Made in Korea.
24 frets, Seymour Duncan SH1 and SH4, fixed bridge with string type TuneOmatic transverse adjusting volume, pitch, Coil Tap + a 2 position switch for a total of six positions. Set neck. Mahogany body with maple table, maple neck. Voila! It gives confidence and visually it looks great!
UTILIZATION
Not too heavy (300 grams more than my Ibanez Sabre). So rather ergonomically shaped stratovolcano. Its very versatile without going down to the metal.
Problem (and it has been said here): the handle is too soft. All fretboard is not completely rigid to 100%. But here's a little too much! If we play the top of the handle, it will often unwanted vibrato effect (an advantage over a fixed bridge guitar! Not kidding). It can reach 1 / 5 of your differences with the desired tone.
Other KX has a mahogany neck that appears to you it would not have this worry. So it should be specific to the Custom. Prohibitive problem for me.
SOUNDS
Yes the sounds are quite good without being exceptional, rather warm, felted and well defined, with no burrs.
OVERALL OPINION
I used it less than a week. I did it again because of his race. It may perhaps be suitable for persons of the same force pushing forward (with fingers) and behind the handle (thumb), but must be precise and gentle!
The new production runs will most likely problem, I hope!
