See other opinion, nothing to add
UTILIZATION
I find it a bit heavy, but a nice look to the old
Very nice sound, very versatile
SOUNDS
Its low in fat, and quite clear in the treble. But it's not a Start of course
OVERALL OPINION
I bought mine in 1979 at age 13. I wanted a Start (a dream) and a guitar more 'jazz' to compensate. The Paul's had just come out and I've made the recommended.
But ultimately it is this that I found most pleasant to use (stratum 79 was finally a real heavy m. ... hyper, I sold it in 2003 with a torn old avid gratis ).
I am more touched this guitar for almost 20 years! In 2003 I tried to sell it on Ebay for 800 euros, not a single buyer, even at 600. I have been offered 400 for the worst so I kept it.
And since 2006, I returned to the guitar and I rediscovered this free with happiness.
The strongest is that it is a model 'Lost': it is not even listed on the site Gibson U.S.! so that when I put it on Ebay, I was told that this Grat ... existed!
I am not a connoisseur, but I'm emotionally attached, and I really think it is a well made guitar, as we did in those days, with a beautiful sound versatile.
Added: I just have it set in a store in Nivelles - the guy told me that she is at least 1000 euros and has potential buyers - or even 2000 if it is black! - Well, I do not know if it's true, but somehow I keep it. I find no gratis this quality is at a reasonable price anyway.
Come on, even a 'edit' to honor the Grat: Sunday to repeat it: the other guitarist in my group has bought the same amp as me (Marshall VS100), we were all on channel 2 OD1, same setting, Epihone him with a Les Paul but he changed the pickups (beautiful red, gold hardware), I with my shovel beast The whole Paul Gross. The vâââche! there is no photo, I keep my gibson for life!!
