«  Of carpentry ... »

Published on 09/30/11 at 01:34
Tailpiece stop bar / Tune-O-Matic
Mechanical oil bath
Bolt with heel profile,
Two passive pickups with covers Black Grass Roots (look how EMG)
A toggle switch and two volume knobs.
Look fabulous.

UTILIZATION

The entire guitar is covered with a thick black paint coated, not especially pleasant to the touch at the neck, but nothing rhédibitoire either.
The guitar is very heavy, but relatively balanced, with no major problems of ergonomics. The handle is round (normal for a guitar inspired by the Explorer ...) and comfortable if we except the lacquer.
For cons, the overall quality of the violin is pretty disastrous.
Some models have flaws absolutely staggering, and it is closer to carpentry as the violin.
The wood seems really bad, the guitar does not absolutely vibrant.

SOUNDS

Sound levels, microphones and a potato surprisingly unexpected precision. This is clearly not duy upscale, but it sounds. on the other hand, it's still cold enough and clearly dedicated to the metal.
The sustain is very average (despite the massive proportion of the guitar) and there are problems with accuracy (due to a shrinking rough?)
In short, for the metal to Hetfield rhythm, it does pretty good.

OVERALL OPINION

This guitar belongs to a friend, and I often had the opportunity to play it.
This is a big fan of Hetfield, he therefore wanted to have fun with this guitar with the look can not leave indifferent.
Only problem: this guitar is very bad in the end, finished with an ax with a violin under more of a toy supermarket as a musical instrument.
For the record, he had ordered this guitar in VPC. The one he received was unplayable as the handle is misaligned! A lag of several degrees. The rope was acute far outside of the handle from the 10th box.
So he sent the guitar to an exchange, but the second he had still received large defects, including a veiled touches that made the game not beyond the 16th box. As a pure rhythmician, he still kept the guitar ...
That's at least the guitars that I would not advise my worst enemy.
