manufacturing States. type handle 50 '. Mahogany body with maple room table finishing a "lizard skin". It's not everyone's taste but j'apprcie touch and original cot. Finish a complete yourself, I added the outline and the micro cache trussrod. no. Otherwise, the abscence of varnish "Louis XIV" brings him a cot that j'apprcie roots. But still, the cache trussrod ...
Stopbar, tune-o-matic, grover, the classic.
electronics is unusual in LP: the selector instead of a tone and a killswitch in place of the selector. Mine is rewired in standart.
Two microphones: one in BB3 bridge and a P-90 in the sleeve.

UTILIZATION

Channel lumberjack, I prfr a 60 'but you get it! Same for the abscence of the key landmarks. you get used quickly to points on the cot of the handle.
Access to acute Lespaulien is, if you know what I mean. The weight is present. lighter than my Cort M400 but much more than my PRS. Good strap must, but not death!
the sound is good right now, whatever the rglages, ca send!

Cot lctronique, mine is rewired in standart, the sudden I recupre a micro tone, and ca is important.

SOUNDS

On the bridge, its a rather modern accommodates many disto. crunch has ac / dc, heavy distortion or light metal, ... is its domain. a little loud and we thank the tone a little to rein in the treble.
p-90 is round and chaud.divain the clear and very good in a blues record, but will stop at the gain, if not, it gets rough.
Between the two micro is the big gap but it allows to consider all the config settings and all kind of music
The combination of two microphones (+ the opportunity to play on the flight tone) offers a bit of roundness to the bridge or a bit of clarity to the neck pickup, ca dpend how we see!

In short, the fat, heavy, gibson, but changes of the Lord 490. I could compare it with a studio, p90 is doing rather well.

I play on a laney lamp and I love playing on volumes for a clear sound on the stick and send heavy on the bridge just by playing the selector: fadetoblackaddict:

OVERALL OPINION

I for 1 year. I dreamed of an LP and n'tant not a fan of the studio and not having the budget for a standart, I had to find a compromise. She should look at both of the sounds. Quality price ratio very good (mine has no default finish).
I recommend it to someone who only plays on a guitar as she can do anything.
If you play country music, there are the tls, + if you are very heavy metal, look LTD, but for everything else you can think of the BFG. (Must still apprcier gibson sound)
I'm sorry it just is not in standart cable home and a handle 60 '...
