Detailed specifications, do not bother to add, nice finish, class, color sunburst the most beautiful effect.
Less conventional microphone, a humbucker format simple two settings, volume and tone.

UTILIZATION

The neck is thin for an acoustic, close to what one might expect from a Les Paul, the mechanical tulip button are a bit tight and you lose a bit of agreement (well, nothing dramatic either!).
The guitar is comfortable and easy to play once you've assimilated the handle.
The strings are a little stiff and it must be frankly in return for sweet couène bends.

SOUNDS

Disconnected, the sound distribution is good, it gives good voice. The sound is a bit dry, rich mids, no one likes or elsewhere.
It becomes plugged roots devil, ideal for a good blues or the Beatles of course!
The sound is halfway between a hollow-body and acoustic (logic you tell me), it feels good smell of wood ...
This is a guitar with which we find no difficulty in his early exploits of the Fab Four, very insiprante, it allows you to atteller blues, several pickings, pop and a good acoustic rock.
I loved airais sounds a little more mellow and round, with bass having a bit more body.
I also have the idea of ​​adding a piezo soon to expand the sonic palette.

OVERALL OPINION

Now used for a little over five years, it makes me good and loyal service, it has a real personality, like that he comes in, even if it tolerates little approximation.
The little things (listed above) are far outweighed by its character.
A beautiful meeting ...
