Washburn PX SOLAR 7 – Orange Dual Dark 50 - Metal test

[Voron]

Hi guys!
I've searched for a Solar tread with no luck. So created one...

Here is my test for a Washburn SOLAR 7 (this one is Indonesian made) with Orange Dual Dark 50 into Torpedo Live.
I've done this for my friends in local guitar store so review part in French (sorry!)



Any Solar users here? Indonesian or US models? What are your experiences with it?
I'm thinking to buy US made version, but without Evertune. Not really dig in it.

Metal tested, metal approved!

Nice! I'm hoping some Solar's start showing up in shops here in the US. I've been dying to check 'em out!

 

[Voron]

Thanks guys! I'm really dig in this axe, really impressive... But need to try US one!!! The price surely not the same, but think the build will be another level.

[Steve-Om]

I gotta say nice playing, great quality vid and... your tone! Very nice, did you boost the Dual Dark?

 

[Voron]

Thanks man!
Yes I boosted it with Maxon OD808, drive = 0, Tone at noon, Volume at noon.
Just some kind of treble booster

I just got occasion to try this Indonesian made one. Will be nice to try US made! But no one here in Paris. So it was my question if someone tried it?
Just know that there are Evertune versions and non-Evetrune.

Hey man, how is the neck? Is it close to an Ibanez neck?

It's close, but not so flat-back as Ibanez. It's more C shape. But it's really comfortable. And access is great. I just can't dig in Evertune bridge. It's great, and tuning stability is amazing but it's not my trip. Just personal incompatibility I think

what about the thinkness? close?

 

[Voron]

Very close. Just a little bit thicker.
