I have the wi64dl and because of the excessive treble roll-off in the single pick-up mode at anything less than 7 on the volume control I have to tweak the tone with a Digitech rp250 to get it to sound bright and airy.
@headstock48 Its lighter than both Stratocaster & Les Paul & very solid a great Guitar but My favourite I got at Service Merchandise for around $34.00 It looked like a Fender Stratocaster but had a thinner body & the nut was at the end of the finger board like a Les Paul Not In the finger board and the head stock did Not curve down It was straight like a Les Paul It was light and easy to play.
@jjleonel97 yes It can be a beginners Guitar If You can afford It, Its actual Guitar Not a toy. When they say something as Is good for a Beginner or You get what You pay for or save You money buy something better, It does Not mean the product Is Inefficient It means someone Is trying to sell You something more expensive. Also far as I Am concern 2 piece neck & body are just as good one piece & cost much less, see prices at Amazon & The Woodwind & Brasswind. com
I have one... and it is the best possibly buy in the guitar market. I got it for about $450 from guitar center.com.... I can't describe how good it is. It is extremely comfortable to play, and the neck is very thin and smooth.
@headstock48 I don't know. I am looking around on the internet for that info. According to Amazon.com, it weighs 20 pounds. Is that an unreasonable number? I have no comparison. In my opinion, it is a bit lighter than an SG, and much lighter than a tele or a les. Hope that helps. good luck!
@SNAZZYGOLDFISHES Thanks. And yes, twenty pounds? That sounds wrong to me, and I know very little about electric guitars. I think an average weight is maybe ten pounds?
@SNAZZYGOLDFISHES Yes, It is extremely comfortable to play, and the neck is very thin and smooth. I've bought Wasb HB32 DM (hollowbody) too -pretty nice but the neck is old fashion and this is the adifference! It's Ok but Inow I like thin neck ever more
fuck all you. this man is better than other guitarists in demos. heavy metal isn't metallica, isn't gun's n roses, isn't megadeth.. you are stupid guys :)
hi, you get the "roll control" on vintage advance guitars. that rolls off the humbuckers to single coils and all the tones in between! so yes you can get it on another guitar!
This is the best feeling neck I have played since I lost an old 70s SG with a custom neck - I suspect that custom neck also had a 14 inch radius - which I suspect is rare-- I have been trying to try out one of the shreder Washburns but there are simply not many Washburns inventoried in the stores-- I don't understand it bc you gotta play a guitar and feel it to want to buy one, ergo, to sell one???
I have this exact guitar same color and everything, the only problem is I have a peavy valveking 212 and it sounds like total ass. I dont know if I got a defect amp that's just crappy or what but I haven't heard my guitar sound like this ever :(
the problem is that sound of your amp is very heavy. and this guitar greatly distorts the sound. I supose it's sounds with a lot of noise, very dirty. is it?
I would highly recommend this guitar to any beginner/intermediate level player who wants a good quality guitar without breaking the bank. It's very light (solid mahogony but a very thin body) which might be desirable for younger players. You can usually find a used one on Ebay for around $200 or about $400 new.
i bought one of these bad boys in 2004 I beleive it is the balls for the price all day. I would play this over a Les Paul Studio, the feel is awsome tone 2 thumbs up
They had one at a second hand instrument shop across the street from where i work. I think someone had replaced the knobs, tuners and bottom string piece with this rustic looking copper pieces. Looked awesome. Was gonna buy it but someone beat me to it : /
it's pretty much the cheap guitar of the idol series, I love mine, much better that other cheapo guitars. It doesn't stay in tune as much as other guitars, but I don't mind. The pick-ups are a bit weird-sounding, not bad, but different.
omg i have that exact same guitar only it's not that darkish red, it's a lightush blue, i love it it works so good, but it was my only present for christmas lol
great guitar, got one myself (in black chrome), great tones, love it :D
