Made in America. 22 frets, I changed the pickups to install the Gibson EMG85 and EMG89 to handle.
Replaced by a bridge Schaller LP tremolo Vibrato, specially designed for the Les Paul not working violin, you just need to replace one with another, and it works pretty well, even if it's not a Floyd Rose, we can ask him a lot.
2 volumes, 2 tones, a selector 3 positions (in classic Gibson) .. and a push-pull to split the EMG89 S / H. ...
Handle big enough to standart beaucou LesPaul in D. Changed when sanding paint for a version in D / V smoothly.
Body and mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, for table top maple veneer on mahogany body. while a mahogany SG ..
UTILIZATION
I stripped the paint of the handle to the fluidity and speed, replacing the crappy cel painting of a Gibson luthier balm oiled, much more enjoyable ..
The guitar is rustic at the base, some finishing touches, such as filing of freight on the edge was not necessary (I like the comfort of my other high-level guitars, like my one and my Les Paul Luke CustomShop). Thus altered, the handle is very nice. Being thinner than a LP Standard, access to the hoof of the handle, in the treble, is facilitated. The weight is more pleasant than a LP Standard, lighter.
For sound, allied to EMG85 mahogany body gives is a very nice result, close to a Luke model II. But still, it remains a small scratch to a notch below, in terms of wood chosen. The value for money due and is excellent, even with the changes and cost of accessories ...
SOUNDS
In Rock, blues, hard, heavy, it responds well ... Marshall on the body and ENGL 3, Lamps, and hybrid, in different versions .. (8 stacks available in various versions), Boss GT5, or GT3 ...
Distortion, clean, with or without effects Chorus, Delay, etc. .. everything goes.
It provides property and made good illusion, compared to other Les Paul ..
In addition to providing sound, it is handy, light and strong thanks to the chemistry between EMG85 and mahogany body ..
OVERALL OPINION
2 years at home, she cashed the changes without flinching, and woke up with a great potential and surly cool ... A pretty successful ...
But that said, in its basic version, with micro Gibson, to love ... In my improved version is a real random, .. compared to other good standart LP, a bit like talking to a small Alpine Renault face a Porche 911S beaten in the Alpine Rally for years.
And Les Paul, I had a lot in the hands, excellent, very good, less good, and not good at all ... lol!
If I had the choice again? Without hesitation, yes, of course, I would do ... besides, I wonder if I'm not going to offer another and do the same perso ... Deck
