UTILIZATION

The neck is super pleasant (diverged from my les paul h h
CASC to treble without problem
the form: aa mouth
relatively lgre despite the size, but the size makes it easy for it to take shots

We need even when I say that its form is a handicap for itches quiet on the sofa in front of tl (another reason why I bought another guitar over "small") or there is place for the guitar, either for the girlfriend but not both (should I change the sofa may be), it is better to play the amp standing back and looking into the mirror, but suddenly the girl because "she screams it no longer hear the beautiful life ... tl

SOUNDS

I want the sound "mtal" and I sound metal, clean, efficient and sharp, there is not much bass, it seems that changing the pulling I get more, but the sound is super efficient, anyway I like. I played with a fender twin reverb of the 70s with a mxr dimedistortion, juicy and software 77 (freware on this site), just happiness.

I am using only very rarely or never sound so clear I can not describe them too you

I play in a group of "leectro mtal", with a dual mes correct its kind, was fine with me. To hear what gave you can hear it here:

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two years is a skyscraper "collector" ... actually I find it beautiful, I feel it, I have the sound I want. Buy an old 300 in sales dpt gnraliste, rusty strings, vibrato stung mics rust, super evil rule. I restored and I fell in love after so many intimate relationships.

Then compare it to others ... I can not really say whether it is better or worse, would have a new j'achte vibrato and make rgler for the action is as low as possible. It's better than the low end worse than the very high end (it seems), but I f @ # *, I love it gav death!

Exprience with this choice you do again? bin since I took a les paul custum home piphone but c'tait for a more gibsonnien that of course I never had with the Dime. Before I had a copy of strat Cort in low range, a lag roxanne vintage ibanez rg an ... and I've tried tons of any other type of range.

This guitar has charisma and trunk (even after the change of microphones) and I was good enough for me, and has no price!

Edit 01/06/2010
It's been awhile since I put EMG on this guitar, but I've bought other meantime ntemment goth epiphone G400 Ibanez and DiMarzio Evolution RGT42 climbs ... So, I found that the dime did not sound in comparison with these guitars, which has given me the idea to remove the EMG, I put a fender alnico 5 in bridge and original washburn in run I know seems a strange, but I think the guitar sounds much better, there is much more severe and the mids with EMG. I think that ceramic pickups (EMG) are not suitable for this guitar.

RE-EDIT 15/03/2011

So I replaced the microphone by a fender at DiMarzio evo, though on my ibanez, but the RESULT dcevant dime because not enough bass and relief (because of the guitar), sound silent even when flat. Last hope before selling my dime with his silent fade from my other guitars, j'achte a DiMarzio HS-8 based on advice from the other guitarist in my band. This micro revives this guitar: it compensates for the lack of good bass guitar and this gives him a big grain is like a p90 but double ... I highly recommend this microphone in the neck position for those who find that their dime not a big sound up to its look.

In rsum I tried this guitar:
- X2n DiMarzio
- EMG 81 and 85
- Fender Alnico V humbuckers
- Evo Di Marzio
- Seymour Duncan Invader SH 8

The table highlights the dime Frequencies treble (try without plugging the guitar is impressive), so the microphone that is mounted above must have a big Answers to bass. FYI I Pivoted X2n in the neck (as he is to bridge) and sounds pretty hot.
