babadelh « The Paul the ultimate »
Published on 07/12/14 at 07:42This beautiful Les Paul output directly plants at Gibson Usa is improved Les Paul Recording output in the 70 reissue. It is manufactured in the United States for only 500 or 600 copies I think.
The handle is a slip type 60 'mahogany 22 frets. The mahogany body and maple table AA certified. Rather classic yet and this is where it gets interesting:
- The pickups are novelty at Gibson, they are splitable single or double coil.
- 4 knobs, 2 tone and 2 volumes
- There are also 4 buttons, 2 for each micro splite (single / double), one for the neck pickup out of phase and the latter is a kind of potion supposed to remove the buzz that I understand.
- The bridge is a Bigsby B-7 just beautiful.
- 2 outputs high impedance to plug into a normal amp and a low impedance to plug into a mixer.
UTILIZATION
This guitar is really nice to play. It is comfortable and a relatively good access to acute is available. I think this guitar is really versatile.
If one takes the trouble to look over it is terrible. Until now I have done what I wanted to achieve without limits.
His only major flaw for me is weight remains almost 5kg. That after a few hours of rehearsal or concert can really be felt.
SOUNDS
I used this guitar for my entire directory humble in me multiple projects composition. musical styles in which I mainly tried sound: rock, blues, bossa, generative improvisation and to a lesser extent some jazz.
I used it on many amps, ranging from orange th30, a Bugera tube, a roland Microcube home or even on a mixer ... The conclusion remains the same, this is an exceptional guitar !
Neck pickup can get beautiful sounds very round, warm wishes while in phase shifting our microphones can get a nasal sound. There are many possibilities you just have to spend time to understand the trick!
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for several months now and I think using it for many years to come.
I had other Les Paul before and I must say that it exceeds very far.
For me its strong points are:
- Its unique look.
- Its versatility.
- Its exceptional playability.
And weaknesses are:
- Its weight (5kg).
- The distribution Gibson makes this very difficult to achieve in Europe guitar.
The guitar costs about € 2,400 is very expensive but they are largely justified when you see the product. Then finally I would do without hesitation that choice, this guitar is for me the ultimate Paul!
