I went out today&#39;s Guitar cif Lausanne. Basically, the silent prvu I try more guitars, but the others will come next time. I wanted to take the instrument for you Submitted APRS have really been around.

Objective approach:

Les Paul guitar shape
Mahogany body
Table two pices of Saddle sculptbr /> Channel 60&#39;s style
Wood key: bne
Type of frets: unidentified
Nitrocellulose varnish multilayer
Slecteur 3 positions
2 potentiomtres rotary volume numrots
2 potentiomtres rotary Tone numrots
2 humbuckers which I do not know the type

Subjective approach:
Guitar flash away from dj trs. She is the one that caught my eye the most. The varnish is beautiful even if I notice a default on the edge of opening. On her sister (short on custom which was his right) is a default in the binding tape to me the eye (the raw wood is visible on some millimtres places. Forget that guitar is worth 6,000 Swiss potatoes. The price of a Tokyo travel round trip with a night in a hot club and champagne wealth ... a little light when se.

Note also that the handle "deep joint, long tenon," naturally absent on this guitar is an option rarely found on custom sold in Europe and which currency the price of gold. It is the only condition that would have really THE sound of Gibson&#39;s era.

7: The guitar is dmarque the rest of the pack by a varnish especially high quality and the use of a wooden button trs enjoyable. I regret the default finish, a wood body and the lack of standard split for a guitar of this price.

UTILIZATION

The density of mahogany is select as the guitar is neither too heavy nor too lgre. I agree however, the guitar promne in the top rankings in weight. But as I am happy owner of a Dean Flying V resorted to a fairly large weight, I am not only a. drang

The grip of the handle is enjoyable and the work of frets is excellent. No-matter how little frieze agree that we want to tackle. Be careful, this is not the stick "fretless wonder" whose reputable made the legends of Gibson. I note that the varnish on the back of the handle is enjoyable and glides well. I hlas not had the opportunity to sweat enough to realize the potential "live" of the instrument.

The lack of split is inexcusable because I wish to see what this pice of orfvre can spit in single coil sound. Too bad.

The other points are typical for a Les Paul. No chamfer, Access in acute questionable.

7: I can not make more for this guitar. It lacks some things to scrape Premire places.

SOUNDS

We come in really INTERESTED. A blank, I note a lightweight hollow in frquences low. I barely hear the sound effect of sixime rope. This should be a factor voluntary. The sound has a lot of roundness and sweetness. For cons, the sound does not have power, which, I must admit, surprised me. The definition for each note is excellent and it will play particulirement just to get the true potential of this Guitres. I therefore deprecated beginners. The sustain is good trs.

Once plugged into an amp in clean, the guitar is Drout. The sound is warm with the body. It is a rgal. In this register, this instrument excels and offers sound it is the only offer. We can even say more transparent. The clean is just bright and Irad littralement the pice. Absolute excellence.

In the bluesy crunch, the saccharine pop and vintage records, the guitar shows that it is "the benchmark for all". We realize it is the direct progeny of a family of instruments that we have all heard on an album or another. In this exercise, the guitar MRIT also noted for excellence.

By pushing the saturation, I do more. The sound is not nominally bad, but it lacks something that I am unable to dcrire into words. I would say that I get is too tight and not really adapted to this exercise.

8: A good shovel sound of references in a guitar, provided they are not asking the impossible for it or change its pickups.

OVERALL OPINION

DEFINITIONS In this Les Paul is a good instrument trs. These sounds are first provided plans to keep its spectrum of use. But why an original does not innovate by trying the "really modern ... grrr grrr that kills ..." with this beautiful. The violin is the potential in any case.

3: An instrument expensive, trs expensive for what it can offer. The Les Paul Custom draisonnable suffers from its price making it an expensive whim, almost unnecessary as the number of good guitars competing is important. But the rewards by Owner &#39;sounds and signature characters affirm IMMEDIATE recognizable.
In the opinion of Higher Gain: It would be nice to get off of stopping those who leave "real" reviews for this shovel. The price makes us no worse in the ass it frustrates us all is not There&#39;s that read. And no need to send mp r-pitiful, thanks!

Edit: note that Higher Gain sold that guitar. Suggesting he had a commercial intrt note that the lev is as possible. It includes any time. ^ ^
