«  A beautiful Studio »

Published on 12/14/10 at 13:50
Made in the USA, it has the same characteristics as any Les Paul Studio. We find in particular a build quality and unbeatable setting and two microphones HB Gibson Burstbucker Pro hell (the same as the FA standard).
Worn Faded models (mine is Brown) really class. Instead of the usual thick layer of varnish on the Studio (sold more expensive), these models have a matte varnish stain that hints of the wood ribs. It is a version anti bling, sober, falsely Zen gifted early blues-rock.

UTILIZATION

Like I said, it's a Les Paul, so heavy, not really super comfortable, with a difficult access to acute ... Get used to the beast, the back muscles and all ... c'qu'on wants to know, huh!
The guitar also requires a little adjustment period for those who are not accustomed to both HB. But finding a good sound with the pickups of this guitar is not rocket science!

SOUNDS

Is why we bought his first Les Paul to sound, to play rock and blues like our idols of the seventies ... and there is really great!
Both pickups are very differentiated, one pitched, nasal, the other serious rounder (I love).
Attention, the amp type plays a lot. If you really want to hear this gem, the best in my opinion it is a all-tube amp with a nice clean sound (I have a personal Blackheart Little Giant).
The sound is very full, very clean, very safe.

OVERALL OPINION

I use daily for two months. I tried several models before I decide, particularly models Epiphone Les Paul Standard, Gretsch Electromatic Pro Jet, Hagstrom Super Swede and PRS SE. They do not happen to him in the ankle. For 600 €, one enters the world of musical instruments "for life". It is a few hundred dollars more than the models that I tried but ... Life is short, and it's not so expensive ...
The value for money is extraordinary. I do it again this election, of course.
