Vigier Excalibur Special maple neck with Di Marzio pickups (PAF Pro in neck, middle and simple tone zone in bridge)
Maple Bolt 90/10 carbon reinforcement without adjustment possible (no need!) pitch type fender, broad and flat, good polish;
vibrato on Rolling ball goes non-floating (sustain)
Alder body, maple table + beautiful
selector 5 "(not possible to have just one but two splits humbuckers instead) brand Schaler it seems;
volume and tone
+ 24 fret 0 frets medium jumbo excellent (low action without curls)
Graphite nut and guide ropes
Schaler mechanical blocking (very good performance of the agreement with use of vibrato)
violin and exemplary finish, all made in France!
Pouche by no cons and delivery time can be long (but c the grate of luthier, so ...)

UTILIZATION

The handle is for me the best ever cre!
Imagine a handle ultra fast robust frettsans rglage well and does not move regardless of the firing temperature and so on ... like a magic stick excalibur!
If you are a Lancelot of the guitar, nothing will seem impossible to play (taping, sweep, slap ....)
for the rest c's all good except perhaps Access in acute improved.
Note the fragility of the switches, knobs and the jack socket, so that the screw rod vibrato that might screw up the long, otherwise the wiring is clean and the cavities are shielded.

SOUNDS

For adpend sounds like or if not di Marzio and affects Rabl.
I test myself with Seymour Duncan and others, and your exact Di Marzio is very different.Avec 59 nd in a race I won heat for the blues (more realistic that the paf pro)
Microphones for home, see Reviews for Di Marzio!
The only personal default of the grate c not to be!
Let me explain:
C The only limit you, so we just look for all the sounds (the intermediate positions are superb)
If you should not have DiMarzio, well change them!
If you need a versatile instrument, which is good agreement (Vibrato allows an almost acrobatic flyod; galres sustain more and less!) And is easily adjusted, no problems! !
However if you grate a strong personality, very blues oriented sounds vintage with which you have to fight (les paul, vintage strat ...) you do not like the ease of its marvelous sleeve!
The Excalibur c for the game fast and technical, the choice of microphones is crucial to overcome the lack of possibly personnalitdu guitarist?).

OVERALL OPINION

My overall opinion? One of the most beautiful creation of the world's six string too perfect, but does not make perfect; a stratocaster is not yet his weaknesses are all the charm! A MDIT ...
