UTILIZATION

The handle is that I like: large, flat, thin enough. Short, easy to play. CHAC is the acute ais. Nanmoins, it seems impossible to lower the strings, even a little, without "frieze" trs quickly, especially on the lower strings. Consquence: we must get used to playing with the strings off the handle. But the it is obvious that I have the bad habit of playing with my Les Paul Firebrand bne o key strings can rgler millimtre half a fret (or less!) no worries! But overall the handle remains ais (it is not handles Strato style "chicken neck" it said strait, feed, bombs, in short unplayable)
The guitar is pretty well lgre balance.
The violin and the varnish of good quality and seem especially trs is beautiful (I took Amber finish)

SOUNDS

In terms of microphones, is the rub. While overall this guitar seems Designed and well finished, the quality of the microphones is very poor. Be they single or double, the output level lev is especially the sound is rough and aggressive. SETTING THE play on pots does not change much. In addition, lowering the output volume is enlve a little bit of his "Saw". Me playing mostly blues and rock, is not suitable this style of music. But I think for "mtalleux" and "nag" does! It was nice to play clean, it's strident and mtallique, micro quelquesoit configuration we select.

OVERALL OPINION

Résumé in this guitar is beautiful (except the drawing of the head, but the staff is), it is well finished, with a good violin, the handle is enjoyable ...... but you have to change IMMEDIATE microphones, and I am sr trs trs it becomes a good scratch. So I started making SAVINGS to pay me a good microphone!
