- Type model ES-335 semi-hollow
- Made in Indonesia According To Yamaha specifications
- 22 frets, 3 P-90, we get a little diagram showing the many combinations that can be achieved with 3 microphones
- Bigsby licensed vibrato. It provides very good performance of the agreement. For it is against less well developed than the Duesenberg especially with regard to the replacement string (a chopper technique is at that level :-)
- A volume control for microphone and a common tone knob 3. Two switches in the "horn" below for combinations of three microphones.
- Set neck
- Mechanical groove (great for keeping the agreement)

UTILIZATION

- The handle is very nice, the frets are relatively thin and tall. they provide a clear set
- The form 335 and a half box allows easier access to the 22 boxes
- Cutting 335 is very comfortable. The guitar is relatively heavy, I would compare to a Les Paul.
- The P-90 beautiful sound issue.
- I put 8 in the handle because I have two Duesenberg that are still a notch above the level of the ergonomics of the handle. But I am very pleased with the holding of the agreement and the hardware. I had some concerns at this level given that the price displayed is the third of a Gibson.

SOUNDS

- It is best to get an idea for yourself by having the chance to try a copy. The sound is very personal and more I am convinced that the more I come to more or less faithfully reproduce the sound that was ahead in most of the stuff existing in the same price range.
- For my part I play rock couillu accadacca way. I play on an old marshall head JMP50 watts with a master volume and add a little overdrive Boss gives warmth and well-rounded sound because we play at a more reasonable volume.
- The P-90 and above me have nothing to envy in terms of output level with humbuckers. This guitar was built on the basis of "requirements" of the guitarist from Queen Of The Stone Age, which produces a heavy Rock. The pickups are in keeping. I play mainly on the bridge pickup and I fell slightly in the treble of the head. I combine the drive head to that of the boss and I get sound to Malcolm Young: Right, dry, well squared and rough.
- The quality and output level of the microphone (which surprised me) and the many possible combinations are peremttre everyone to experiment and find a staff.

OVERALL OPINION

- I had pointed to for months for his look that attracted me and the price was really affordable. I just afraid it is too affordable and I did not know what to expect with P90.
- I have not been stopped by their place of origin. I recently saw a Gibson ES335 store US displayed Euro 2800 which was less well finished.
- After many months of hesitation, I had the opportunity to try a 503. When tested I strive always to check the comfort of the handle, the good performance of the Agreement and rendering microphones. The rest must wait until I return to my silks context of usual game. The trial was compelling and confirmed with a lot of happiness in the repeats that followed.
- I play for many years and I have had many guitars. The Yamaha sounds great. The price / quality ratio (given the style of music I do) is excellent. If this guitar was stolen I buy another without hesitation and I do not part with it anytime soon.
