UTILIZATION

This guitar, for all intents and purposes, is a Les Paul. I don't mean it's like a Les Paul, I mean it IS a Les Paul. Obviously, it is not made by Gibson, and Gibson is the originator and true owner of the Les Paul name. But really, this guitar is so identical to a good Les Paul Custom, that the only discernible difference is in the brand name on the headstock. It plays like a Les Paul, smooth and buttery. Unfortunately it is as heavy as a Les Paul as well - in the 9 pound area! But, again, this is a functionally identical guitar, so expect all aspects to be as spot-on as possible.

SOUNDS

This guitar sounds just like a good Les Paul. The neck pickup can sing with a beautiful warm bloom, and the bridge pickup has a great bite to it. The sustain on this Burny is just as good as on a Les Paul. Genre-wise, this guitar is great for jazz, classic rock, metal, country, and about anything else one can think of.

OVERALL OPINION

This is a fantastic instrument. Some people would be angry about its design and looks, stating that it is a copyright infringement. I'm not here to argue, so with the validity or not of arguments such as these aside, this guitar, to me, is a fantastically built instrument, and it has every bit the quality that a good old Les Paul Custom has. 9 out of 10 overall.

To this I add a nitrocellulose and all parts of the format Gibson.

UTILIZATION

- The handle is it enjoyable?
It suits me perfectly.
- Access in acute (dernires freight) is it easy?
The non ... paul style: so the thumb stops at the 16th box.
- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
The weight of this rplique Les Paul is exceptionally lightweight ... This does not augur the best but for once, this does not affect the characteristics of acoustic guitar. (A wood does not bode too dense for the best either)
- Gets it easy to sound good? ...
Well yes! especially since it is particularly easy to play guitar

SOUNDS

- Appropriate are your style of music?
Until the well. But the worse is that the sound of this little wonder Copy guide my musical style!
- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
It passes through the Vamp in general. If tested in a Marshall Valvestate, a JCM 900, Fender Deluxe and a Mesa Boogie.
- What kind of sound you get and with what rglages ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
The sounds of the "les paul", often bold, however. The sound can be a lack of finesse, and is a little hot all the time, but it is a priori what I want to achieve with this guitar so ....
- What are the sounds you prfrez, you dtest?
I love all the sounds of this guitar (intermdiaire position, ie the 2 humbuckers at the same time provides a much more interesting than the epiphone version for some reason ...)

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
I use it now for 5 months as my main guitar.
- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
the rplique the smallest details of a les paul custom (and when I say dtails, I am not exaggerating: the binding on the frets to mention that detail ...)
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Oh yes ... Epiphone, Greco, Orville, and Ibanez bienentendu: GIBSON
- How do you report qualitprix?
Well for once jele is more than perfect. the guitar is the lowest price that I bought that day but this is my favorite!
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
I should hope so! It even already planned: D

Burny LP custom japan - 1979 or 1980-aged white
HB 2 Burny VH-1-excellent (I thought the change, but it's too good!)
config gnrale: Hyper-known (LP)
mahogany neck, rosewood touches, from binding on the frets
Triple body binding front / rear - head
Burny and diamond logo (Burny) in abalone, taken as key
triple ply pickguard

UTILIZATION

I had time a Gibson studio (with key BNE) and the handle of that) is much thinner (but even when Submitted) frets much smaller. This handle is a rgal! Access in acute: LP!
The sound is simply the best (my taste) of all LP tried (a 20aine) the sustain is long, long and absolutely rgulier. I love the sounds are not the look: either the...…

UTILIZATION

I had time a Gibson studio (with key BNE) and the handle of that) is much thinner (but even when Submitted) frets much smaller. This handle is a rgal! Access in acute: LP!
The sound is simply the best (my taste) of all LP tried (a 20aine) the sustain is long, long and absolutely rgulier. I love the sounds are not the look: either the "crunchy limit" one who comes from a single attack of mediator, and what I love above all: that the great jazz mellowsound K. Burrell. This sound is also the low volume (plenty of bass) With fat Satus, trs is good too (it is less my cup of tea!)
The only restriction is well crystalline treble no!
This is an opportunity, of course: the white ivory has become over time (the original white pickguard is found in the)
I thought (before receiving it) and change the hardware buttons, well no, scratch that avcu and trs well VCU, she is superb as has! I care!

SOUNDS

The sound is simply the best (my taste) of all LP tried (a 20aine) the sustain is long, long and absolutely rgulier (does not drop). I love the sounds are not the look: either the "crunchy limit" one who comes from a single attack of mediator, and what I love above all: that the great jazz mellowsound K. Burrell. This sound is also the low volume (plenty of bass) With fat Satus, trs is good too (it is less my cup of tea!)
The only restriction is well crystalline treble no!

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a long time I was looking trs an LP (I had a studio) and I often brake given the quality "gamble" in Gibson and ... prices. Following a number of opinions (very) positive about MIJ rplique of '80, I bought it in Japan by the net-free trial, although sr! well, that's the best deal I've ever done (I have 15 guitars) Price: 400 euros including taxes and shipping! qualitprix report I'll let you judge!
So, just a little advice: Precipitation Occurred you, these prices will not last! Burny, Edwards, Tokai and Navigator (aa started the climb!) Note, are present Coren, it is not the same thing ...
I did not compare "cte - cte" with a Gibson LP, but with everything I tried is unnecessary photo. Burny and buried away from my ex trs-studio!
