«  Les Paul Black Beauty 1991 »

Published on 07/01/12 at 14:21
Manufactured and assembled by hand in the USA. this is a Les Paul with two Humbrucker 57 (neck and bridge). I added the Bigsby thereafter.

UTILIZATION

The neck is super nice. We can equip it with a string of good diameter (I use a set of 11-52) to maintain good bass.
The Bigsby is a real plus. Beware the lady is heavy! In short it is a Les Paul

SOUNDS

Of course it matches the style of music: jazz, country, rock, blues but never déparaillé in other styles ... very versatile after all.
I play with a lamp Laney Lionheart amp and effects pedals Carl Martin from home (see my profile) but also with RATT

OVERALL OPINION

Bought secondhand in 2005 ... I had already played on several other Les Paul (I do not like playing on a strat) and many other types of guitars, but none suited me like this one. and then I dreamed since I was little.
Have the same guitar that John Forgety of Creedence!
Particularities "negative" of Les Paul is the weight and fragility of the headstock made in one piece without bonding: beware of falling.
Particularities "positive" is that the body is mahogany wood Pleni (hence the weight), it is designed much like a violin, and what a lot of sustain naturally.
