UTILIZATION

The neck is quite thin (normal Ibanez) and pleasant. It is quite fast and the acute CASC is easy.
The guitar is well pluttlgre balance, easy to play
But the s'arte not expect luxury. Done in Asia and is the first prize. So has aged badly, even has rust. But this price (250 euros) that goes for all guitars.

SOUNDS

Honntement for this price the sound is rather pretty. You can play everything. I use a small Marshall MG15HDFX and sound for this type of guitar is honnorable.

The pickups provide a sound not too dgueu knowing that it's low end.
The humbucker is correct, and simple enough hot pickups (but flat is normal) but not bad for small blues

I bought the guitar when I started 4 years ago, I had many opportunities of comparing the Squier 400 euro from my buddy. Bin honntement the Squier silent drops. She had a very loud sound of duck.

Now it is ridiculous from my PRS, but sometimes I play with my home and I come out almost the Dire Straits sound.

Parcontre vibrato, it's just to see what was done when you use it, because we feel serves ds can be connected. I would not say it's crap because there are far worse but it is not.
And sometimes it sounds a bit wrong in the agreements, sometimes even passing the 10 minutes given. (No need to settle the pitch search)

But I told him 8 / 10. Not because it has a more beautiful sound than a Gibson, but for the price because it does not sound dgueu from certain.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years and I think it is to learn what it takes.
When I went to the store to buy it, I also try a Cort X silent even when below and CHRE.
For beginners who want to learn to play I recommended.

In overall score but I told him 8 / 10 because all the guitars do not sound 200 euros as well and all are not equally easy to play.
