This is a Mexican with 3 microphones simple type of Tex Mex. The neck is maple The coprs an alder. 5 position selector and volume control and tone (2)

Everything has been said about it, be it on the EU in general or this particular model. I put 9 / 10 taking into account the look of this edition ravaged Road Worn (personal love story but it's taste)

Mexico Start, 21 frets, 3 single Tex Mex, 5 position switch, handle and maple fingerboard, alder body. Worn as is fashionable these days. I was initially trying the dug-out, wear the pre-made factory irritated me, I thought it was a useless ... This being so, the marketing stunt is excellent.
