Type Start, made in Taiwan (bah yes, the price, it comes from there!). Wilkinson bridge type, which has tended to tune my guitar the first two years and after stabilized.
2 singles and a humbucker, 5 settings. 2 knobs (vol. and tone). The jack is below and not on the table. Oil bath mechanical hyper stable (even with strings deep-draft).
Mine is finished in light wood and white protective (rather than cream today).

UTILIZATION

The neck is super nice, it slides even if it's not a highway to Ibanez. Access to treble is good overall. The settings are fastoches (do not touch yourself to the handle, it is screwed !!!). In terms of weight, it seemed a little heavy teen, but hey, it's been thirteen years I have, so ...
Different microphones have their own personality, i like especially the mic handle clean sounds and acute crunch.
Initially, I had to adjust the height of the microphones, especially the humbucker that really slammed too. No breath, even after many years ('Just do not take m.rd. jacks!). Just my volume knob that sizzles a little, not twice.

SOUNDS

I mainly play stuff on the floyd or old rocks (zep, Yardbirds, stones ...) or jazzy blues. It suits me perfectly because it is very versatile and can accept all types of effects. The microphone is very serious round with a lot of presence and acute loves drive or distortion. The medium and intermediate sound too good. My game and my styles have changed a lot and the 112 has always adapted well.

OVERALL OPINION

As I said + above, it's been thirteen years that I have and it has not aged a bit! To change anything, not even the mic. One would think she was a young girl. I bought 1200F at the time (approx. 180 euros) and frankly for an entry-level, it kills. Nothing to do with other brands that offer similar price guitars really not top.
I remember the time I flashed on his face and then trying it, I knew right away ...
At that price, I will take no other.
