The bridge consists of a piece tailpiece + bridges, at first it stings a little hand palm mute;
The handle has a D-shape, very nice for small hands.

UTILIZATION

<ul>
Handle very nice, the varnish glides well for this price range. The frets have sharp edges. The finish is a little light on their insertion. Grover who have so far always given the agreement
The access is not an acute problem is a set neck and the shape of the guitar is open;
The body shape despite the cut with an ax is nice. While sitting it does not move, ca does not sting the nose. The first time you test stand ... big surprise. Picnic head horizontally. As played by holding the handle is not my thing, I have conducted tests to find a balanced position (tape + strap). The solution was simple: drill a shot at the junction of neck / body (like the SG) and a Straplock. Since it is a treat. It does not move a hair, super balanced. Small flat, it's a heavy guitar.
The original pickups are decent. The clean sound is rough. In ca disto password.

SOUNDS

To the big rock this guitar suits me perfectly. I think soon upgrade the pickups to gain versatility. The gain of the microphones of origin is not really progressive then the best setting is "just 10". Let's be honest, we bought this guitar primarily for the look, not its sound. A microphone is ca change, a shape, a beautiful painting ... not. You have to love the kitsch side / 2nd level of it.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 8 months. What I like most ... its looks great I saw in the store ... whaaooo too good .. the price should follow. I risk a glance at the label: PROMO € 300. And I have no hesitation buying a thunderbolt. I got a house, not flycase. Too bad especially when you say that buying a hard case represents 80% of the scratches ...

I consider the ratio q / p excellent, a beautiful guitar with a violin honorable expected that a new bridge pickup ... I would do that choice again!
