MGR/Jaytrixer « Yamaha ERG 121 »
Published on 09/04/03 at 15:00This was my first guitar, I got it at a christmas as part of a starter set which cost £200 (english)
It's simple, one control for the volume, one for the tone. It has a 5 way switch blade for the pickups:
Neck
Neck/Middle
Middle
Bridge/Middle
Bridge
It can produce a nice sound if you learn to work around the bad points of the guitar.
The fret wire is a tad too high up around the higher frets and it makes a bit of a buzzy sound. The bridge tears your hand to pieces when you try and palm mute and because the fret wire is so high up around the higher frets pulling off is a real bitch around there.
It has 22 frets and dot inlays. Chrome hardware. It has two controls, main volume and main tone. Five way pickup selector blade.
Pickup arrangement:
Neck humbucker
Single pickup
Bridge humbucker
It's a good guitar really for anyone learning to play but it's not really a life time thing, you'll outgrow it. But it's not bad to start making your own riffs on and things.
