My mine is made in Korea
22 medium jumbo frets
handle collbr /> body table and wicker covers in Saddle leminbr /> tune-o-matic and stop bar
2 pickups Epiphone

UTILIZATION

The handle: not bad enough thick and flat, comfortable in the two positions
Access in acute is not great and the finish of silent frets not so good on mine (sharp at the edges, a ti little sandpaper and that's it!)
ergonomic issues, playing up, no problem, for against, sitting, better be great, Paska for me is super compact!
the guitar is quite heavy, well built.
The mcaniques are correct, nothing more.
It's a plutt blues, not for playing Satriani, what!
reversal (bonding angle of the handle) and the short scale makes it a comfortable handle playing the string tension is lower compared a tune Fender, especially if you mount the ties strong blues requires.

SOUNDS

It is best suited for a big clean sound or in overdrive, the sound is typical low medium and becomes runny with the distortion, so do not add too much gain to not be a draft, which can have its charm, however, . Never, it gets an aggressive sound. The sound is bold, but not versatile trs. The micro serious sounds good in the register of his, the upper leaves of hunger, a little sour. Used a jcm 2000, not bad at all with the clean channel and a little gain, trs blues. no need to add more distortion, just a little reverb.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it in 1998, my beginners
for half a body, it is well made. Poque if I had more Neuros, I took the Sheraton plutt 2, much better over his neck and back three pices of pearl and abalone a better finish ( Difference of 100 euros I think the era).
I care not for a rock guitar in my arsenal (I Ramna more with it than with a fluorescent yellow IBZ row in front of my teacher zik, hinhinhin!)
