«  Not age too badly ... »

Published on 11/22/10 at 03:00
It dates from 1995 and was much trimballée. I think at the time it was made in Korea.
The headstock is the most current, but is a true copy of Gibson.


UTILIZATION

I used a lot in the 90s. Much less in 2000, because the mechanics started to play tricks on me, and it required revision.
Upon purchase, I replaced the pickups with Seymour (59 + SH4).
The microphones were not really terrible origins.
The handle is quite fine and pleasant, the body not too heavy. It tends to pitch down in the standing position.
I stood out here one year, I reffrettée I changed the mechanics (SCHALLER) completely resolved.
I take pleasure to use.


SOUNDS

Sound (with Seymour) is very versatile. Jazz, Rock, Blues ...
It has more sustain with his 15 years at the very beginning.
I'm a fan of Blues Rock, and it is a nice alternative to Telecaster / Stratocaster.
She keeps some very nice shine.



OVERALL OPINION

With 15 years of hindsight, I can say that the violin does not move. The hardware is not oxidized too. the defects are corrected departures; microphones, mechanical.
To date, I would look more towards a BB King or Sheraton, or certainly to a Nick Valensi already has good mechanical and good microphones.
