- In which country was it made? (United States, Japan, Mexico, France ...)
Korea

- How many frets, what kind of micro as well as their configuration?
22 frets, 2 humbucker INF1 and INF2, and a simple INFS1.

- What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?
Floyd Rose.

- What are the settings (volume, tone, micro switch ...)?
2 buttons volume / tone, a 5-way switch.

- What type of race?
Flat and super fast!

UTILIZATION

- The handle is it fun?
Ultra fast, it requires a little adjustment ... about 5 minutes!

- Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?
No complaints on this point

- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
Very light guitar, which is very well the position that you want (unlike my Epiphone G400 itchy nose very easily ...)

- Gets it easy to sound good?
The distortion is very good: everything to the grave and go!
For its clear, it is more difficult to get a really nice sound, but not impossible!

SOUNDS

- They are suitable to your style of music?
That's what I wanted for my group (shot Rock / pop / metal), and I finally have found a distortion attacking enough.

- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
A 100W Hiwatt G100 112R

- What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
Well for the fat distortion, ideal for metal, putting the bass forward. The clean sound is less beautiful and you have to play the tone of the guitar to get something clean. But this guitar is not for the clear sound ...

- What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
The distortion is its advantage, it's no problem. The clear sound is definitely its weak point, although, again, no one buys this skyscraper to play gypsy jazz;)

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
2 weeks

- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I tried a jackson (but I forget the model) and a Fender Strato, both in the € 700 / 800.

- How would you rate the quality / price?
A little early to judge yet, but for now I'm not disappointed, quite the contrary!

- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Without a doubt!
