USE

Channel early 60s whose nitro lacquer on the back was intentionally treated for maximum comfort.
Ergonomics hair. Body beautifully patinated relic slightly but not too cracked varnish ... Perfect! An original one would think. High-end!
Access to the treble is excellent. In terms of weight, the instrument is well balanced and light. We easily get the desired sound.


SOUNDS

She excels in every vintage styles: Blues, Rock 50-70's, Country ...
Plugged into a '57 Fender Twin, a Bandmaster is divine ...:-)
Warm sounds crunch or crystalline clear.
CS '60 pickups are accurate. 5 positions are very different and all sound incredibly well, with a preference for intermediate positions.
A marvel sustain and vibration.


NOTICE GLOBAL

Acquired recently, I tried several models of long cutom quite exceptional Shop, my choice stopped on it.
The violin is superb, one is in the high end, a beautiful instrument.
Certainly a big budget, but once the instrument in hand, one does not regret his choice:-)
