Best value:
Excellent
Origin: USA
Year 2006
Chevelet tune-o-matic
2 volumes, 2 tones, a selector 3 positions
Micro Gibson 490 R + 498 T smoky coil
slim tapper neck profile, very end.
Channel 22 boxes, with ebony fingerboard. One key marker in the fifth box
UTILIZATION
The handle is very nice, I never really played a gibson before buying and I must say that I have not been blocked by the handle. Getting started is easy
Access to acute typical Les Paul, there's simple, but it does not bother me so much.
The weight of the guitar was a surprise. It is lighter than my Pacifica 612 V, it is also very balanced.
With regard to the sound, we can say that this guitar is made for big sound, very heavy. The pickups have a high output saturation and are a joy. The guitar great respect for the type of receiver on which it is connected.
For its clear, round and warm as you would expect for a gibson. But the microphones saturate quickly.
SOUNDS
It is well suited to my style of music. Rock, Hard Rock (AC / DC, Led Zeppelin, Metallica ... etc ...)
I play with a Marshall AVT 50
This guitar is still rather large typed her, tease it a little jazz if you want but it is not made for!
OVERALL OPINION
It has been almost a year and a half that I have.
This is my first "good" guitar. I am happy even though I bought on a whim.
What I particularly like is the weight "pen" for Lespaul, I also like the sustain and ebony fingerboard, very nice.
I had never taken the time to try another model.
For around 900 €, it is a good value for money. Delivered in its rigid Pouche this gibson U.S. "first prize" has everything a large.
With experience I will take the time to compare with other models of the brand. It can be typed too much for some!
