DrMAB « Les Paul + blues =??? ...... Classic 57/57 +! »
Published on 09/11/12 at 13:15These two (beautiful) microphones have replaced the original ones with an Epiphone LP. Who can not afford to offer Traditionnal Gibson, I opted for the transformation of the Asian cousin.
The goal here is not to say all the good I think of the little Epi (I also left a review on its own product page), but frankly, with this pair of Classic 57, we come squarely in another dimension, the big boys in some way ...
If I let myself tempted by the adventure Les Paul, it was primarily to open my horizon of blues-man accustomed to monogamy with his strat, but glancing toward adultery humbucker. So for me, double windings = passage Clapton / Guy Led Zep, possibly more in the hard 70, but not large saturations.
Well, bingo! I find with all these mics creamier than I expected from a Les Paul, a large reserve of power but always with elegance and harmonic endlessly. It's round, it's hot, and if you push the volume knob, rekindles the fire with a grain very 'Pagien. "Riffs AC / DC also go very well.'s Gary Moore And, I do not even speak (in fact if: amazing!)
The grave (57) is really perfect for me, because very typical blues. The chevlaet (57 more) is talking faster powder than his colleague of the handle. I do not think that only the small difference between their output levels (the basic argument for the creation of 57 "plus") explains that: height adjustment must also intervene.
I've done what Mr. Gibson called me and was on his own guitars (a couple 57/57 + so) but I'm not sure basically a couple 57/57 has sounded very differently (after saw the small difference in price compared to the total cost ...).
Clarification, I redid all the electronics including condos bumblebee put: to take into account as they affect the sound.
The prices might seem high, but this is the kind of micro which we do not discard (unless they have really stuck in musical direction sought). There are many mics cheaper, but if you are demanding and do not hesitate to change to achieve perfection. Save time (and money): take all these Gibson-de-away!
