tailpiece stop bar and bridge tune-o-matic
mcaniques grover 16 / 1 oil bath
1 tone knob and 1 volume pot
Saddle sleeve very hard screwed (junction ergonomic rounded)

Guitar lgre
the handle is reminiscent of the ESP extra-thin flat that would have made for a t 7-string, it is flat trs
Graphite nut
rosewood fingerboard, back spot

Guitar fully erect, it's a bone, and the action is super low!

UTILIZATION

The neck is super stunning, and rev hard ractif, although flat on the length (more than a flat end IBZ) and super user-friendly. Body-neck junction is extra, no problem to reach the boxes on all acute strings. Body type strat unsurprisingly, no ESG!

SOUNDS

Korn, Deftones and others ... without worry!
I play on one or a AVT50 H'n'K triamp (even on a bass amp), has sent the heavy, we can find a good sound, the guitar is very well built, no problem, no surprise! Good choice of wood and good technical choices = good rsultat assurbr />
The clean sounds are cheesy and hot, good level of trs (trs Defines well), and for such distortion: it's heavy, sharp, sharp and well prcis both a free- fault, the mics are really good! (Standard surprise for me!)

OVERALL OPINION

My having a good month since I play it every day, it holds the tuning well trs (minor alterations from time to time).
I have a apex2 munky and I judge to a comparable level, the apex is more gentle and intense (mahogany body) and "wash" the more scathing and trenchant (alder body). Both are trs complmentaires I think.

Pay secondhand 220Eu (super-tat), a self-explanatory, it indisutable! I thought to buy a small gratte7 for beginners and I thought changing the mics but I do not touch anything, it's perfect as a!!!

The only problem and not the least is that the masses do not find in the shops ... Big shot bowl or anything!

Little known guitar (I did not know before seeing it in shop) and it sends it's a shame really: o)
