UTILIZATION

Then, as regards the shape of the guitar is a true work of art! A little agressvie, a little rock, a little very beautiful, this guitar has everything to please me, after everyone's tastes. But the advantage of this form is that it allows access to acute perfect, without harm!
For cons, the sitting position, we must find it, because it is not obvious at first, he must put the guitar on horseback on the left thigh.
And it's a Gibson, so 2 humbuckers, so the sound go out alone!

SOUNDS

Sound, where to start ....
I did it all: clean, distortion, crunch, metal, ...
Vraimment all. I plugged into a Marshall Vintage Mordern 2266C with a combo pedal MXR ZW44 Zakk Wylde signature, and I left for 3 hours of intense play. It has nothing to envy to other guitars!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since summer 2010, so it's been nearly six months.
I hesitated between many models before, I intended to buy a lespaul save, or I turned to more types of metal models (BC Rich, Dean ,...). Then I fell on this guitar, vraimment not cheer for a Gibson (I got scared at the beginning), she is beautiful vraimment and then she had the air pretty good. So I cracked, and I knew it was available at my store I bought it, and I'm not disappointed vraimment, the finish is vraimment interesting, it is very pleasant to the touch and roots, And then it does not leave fingerprints on the body!
The ratio quality / price ratio is unbeatable, and I would do this either with pleasure!
