This guitar representation, and with some others at the top of the basket Ibanez. Everything is done manually and is ame discover the pleasure of the name of the luthier who has the beautiful fawns.
UTILIZATION
At first sight, this guitar is made for guitarists who want to play faster and faster, stronger and more technical. Simply put a guitar specially dedicates to shreds metal. Well, not only! Sr is its slim neck, its 24 boxes which are hollow LATEST 4 so as not to ruin the fingertips on the button (and it works amazingly well), its access s notes treble dj stratode simple form and a simplified dcoupe the junction of body and neck instead of leaving the palm of the hand, a perfect balance, weighing the ger (just 3 pounds on the scale) and Dimarzio pickups great irrmdiablement to grow and we flew techniques quickly takes a virtuoso mtal and high speed. Yet even if the rock and left its field prdilection, this guitar is the champion of versatility and super sonic sound.
SOUNDS
Sounds? ... But he can play anything with it. Jazz, blues, pop, rock, heavy everything is possible thanks to the configuration of microphones and a ingnieux push / pull the volume knob that provides 9 - yes! I did say 9! - Configurations of microphones and sound. We can get sounds from a Stratocaster or a tl but both a Les Paul. Sr is that dpart we get lost a little with so much choice but to quickly get got. I did not choose this guitar for anything other than this versatile sound and I must say that after a month of use, I'm absolutely not.
My first electric guitar is a PRS Singlecut birds microphones 22, the old models of this brand, in addition Whereas its weight (almost 8 pounds) I found that for dvelopper my songs, I lacked amplitude Tone in microphones. Indeed, the difference in shade between the microphones is almost imperceptible and I am forced to rework the sound using my rack effects (Boss GS10). I wanted to find a guitar unlike the PRS (which I still profondment attach to its ease of play).
OVERALL OPINION
In conclusion, I use this guitar for a month and I am very far from me yet adapted. Point "most" of this model is its versatility sound, I t also bluff by the sustain of this guitar is as thin as cigarette paper (j'exagre a bit but the location of the body broadest measure 2cm and thinner than 1cm), the beauty of this instrument that I had seen on magazine (even if i was a little retissant at dor fawn bling of: Mechanical) and the quality of the materials. The small dot "less" of this model - but it's a personal element - that is the handle. I got it too flat and does not slide very well but I must admit I am a follower of the round handle type Les Paul and I made some bad habits with the quality of the polish pass on the stick my PRS that provides a quality surf any evidence. The big point "less" is the availability of this instrument. If you have the chance to drop it in a store jump at the chance to try it because it is only very little distributes in Europe and waiting Time limits may be several months (it is handmade). For my part, I had the luck of the Representative to Ibanez in my store prfr which began tearing their hair out when I told him this model because it evoked had only three in the area and not sure they n'tait taient available at time of my order. Luckily, I REU next week. So do not count it a try. The solution is to do a test with an Ibanez S series of the EGENI 18 the same basis except of sr mics but you will be able to test the form, the ergonomics and guitar neck.
Like all products from Ibanez, the quality price ratio is excellent. It is with this product in a range well above models of brands from overseas and for a much LOWER price. remains even when a very dear (2,200 euros) but it's good stuff pro tration, which should not move and is expected to sell well on the second hand market. It is therefore an investment I would do if c'tait the case.
Since perfection is not, I can not put a 10.
