Amazing guitar, no regrets.
popanakonopa 06.02.2024
This guitar hit every spec I wanted. It has the 27 inch scale, amazing pickups, comes stock with straplocks, locking tuners and an Evertune. The color is way more beautiful in person, the neck is actually darker than any photos would lead you to believe and I am immensely satisfied. The guitar is a perfect combination of modern specs and cool 1980s superstrat aesthetics.
The pickup configuration makes for a lot of variety with very limited controls. There are no push-pull knobs, the blade switch is only a 3 way, yet using the volume controls correctly allows you to even coil split the bridge pickup.
The Evertune bridge is extremely intuitive and if one has had to deal with a Floyd Rose-style bridge, this would feel like a walk in the park.
One issue I had on my particular guitar - which does not imply that this is an issue with the model - is that I experienced significant grounding issues. That is a quick fix for someone with some experience. That being said, this is a guitar priced at nearly 2k euro - thus, it was rather disappointing. That being said, once fixed, the guitar became absolutely jaw-dropping.

Hell yeah

What can I say. Once I saw the specs on this bad boy I had to get it straight away. I have been looking for a 27" scale 7 string with an evertune for a while now and to finally find one with a set of bare knuckle pickups already in it was just *chefs kiss*.
The guitar was set up pretty well from the get go and only minor string height adjustements were necessary (but I guess that depends on preference).
The neck shape feels very nice and fast to me and the fret job on my guitar was immaculate.
The finish also looks really cool in person and I love that they left the natural neck because I prefer the feel of that over glossy necks.
The pickups sound very nice and balanced and I think they sit quite well in a mix.
I would have loved to see stainless steel frets on this guitar, but other than that it's absolutely amazing.

Eine Modern Metal Maschine

Ich habe mir diese Gitarre gekauft weil ich hauptsächlich von den Eigenschaften überzeugt war. Ich benutze dieses Instrument hauptsächlich im Heimstudio wo ich kleinere Demos und Covers aufnehme.

Pros:
+ Die Gitarre kam in einem hochwertigen Softcase welches eher an ein Hardcase erinnert an.
+ Das Evertune hält was es verspricht, einmal korrekt eingestellt ist die Stimmung stabil. Und ja, Bendings gehen immer noch sofern die Bridge korrekt eingestellt ist
+ Bare Knuckle Pickups: Diese Pickups glänzen bei Low-Tunings. Das Drop F# Tuning kam durch den Verzerrten Sound glasklar rüber und hörte sich nicht matschig an. Ein Shortcut für den Modern Metal Sound.
+ durch die 27 Zoll Mensur lassen sich auch dünnere Saiten aufziehen für Tiefe Tunings. In meinem Fall waren es 10-64 für Drop F#.

Cons:
- Der Hals ist sehr dünn. Erinnerte mich schon fast an die Wizards-Necks von Ibanez.
- Das Evertune System ist in der Hinsicht vergleichbar mit dem Floyd Rose, dass das ändern von Tunings ein Setup voraussetzt.
- Bei meinem Model war der Bridge-Pickup leicht schräg eingeschraubt. War aber dennoch einfach zu beheben.
- Gewicht: Hierbei handelt es sich nicht um ein leichtes Instrument, da das Evertune einiges and Gramm hinzufügt.

Fazit:
Das Instrument liefert was es verspricht: Einen klaren Sound für tiefe Tunings mit überzeugender Stimmstabilität. Zusätzlich ist das Instrument ein wahrer Hingucker durch die Farbe (welche in echt noch viel "leuchtender" wirkt) und dem Stratstyle Headstock. Die "Cons" welche ich aufgezählt habe sind hauptsächlich meiner Präferenz gewidmet, ansonsten ist es ein stabiles Instrument welches in dieser Preisklasse mit diesen Spezifikationen schwer zu übertreffen ist.
