Made by Gibson in Memphis (Tennessee). USA
22 frets, pickups 59 (dual coils). Two volumes and two tones of high quality. A 3-position switch, with Gibson classic.
The bridge is a Lespaul.
The handle is a Lespaul, a very good and nice finish.

UTILIZATION

The sleeve is very easy to play with an ebony fingerboard of the highest quality.
Access to the treble is great enough.
The instrument is heavy, but for its central beam of the body is essential.
The sound is very easy to sustain.

SOUNDS

I own archtop Jazz guitar maker and I wanted a gibson jazz with a spirit 335, I'm not disappointed because I play jazz.
I have a tube amp VOX, I love the sound.
The resulting sounds are fat, with a slight crystalline easily adjustable with a dial tone. I mainly use the microphone serious (mamche). For his sharp rock the mic is powerful and very well suited.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this guitar for 2 months.
The sound of jazz neck pickup is fine with me.
I had the opportunity to try a 335, an ES 137 Custom, I hesitated a lot between the two, but when I heard the sound fatter height of the Howard Roberts Fusion III I have all of subsequently appealed. So I do not regret my purchase.
In terms of price (2200 €) is still too expensive.
