A "Superstrat" Approach Designed for Versatility
With its decidedly modern spirit, this guitar follows the lineage of "superstrat" instruments: ergonomics oriented towards fast playing, an extended note range thanks to the 24 frets, and a pickup configuration designed to cover a wide sonic range. The choice of a basswood body and a rock-style vibrato makes it an instrument comfortable both in rehearsal and home studio settings.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
This guitar is well suited for beginner to intermediate guitarists seeking an easy-to-handle instrument, as well as more advanced players wanting a simple and effective platform. The HSS combination is particularly adapted to rock, metal, pop, and funk: you benefit from articulate clean sounds on the single coils and a more powerful register at the bridge for riffs and solos.
The Sound
The basswood (body) provides overall balance, with a homogeneous output that highlights the pickups and remains pleasant when overdriven. The maple neck favors attack and precision, while the rosewood fingerboard adds a softer feel under the fingers and a slightly rounder response. Regarding pickups, the STDS single coils (neck and middle) deliver defined clean tones, perfect for rhythm playing and arpeggios, while the STH2 humbucker at the bridge increases output level, enhances mids, and reduces noise for denser distortion. The FAT 10 vibrato allows adding expressive inflections, from subtle shimmer to more pronounced effects, depending on your touch.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To fully exploit the instrument, plan for a set of electric guitar strings, a strap, and a guitar jack cable (essential for playing through an amp or interface). A selection of picks in different thicknesses is also useful to refine your attack according to style.

It is my first electric guitar and in the opinion of my teacher it is for him a more than correct model to start with. Combined with a Fender Mustang 1 it produces a wide range of sounds that will delight more than one. After 15 days of use I changed the original strings with Ernie Balls which has the effect of further improving the quality of the sound. Provide a double microphone height control because mine was set at an angle.
