It is a low manufactured in Indonesia. She has a driver handle 24 cases consisting of maple and bubinga. His pitch is 35 "against 34" mostly. The body is swamp ash and walnut table. The bridges are separated so that the strings do not resonate with each other. The electronics is active, there is a volume, balance microphones settings low, mid and treble. It is equipped with two Bartolini pickups mk2. But why perform a screwing in the handle to put the batteries? Was there no place else, especially as the principle driver of the handle is to improve sustain. In short, it was nearly perfect without this error.

UTILIZATION

The handle is a real highway, access to acute perfect. Please note that the 24th box is playable for the Re and Sol. The weight is very correct, we can play longer without tiring your back. For cons, the pitch is larger than normal, get used to larger distances of fingers. When the sound it is easy to solve: the controls are simple, effective and knobs have a notch to locate.

SOUNDS

I play many styles of music and here I must confess that I am fulfilled.
Metal to funk, slap in the pick, it is very satisfactory. My preferred setting is the following: balance to 20% on microphones that the bridge, low and medium to 25% beyond the notch and the sharp notch. This setting corresponds to the 70's hard rock I play. I do not use effects because it is low enough in itself.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months. I have a btb 200 entry-level that I bought by accident two years ago. I liked its ergonomics, I naturally went to its high-end version and I'm delighted. The value is simply unbeatable. Since this is not the fender, or other music-man Yanks, the price of nine is already very low (in the 750 €), but the more things very quickly discount: 350 € for the 2008 model in very good condition is present! without the detail of the battery compartment, it could take a coffee maker.
I remake that choice without hesitation.
