UTILIZATION

Channel comfortable holding the guitar sound, well balanced, relatively light weight.
Cutaway allows access to acute without too many problems.

Although this is neither an electric guitar, acoustic or a full, the sound is fine if you're not too demanding on the purity of those above. Nevertheless I find it better acoustics (sound reminds Ovation) than electric.

The use is nice
Some adjustments may be to consider at the reception (up to review the game = Adjusting sleeve and nut grinding) + change strings manufacturer not terrible.

On receipt and without adjustments noted above, I noted 8.

SOUNDS

Without being plugged in, the guitar sounds little attention = impossible to lead a campfire!
This point is still practical to work the instrument without disturbing those around him too ...

Hype:
In acoustics, the sound is clear, with a small crystalline side Ovation, the bass is deep the tone controls are effective and can modulate the sound to its taste.

In electricity, we find the case = rather his half Jazzy, blues, big rock to avoid it is better to choose this guitar.

And finally, the mixture of the 2 mics opens up another range of sound: It sometimes seems to have 2 guitars acoustic / electric set!

Note 9 because a guitar called "hybrid" one must be aware they have a bit of acoustic sound and a little of its power ... it filled at that level its role.

OVERALL OPINION

I discovered this opportunity in a guitar shop, it is already visually impressive! I tried it and there I found the instrument to play nice, fun, fun show ... : By a simple movement of the cursor, you can play the same song in 2 ways.
I'm not very comfortable on electric guitars, I can not find my bearings, ... with this guitar, no more problem, I have the same haunts as a sound level of my game
It is always more acoustic than electric, it's still also very sweet and jazzy blues (the look of the guitar lends itself well I think ...) we should not try to do with the big sound this beauty.
on the other hand, changing strings delivered series (String manufacturer) is to do upon receipt and adjusting the neck, see a light sanding of the saddle will be considered: The two guitars I tried had a set too high and j have read this comment in other forums.

Cons by then it's a real treat!
In conclusion do not try to replace this guitar with a acoustiqyue and / or an electric guitar take this as a fun, fun which is fun to play to invent, to vary and rediscover the songs we usually play acoustic Pure ....
néamoins with a real quality finish, a look at fall ... I advise those who, like me, its not very comfortable with the pure power.
Undeniable value for money and a big congratulations to the Korean firm.
