All user reviews for the Cheval Guitars 5 Strings Collector

One of the first two 5-string. Created by Franck Cheval in 1983. Bird's-eye maple neck-through with two oak leaf inserted on the body (for sustain). Flamed maple body (Maples are 400 years old) and ebony fingerboard. Bartolini pickups. Mechanical buttons 26 carat gold-plated. The bridge is a single model (like the instrument) made of bronze on a micromécanicien specifications dictated by Franck. (Ben at that time there were no 5-string! It was originally fitted with Seymour Duncan Quarter Point to 4-string, because it did not exist, nor microphones for 5-string!).

UTILIZATION

Channel 2 octaves. Perfection. Balanced sound unique. I use it mainly for jazz and blues.

SOUNDS

Associated with the Ampeg B115. We must listen! Deep bass, treble and fabulous crystal and Sustain .....
The Work of a Great Luthier.

OVERALL OPINION

I have over 20 years. The fretless bass of my dreams.
