UTILIZATION

Guitar trs balance, though rather heavy (for sound ... heavy!)
Channel Gibson, one more Submitted! Easy, prcis, able to nuances.
Accessibility assistive excellent all along the frets even the most acute.
Rglages potentiomtres prcis of CASC and easy.
Trs good performance agreement (used with Elixir light strings).

SOUNDS

Bought to play hard rock and mtal perfect for this kind of use.
The pickups are ... awesome! Enough caliber to produce solo prcis net, although discriminating to faithfully reproduce the 7th in a saturated fat and its powerful and senders for heavy riffs and distorted.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year without tiring of his precision and his sensitivity.
My only complaint is minor weight of which eventually make itself felt after 2 hours rptition.
This is an excellent instrument, a report qualitprix trs correct, had kept his brio (Aesthetics and sound qualities combined) and strong.
Trs good choice for who wants to play in the registry and hard metal.
