«  Big mistake, the price! Incredible. »

Last pampers, lightning total in-store, went home with!

China of course, 22 frets, bolt on neck, strings through the body, mechanical reliability, adjustable bridge in all directions, two humbuckers in the resin molded non-and split-, two volumes, one tone, 3-position selector also misplaced than Gigi.

The body is thinner than in the, not reported in Table Maple either. But it is not flat so far, and very pleasant.
Polish body glitter, satin matt but for the handle, felling in-iron-tional efficiency and speed. More specific. The frets are jumbo, polished, too cool.
Lag profile is fine, it is almost the same as my folk lag (d66ce) last year and almost the same as on my lag made in Toulouse in 1985.
So we see that we are dealing with a multi-recidivist. To our delight!

This class gives off a terrible imperator, simple and tasteful, very small bomb if you get the idea ...

UTILIZATION

Guitar balanced standing to sitting, light weight, perfect access ozégu, very stable and precise mechanical, it's Christmas.
No control of cabbage, three positions zero noise, we manage everything runs short tranquillos.

It offers the possibility to agree well below because the bridges have a good range of adjustment, with Gigi you do not dare move for fear of false harmonics ...

SOUNDS

A vacuum it sounds a bit thin, almost telecaster (if you look: bolt on neck, traversing ropes, bridge large area in contact with the body ...), the rather severe set back but good sustain. So enough medium, with a pretty slamming, the nervous girl.

The pickups are belcat (good manufacturer of pedals, spring reverbs and other trinkets therefore competent) embedded in the resin so little prone to unwanted feedback. I did not, however, played very hard again, by not notice against microphonics either.

The sound is like the classic tandem seymour (jazz jeff beck) but is very round and pearl set in a serious and rather nasal bridge medium soloist. Less aggressive than the SD sh4, fewer harmonics.

So on a conventional amp you will not make rhythmic hard to beyond the grave, but on one front and co are no reasons not to do it as these amps require their signature sound.

In serious clean is great as it is beaded and hot while being accurate.
The surprise is that this imperator excels in rhythmic funk, sacred architecture gives a slamming in the attacks.

I would say that for the total it would suffice to change the bridge pickup for a shadow sh680 (see my opinion on the thing) and there you have the ball for an absolutely ridiculous price.

OVERALL OPINION

It's addictive this thing, impossible not to keep his paws on it. Such ease of play is not often without even talking about the price.

I had a 500 roxanne fairly upscale lag, but china, and it baffles me to level selector and jack that I had to change. I did the imperator in the past month, I will update as needed, but we've been warned.

So total favorite, and I have yet 2 The Gigis, and what emerges is a lag that does not copy the original so much better as a result is relevant at any point of view.
The imperator 100 level allows more rhythmic funk, allows other tunings, is more precise micro serious, is more comfortable, the frets have much better finished, and especially insists the agreement.
It's starting to do much in his favor right?
