UTILIZATION

- Channel enjoyable, trs Access in good treble.
- Weight nice (to play long standing, for example) and good balance.
- VERY enjoyable to use. The unusual shape dplaire (like mini lespaul with Oues), but once the industry's premium on the form!
- The Blues P90 pickups are amazing! I do not know what a Fender that contributes to the characters of this guitar, like poplar and Saddle used in violin making.

SOUNDS

Sounds a shovel, a spade as a stratum or a telecaster, a meowing like a SG and snores like a Les Paul, what the weather!
Blues yes, but it's not just in the belly of this guitar ...
But be careful, do not push too hard in the beautiful distortion and overdrive other extreme, under penalty of feedback.
In a LED, the range of her is so broad that nothing scares him.

OVERALL OPINION

Buy new (thousand euros) to assist my Lespaul, a year ago.
I was looking for another palette of sounds, I do not have the t!
Tuning forks, shape, sound and out of the standard Gibson matrial, and gives his characters.
Even if it plays in the yard "Fender" is a real Gibson. Quality and finish confirms.
A small wonder at the cost of a Fender mxicaine.
-> Production shall adopt in 2006.
