Made in USA by Line6

Type "Solid body"
(Beware of misleading pictures ... the central hole is only visible in the image diameter, it is intended to "mimic" the appearance of a real acoustic guitar, while creating a slight resonance helping to modeling different colors of guitars .. but do not expect to find a real body ... 1/4)

Violin:
-pan Cut, cedar, mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, 24 medium frets, Scale 25.5 "Radius 17".

Micro:
-No: Electronic selection with modeling (volume, mic position / patch).

UTILIZATION

1 / - The handle is it enjoyable?

- The handle is very nice, good shape, fine enough, an electric day is not too out of place, ... and the ergonomics are very satisfactory

2 / - Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?

- The cutaway assistance in obtaining the last fret, but it is complicated.
I think this form was decided to resume the form of acoustic, and more seller ... but I would have preferred that they push the vice of solid body thoroughly tan than done .. and put a real shift hand instead of a single cutaway ..

SOUNDS

3 / - Are they suitable for your style of music?

- Overall yes .. although I deplore a "very slight" lack of "realism" in games "arpeggios" with bronze strings, and even new when taken studio is certainly light, but enough to annoy me .
This lack of presence is against almost inaudible in a live performance in the studio .. but .. I think it means a lot, regardless of the setting with or without Worbench ...

4 / - With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?

- In DI via the switch line6

What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold", ....)?

- I managed to find an alternative to the lack of presence by installing pulling hard nylon strings instead of strings bronze normally installable above (this since it is sold as electro-acoustic folk ...), the effect is erased by the harmful effects of vibration matte nylon strings .. and suddenly this realism is stunning .... even after the models chosen ... it's really up in the sound quality of a guitar very good quality which could cost much more ..

-Only Problem resulting from this mod is that by installing nylon strings .. well the aspect of "registered" modeling is no longer valid ... so ... normal .. storytellers zero .. different modeling is different sounds are rediscovering without particular reference .. which can be a good thing you tell me ..:-)

OVERALL OPINION

5 / - How long have you use it?
- 1year

6 / - What is the particular feature you like best and least?
- I love the ability to set the guitar as I see fit ... tone, close agreement programmed or not ... 12 strings or not .. etc ..
I usually use it as a duo or trio with a very simple model, which gives me the E1 (Mi1) and the A (La), an octave below, which allows me to simulate low in picking games ..
or as setting a "capodas" live ... .. practice playing the same chords in real life, but people hear these agreements a third over ... no problem singers ...:-) a button and tone without too much hassle we have to rethink the chord as a keyboard ... what ...
or the ability to set agreements ... normally gives his guitar .. and a minor chord is 9 this parameter tuning .. suddenly .. you can play a part in the song .. and crossed only drink coffee quiet ..:-) .. SALOP !!!!! -) ...
and many other possibilities ..
this is a really sympat played and not just playing .... the result is impressive .. and more to the public ...

7 / - Have you tried many other models before buying it?
- Stratocaster, Telecaster, Variax 600 Black, Takamine 12-string electric guitar, acoustic Maya, Ibanez acoustic electric, Hohner RTX revelation .....

8 / - How would you rate the quality / price?
- Purchased Used 400 euro .. very good report ... the new price ... well .. more or less

9 / - With experience, you do again this choice? ...
- Well-on so ... I'm very telling, and even studio since the installation of nylon strings .. very good product, which remains at 400 euro a good deal for the resulting sound.
