MGR/skillet « DeArmond M75T »
Published on 06/05/02 at 15:00I was on vacation in Toronto Canada and happened across a Lefty M75T in Steve's Music. I purchased it because i was hooked after trying it out for 5 minutes. This guitar sounds and feels great! I paid about $390 U.S. No way would i spend $1500 on a Gibson.
Pretty much everything! The appearance, the workmanship. The block Inlay work. The DeArmond name on the headstock i believe is in mother of pearl. I first tried it plugged into a Marshall tube amp cranked up with plenty of distortion......this guitar screams and has guts. This guitar looks well built, its heavy but not too heavy.This guitar should not come as close to its Gibson $1500 counterpart as it does in my opinion. Definitely a keeper!!
For less than $400 there is nothing to dislike about this guitar.
Constuction is solid, put together very well.Its heavy like a Les Paul but comfortable easy to hold and very playable. The neck feels great!! The fish is also very nice, the pick-ups and the bridge give it a great look. Again, this guitar is a great buy for less than $400
I picked up this guitar thinking it was a cheap rip-off of a Gibson. 5 minutes later i owned it. Its built well, sounds great and looks fantastic. Mine is an m75t lefty w/brown sunburst finish. If you try one you will be surprised at the quality of this guitar. If you just want a Gibson,spend the money. If you want to get pretty damn close and save a grand or more check out the DeArmond. If they made a car I'd buy it!!
