Nothing but good things to say about my OZ SRM! I've had it a few months now and I love it. It feels suberb in hand and the build quality and crafsmanship is top notch. It's the small details like the way the switch and knobs feel and the quality of the fretwork that sets it apart from guitars made by other companies that are similarly priced. It's now my go to guitar and I look forward to picking it up everytime I play it. If you're thinking about getting one, do it, you won't be disappointed.

Purchased the white Vola OZ SRM to compliment my OZ RV TNC, got to be honest the SRM has become my go to guitar, I love the RV TNC but I love the feel, the quality of the build ,what a great guitar for the price.
If Vola can build these quality guitars for the low cost they charge ,makes you wonder why other brands can't.

Après 5 ans passés sur une Fender Player HSS, j'avais envie de changer. Je joue essentiellement à la maison et en jam entre amis, avec très peu de scène. Je suis plutôt shredder et je joue exclusivement aux doigts.

La guitare est arrivée en France en environ 5 jours, parfaitement emballée dans son carton et sa housse rembourrée. Aucun problème à signaler à la réception.

Elle était presque accordée ! J'ai simplement dû réaccorder la corde de Sol et ajuster très légèrement deux autres cordes. Une fois cette petite manipulation effectuée, la guitare était parfaite. Les réglages d'usine semblent vraiment optimisés : vibrato, hauteur des cordes et hauteur des micros.

Premier test : bends sur toutes les cordes et à toutes les frettes... aucun « frizzz » ! C'est un vrai plaisir.

Le manche est fin et très agréable en main. La guitare est légère et plutôt compacte, ce qui lui donne une sensation de dynamisme très appréciable.

Côté son, les micros sont nets et précis. Pour la couleur sonore ou la chaleur, cela reste une affaire de goût. Avec les cordes neuves, le son est assez métallique, mais après quelques heures de jeu, il devient plus agréable. À mes oreilles, cette guitare est davantage orientée métal/rock moderne que blues. Le son est très propre, sans parasites, ce qui est vraiment impressionnant.

En revanche, je ne perçois pas énormément de différence de caractère entre les différents micros. La nuance reste assez subtile ; c'est surtout leur niveau de sortie qui change. L'écart est même assez important entre le micro manche et celui du chevalet. C'est sans doute volontaire pour mieux ressortir en solo.

La finition blanche est magnifique. La peinture est impeccable, tout comme les finitions générales : frettes, manche, assemblage... Rien à redire.

Les petits points à améliorer
Deux des blocs de cordes se sont desserrés après quelques déplacements (sans doute à cause des vibrations pendant le transport dans la housse). Je les ai simplement resserrés. J'espère qu'ils resteront bien en place.
La prise jack, placée sur la tranche inférieure de la guitare, m'oblige à utiliser un câble coudé lorsque je joue affalé dans mon fauteuil.
Attention à la sangle : elle peut se décrocher assez facilement. Des strap locks (blocs-sangle) sont, selon moi, indispensables.
Conclusion

Pour ce tarif, c'est une véritable merveille. Je changerai peut-être les micros un jour, non pas parce qu'ils sont de mauvaise qualité, mais simplement pour obtenir une couleur sonore plus proche de mes goûts. Merci VOLA pour le sérieux de votre approche et de nous livrer un produit fini ! Celle que j'ai reçue me fait passer dans un autre monde et ridiculise les autres guitares que j'ai pu avoir

PS : J'ai passé commande juste avant le début de la promotion... Dommage ! Je n'ai donc pas reçu les strap locks ni les autres accessoires offerts, qui m'auraient pourtant été bien utiles.

La Vola OZ SRM est une excellente guitare qui allie confort, esthétique et qualité sonore. J'ai trouvé son manche particulièrement agréable à jouer : fluide, bien profilé, il permet une prise en main naturelle aussi bien pour le jeu rythmique que pour les solos. L’instrument est très bien pensé sur le plan technique ; tout semble à sa place et le poids est parfaitement équilibré, ce qui la rend agréable, même lors de longues sessions.

Côté son, les micros offrent une palette très riche et expressive, allant de sons clairs dynamiques à des saturations pleines de caractère. Le design, à la fois sobre et moderne, complète parfaitement l’ensemble. Bref, une guitare inspirante, aussi belle à regarder qu’à jouer !

Love this guitar. I purchased this guitar blindly without having played a Vola before, and it was a risk well taken. Haven't picked up my other guitars since I got it. The neck is an absolute joy to play-the craftsmanship is really better than I had imagined. Strongly considering picking up another Vola asap.

Owned for 6 months. Havent been able to put it down. Its the smoothest neck and the pickups sound amazing. Everything about this guitar is perfect. The guitar was in tune at delivery. I mean.... come on. It rups and its a grear price. Want to buy a 2nd Vola now.

The guitar came perfectly setup. Good sounding pickups, and Vola even refunded me when I got charged for customs! Amazing

The not as important, but still so appreciated:
-Shipping was fast, came early.
-Payment process was easy, direct is under rated.
-Price is, for the first in a while I feel, justified completely.

The more important, and doubly appreciated:
-Overall quality/fit n finish is superb. I don’t usethe word lightly.
-Frets are smoooooth, rounded nicely, nothing sticking out, no pokes.
-(not talked about enough) Electronics/ wiring also superb! Pickups grounded, switch and pots grounded in addition to normal bridge ground. Awesome to see.
-No issues in paint
-Neck is slippery, stable, responds so well to truss rod adjustments.
-Hardware is great, Gotoh Is what I buy to upgrade stock parts.
-Comfort leaves nothing to be desired. Neck profile is not too thin. Not too thick. Access is great (new iteration of neck joint?). Cutaways are comfy.
-Soft shell case is fantastic quality.
-Sonically loud, great sustain. Really leaps even when not plugged in.

Cons:
- I don’t like playing a lot of my other guitars anymore. It actually sucks a little bit.

To wrap it up, it plays amazing, got here fast, sounds awesome, and is priced well. Dunno, can’t put it down.

This is quality workmanship, a beautiful guitar, and a delight to play! I love the roasted maple neck, and the guitar is light enough to not dig into my shoulder while avoiding any kind of neck dive. The satin finish doesn't show fingerprints, and the quality fretwork means no rough edges or high spots. Highly recommended guitar! If Vola keeps making guitars like this they will quickly rise through the ranks in popularity and start showing up on stages across the world.

I chose this model because I like simple, controlled guitars.good sound and great Quality!

One of my faves!

Had about 2 weeks with this incredible guitar and have to say its absolutely stellar in every way.
The pickups sound amazing in every position and the neck is a work of art, by far the nicest neck I've ever played. Glad i settled on this model and would recommend Vola to anyone seeking boutique craftsmanship at a fraction of the price.

Incredibly fast ahipping and a beautiful quality guitar. I definitely will be purchasing more in the future.

Wicked stuff. I have been looking for a metal guitar for awhile, but never really connected with one. I came across this beauty and it just checked all the boxes for me.

This is a beautiful guitar. The neck, the craftsmanship and the tuning stability, everything about it.

I would have honestly paid more if i got my hands on it in a store. Favourite guitar i own now!

Awesome guitar arrived perfectly set up and plays better than guitars 2x $$

I received my guitar quicker than I thought I would, and it is wonderful. I used the code from Agufish, shoutout! I have multiple American made guitars and this one is easily as good or better than some, stellar instrument.

Top sales service

Awesome guitar. The neck is the best feeling neck I have ever played. Ive always used Strats and Teles but wanted a Japanese crafted shredder style. The guitar was actually perfectly in tune out of box! Like what!? Only been less than a week but this shreds and sounds and feels amazing! Highly recommend!

Best bang for buck out there right now

I bought this guitar a week ago and i gotta say im impressed with the build quality and the feel of the fretboard .it stays in tune and it locks good .

Keep it up. My first Vola-not my last. Counting my pennies for the next one.

This guitar is a great platform to build on. The guitar plays incredibly well and is very stable. The pickups are pretty good, but I prefer other pickup choices, so I swap them. I now have two of these guitars: a black one with Suhr Aldrich and a white one with Suhr SSH+, and I love them both. I’ve been through so many damn high end guitars, and I wish I would have found Vola sooner.

Amazing playing guitar for the money. Actually doesn't even matter about the $ because design and build quality is what makes a great guitar.This axe has a ton of my fave features with super sexy neck, reverse head stock, light weight, great balance and great overall playability. Pick ups are nice and balanced with crisp string definition which I really like with gain. Now I got to figure out which one I need next.

My first Vola... the first of a big série.
A perfect guitar, very nice to play, gréât sounding, lightweight and perfect construction. I bought it, and didn't knew how gréât mas this instrument. Now it's my main guitar, and play everyday with it. For the price, you have the greatest guitar in your hands, a guitar which quality equals many other popular brands. No need to hésitate, just go for Vola

I have this guitar for a few months now, it's the one I'm looking for. I can say that it's hard to find a guitar with this built quality in this price. Yeah, everyone should have this....

This is my 3rd guitar from Vola. The build quality, setup and features (locking tuners, stainless steel frets, roasted maple neck etc.) are fantastic._x000d_
Whenever I pick up the guitar I barely have to tune it - so the tuning stability is really good. _x000d_

I really like the roasted maple neck and the stainless steel frets._x000d_

Pickups sound great. _x000d_

The only feature I still have to get used to is the reversed headstock. It's still kind of awkward for me but I'm sure I'll get used to it.
