Beginners
Read the tests below, everything has already been said!
UTILIZATION
I find the neck very comfortable for a low-end model, it is amazing the ease with which it connects the shreds and sweeping strings once properly set.
Access to the treble is not too annoying.
In weight, the guitar is pretty light, which is handy, as to the form it is rather basic.
Personally to the plate 'protection' back (to change the springs of the tremolo), I prefer to remove it, it only serves to make it pretty like all the guitars, and since I do not show the back of my guitar when I play, it's not a problem (anyway I do not play it!).
on the other hand I would point out that the mechanics do not look positively robust! Before I did not pay too much attention and now that I changed my guitar, it makes me obvious.
SOUNDS
I think this guitar is quite versatile, for beginners it is good, the microphones according to their position are also at ease in distortion (its rather balanced) than the clear.
We may regret the lack of heat microphones, but above all, find me a guitar at this price with a warm sound!
Overall, the sound is fairly neutral and all mic positions may give a pleasant sound.
Like all the guitars, the sounds that I hate are the ones with the key to 0 (yuck disgusting!)
on the other hand I found that the apparent bends very well (thanks to the handle 22 boxes)
With the mic and many serious saturation, "Parisienne Walkaway" Garry Moore sounds really great, in fact, when we bend the solos, it sounds good in general.
The major weakness of his (but forgivable for the price of the instrument) are the Palm-mutes who do not stand out very well, especially when I compare it to my BC Rich Platinum Pro Beast .... (But the price is not the mêm either!: D)
If sustain is not great and the intermediate positions are quite noisy (it is better to use a clean sound)
Takes a funny thing, when I put the selector in the middle position and when I pushed down, the sound changes completely, I feel like I just use the microphone simple, I admit it quite simply amazing even if it is defective electronics.
OVERALL OPINION
While previous notes that I have are not very high, I still enormously difficult to criticize this guitar, especially for its price!
Honestly, for its price range, I think it does (or rather was) part of one of the best value for money!
But unfortunately, according to the official website of Yamaha, I feel that this guitar is no longer made ..
