It doesn't hurt to lubricate the nut slots either, with a little vaseline mixed with powdered graphite (pencil lead will do).Īt the tremolo end, we have a traditional fulcrum unit fixed to the body via six woodscrews in the time-honoured fashion, and the back-tension is provided by springs in the rear body cavity, the tension of which can be adjusted by moving the spring anchor claw. Two string trees keep the top four strings pushed down into the nut and, to prevent tuning problems, it is best to lubricate the underside of these with vaseline or a chap stick, especially if you plan to get medieval with the tremolo unit. There's nothing special about the machine heads, which are fully enclosed, low-cost models, but they work well enough. The fingerboard radius is fairly flat at around 12 inches or so, which helps prevent string choking when bending on the higher frets, and after a bit of a setup it would feel quite comfortable to play.
The neck is made from either maple or some far-eastern equivalent, and is fitted with narrow, shallow frets that have an early Fender vibe to them, though I prefer something a bit meatier myself. When individual pickups are selected, you can get hum and buzz if you're too close to your amplifier or to other electronic equipment, especially light dimmers, but this instrument is no worse than any other single-coil model in that respect. As with a Strat, the middle pickup is reverse-wound and has reversed magnets so that when the 'two pickup' positions are selected, the pickups work together as a humbucker and cancel out the majority of electromagnetic interference. As you'd expect from the five-way switching and the familiar three single-coil pickup arrangement, the iAxe393 sounds not unlike one of the budget Fender Squier Stratocasters, though the general styling sits somewhere between a Strat and a Yamaha Pacifica. The neck wasn't seated squarely in its pocket and the action was far higher than necessary, though the nut was reasonably well cut and the neck relief was about right.

In addition to being able to play along with MP3, WAV, AIFF and OGG (an alternative compression format to MP3) audio files, the install CD also includes Audacity, a multitrack recording and editing program so, if you're new to recording, you'll be able to find your way in gently.īehringer make some great claims for the quality of the guitar and, to be fair, given its low price it isn't a bad instrument, but if the one we received was anything to go by, it will benefit from being set up by somebody who knows what they are doing.

Normally a 30-day demo wouldn't be that thrilling, but the good news here is that when your time is up, you can have one of the three amp models free for keeps by registering at the NI web site using the info that comes with the iAxe393. It also includes a virtual tape machine for playing back loops or audio files, so you can use it as something to jam along to. Because most computers are easiest to set up using a single device to handle both the audio input and output, the guitar also includes a quarter-inch stereo headphone out jack for monitoring purposes.īundled with the guitar is a 30-day stand-alone demo version of the Native Instruments Guitar Combos software package, which models three classic amplifiers.

Behringer describe the iAxe393 as a high-quality electric guitar with built-in USB audio connection, the idea being that having an integral USB interface allows you to record directly into your Mac or PC, or to use real-time software guitar processing, without the added expense of a dedicated audio interface.
