barh2_0 « plutt not bad! »
Published on 12/18/11 at 12:58Made of Core priori. MODEL Epiphone original (no equivalent Gibson ...)
A semi-hollow single cut slightly bigger than a Les Paul (some centimtres longer and wider).
Channel 60 profile, 22 frets.
Two P90 dog ear, two volumes + master volume and master tone, three-position toggle switch 3.
A Bigsby!
UTILIZATION
In terms of ergonomics and comfort, we are in the "standards" Gibson: heavy, no bevels, just right ACCS Acute ... As a Les Paul, in a little more lightweight, not surprising from what is expected APRS a first look!
The big highlight is the handle, trs cool, enjoyable to play with "thumb over"!
For a semi-hollow, the form is restricted plutt is not ngligeable in terms of comfort.
The strong electronic feel trs the Gretsch (just like the rest dailleurs!): A micro volume + one master. A little over Drout cblages "Gibson", but many opportunities to position the microphones Balanant intermdiaire + master to play on the gain. Many versatile and readily available. It's a good point.
The Bigsby gche do nothing. A roller bridge will do wonders in complment.
SOUNDS
Aesthetics is a Russianness, the guitar is "sexy" and the catchy name. So we are hopeful in taking possession!
Unfortunately, falls like a bellows:
Unplug the sound is a bit dull and not very powerful (at the same time, its use is not too prvue ...).
branch, is a trs consensus: as its name suggests (Wildkat) was oriented rock'n'roll, rockabilly assume. The clean is slammed with a little tremolo, we feel push the banana hair cream.
The microphone is my neck and got P90 for a little "dull", has a more micro m'voque jazz master a real P90. So it was relatively easy jazzy sounds on this microphone. The micro bridge is closer to my expectations, more biting and snarling.
In many yrflchir, we are in the same Epiphone when, did his job but no more. The Russianness Aesthetics should not obscure the range of instrument where you are.
OVERALL OPINION
In conclusion, the Wildkat is a guitar trs cool, comfortable in the rock / rockab ', jazz, blues and roots rock (ZZ Top, Neil Young, ...). On a slightly heavier styles like AC / DC for beginners, may do so but it takes a bit of the register.
For hard rock and metal, I'll be honest, I did not try, I am for a different team and I do not think that has to do ...
I was looking for a semi-hollow with P90, a Bigsby and not too big as "deuxime guitar" (not too CHRE). In these CRITERIA, there are not many people Wildkat and doing well!
