UTILIZATION

The handle is very comfortable and fast access to the treble is no problem.
I find it a little heavy, we feel the mahogany and maple, but is better than the ca Agathis as on most models LTD.
For usability, the shape is nice stratocaster type. For the shape of the head, many find it ugly, I personally think that a little more aggressive head could have been chosen for this pretty scratched metal type. Fenderienne the head is slightly off topic.
Special mention for the high quality finish with cream colored thread around the body and along the handle, and no marking on the top of the handle. It really classes.

SOUNDS

I play metal so it is perfect for me. I play with a foot zoom G7.1ut a lamp. the magic trio mahogany emg and lamp worked wonders. Good sound with saturated fat and 81 with the hot 85.

OVERALL OPINION

I have for almost a year and I'm not ready to change it.
I wanted a good metal scraper, let me explain, a guitar made in a high-end wood and not a wooden crate, the active pickups, no floyd rose, and look cool.
I hesitated a lot between models at the beginning NH, 400 M of LTD, which are quite expensive (800 euros) and I heard about the X50 pro emg. I adopted and I regret it. A scraper made in Korea, with an excellent finish for that price, there is no comparison. The quality / price washburn in general is excellent.
