less
strange. I play mostly on a Mesa / Boogie Caliber 50 (climbs en el 84)
with a Tonelab. It is a very versatile guitar and the sound is very well defined.
Of course it is not really made for lovers of vintage sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a little over a year, I paid around 1800 with E
Option head attached. I played a lot of guitars: Start 63, strat
Recent, PRS, Tom Anderson, James Trussart. In fact this level is
a matter of taste. I find it great, I love her
versatility and ease of play, I will ever be the same
choice without hesitation.

Made by Vigier in France, I wanted a guitar to replace my aging Steinberger M-series, and I wanted it to have a Floyd Rose trem.
One piece maple neck, which graphite insert and no truss rod. EMG 81 in the bridge, 85 in the and SA in the middle, 5 position switch and volume and tone control.
24 frets, 6100 style. Floyd Rose whammy bar.



UTILIZATION

It's without a doubt a very easy to play guitar, the action it shipped with is the action it still has, which was perfect, not too low so you still can hit the strings without buzzing, yet low enough for easy cruising.

I also seem to prefer the sound of guitars that have necks without a trussrod.


SOUNDS

Have used this for many years with a lot of different set-ups from old Marshalls and fender, Mesa Trem-o-verb, Fryette Sig-X, Deliverance, Memphis, Rivera Knucklehead 2, Soldano Avenger, THD Plexi, UniValve, BiValve, Flexi-50, rack set-up with an Axe-Fx into a Fryette 2/50/2, etc...

The gain sounds is why I got it, I'm a big fan of EMGs for single note stuff, the clean can get a bit sterile, which is less of an issue. I guess the down side on EMGs in any guitar would be that they won't sound like a Strat pick-up, but then you won't expect that anyways.

OVERALL OPINION

There is nothing in terms of playability or sound I don't like. My niggles are that the body could be a tad bigger.
And that the pick-ups are wired that the #3 position on the 5 way switch is neck and bridge pick-ups together instead of middle pickup alone. If it was a Strat it would bug me, but I actually quite enjoy the two different EMGs together for a darker more mellow lead sound that isn't the "a monkey wearing boxing gloves could make this sound good" typical neck pick-up sound.
The one negative side effect of using a guitar with EMGs is that they end up with the "stereo" jack in order to break the circuit and not drain the battery that wear out more quickly than your average guitar jack.

Franaise guitar, mine has a button Saddle pretty clear and very pleasing i and availing oneself of the urban blue finish.

UTILIZATION

The neck is the best I could touch so far (in addition to being indrglable). For those like me who come directly from Fender no problem we do not dpays varnish is perfect and the hand slides alone.

The action of the guitar is mounted low and it's perfect as a. I have the same height on one of my strats and frieze lot throughout the race, not with Vigier.

The guitar offers incredible comfort, vibrato 2011 is everlasting and the look is really extra.

Small details that kills the microphones are at rgls Dcibel prs. In fact, I who is accustomed to rgler the height of my pickups with a relatively high overall balance on all the strings and my Excalibur is out of the factory vigier rgl perfectly with the microphones as tall as I love it (except the middle which is flush with the original box but it is perfect as well) but just enough to not use the blocks reign of vibrato in both directions. APRS

SOUNDS

many boxes on these features in, let the sound itself.

First observation: the sustain is standard (not even imagine what has to be on the models for their sustain rputs GV)

The guitar is super versatile. In fact, I had a tone zone S on my strat full humbucker but is not at all the same thing. The sounds are saturated with a dynamic standards, a presence and a seat in the lower impressive. Saturations in the crunch metal, everything passe.Le tone zone is really the best compromise for saturation.

But the softer styles are not withdrawn, blues, jazz, pop .... everything goes with a natural dconcertant (thanks to the 5 positions). Certainly not as a guitar type Specializes in a particular style but am not a vigier for a.

Latest details: cash it really well all types of effects (special mention to Time limits and other chorus)

OVERALL OPINION

I played for more than a month and frankly it Hard to lcher.

I do not hide it took me a while to adapt but has been so pleased with this guitar is enjoyable for the modern guitarist.

I Achteras ten if I could (but not above Excalibur Vigier other models) has done so much envy.

No other guitar does it happen ankle issue violin least put more than double its price.

Needless to pick on another continent what is at hand for the same price and quality multimdia widely. A dream
