«  Very good deal! »

Published on 08/31/10 at 04:34
Asian manufacturing guitar I suppose.
Floating bridge.
The handle is wide enough. But very pleasant. Consisting of 19 freight.
Mini humbrucker floating in the neck position.
One volume, one tone.

Tobaco sunburst; Hollowbody drilled holes.

Bof finishes on some details (glue drips, touch damaged) but overall very good for the price. The guitar is beautiful and generally looks solid.

UTILIZATION

The handle is nice, though a little wide. But hey that's great for its use.
Guitar balanced, lightweight and comfortable to play in general.
Difficult access to acute after the 14th fret because this is not the model cutway. It therefore has the same problem as the classics.

The sound is just naturally good. It is even unpluged very pleasant (though rather small).


SOUNDS

The sound is perfect for blues / garage as I do. Influences Jack Kay White with his 50's. I put three pellets to try an old kay guitar or modern in style for not too much before falling on the holy grail!
I play a Fender frontman (budget requires) and I'm not unhappy with the sound, even if it's not what I want in the end. Say it will be fine weather.

OVERALL OPINION

Really good guitar for the price. The only one I could find that was inspired by old kay 50's by adding to the strength. It is really its strong point for me.
Report qulité / discount and therefore I think the same choice again easily because it is THE guitar to play the blues without taking the head with its financial value and its upkeep.
After all this is what the bleusmen years. A guitar, a bottleneck and hop. No need to have the last Godin to 1000 €.
