This guitar lacks it and I think the main cause is the tremolo system. While the construction of the guitar is neat and the sound is good, there is a couple of things in what this guitar doesn't go so far. As I said before it is all in the quality of Seymour Duncan pups. The sounds for distorted are nice too but I have to say the humbucker is the winner here hands down. All the sounds are usable, and they sound fine.
But that kind of sound has it's own personality. I find this model pleasantly good for clean sounds, as I always say, these kind of superstrats has a "strat-oid" sound similar to strats, but not the same. The top has a flamed maple veneer, nice to the look but it doesn't affect to the sound in my opinion. You can read in the specs it has an alder body, but I feel mine very lightweight, as if it were made of basswood.
I had to do that because at the beginning it had hum problems.Īlso I modded the humbucker adding a push-pull split coil which added a nice couple sounds more. The electronics in this one were a mess and I had to replace all the components for a Dimarzio set. This model is a cheaper option based on the great SL1 Soloist American model, one of the most remarkable differences is the neck (SL1 has Neck-thru-body) and this one has bolt on. Nice construction overall, with no flaws, super straight neck, neat in the details.

My first impression with this guitar was really good, at that time I was looking for a replacement for my older Aria Pro II XR series (HSS configuration strat) I got it used from a web selling site. Floyd Rose Licensed Jackson Low Profile JT580 LP double-locking 2-Point Tremolo Jackson-licensed Floyd Rose low-profile double locking trem Seymour Duncan pickups: STK-1 single-coil(mid and neck), JB TB4 humbucker(bridge) Bound rosewood compound-radius fingerboard Alder body with flamed maple top (transparent finishes only) It could be a metal guitar, but it's more than that. It has the look you could expect for a 80's metal guitar. I got this guitar in 2012 and I still have it.
