Bitozar « A Gibson correct for not too expensive »
Published on 06/13/12 at 05:34Les Paul type guitar, bought in London.
2 double micro coils, the tone + volume knobs and switches that go well with with (3 positions).
The lifts are not top, it lacks fluidity in the settings. The holding of the rest acoord correct.
UTILIZATION
The handle is big enough. It feels good in the hands hands that's not the best for Schreder. Good thing it's not my goal.
Access to Acute is correct, no worries. on the other hand, like all the models of this kind, it is heavy. I usually play sitting down, so no worries. But standing, it is not comfortable in the long run.
Buttons and switches can find a lot of sounds but I think the race tone is not very precise. Basically, we go to the original song sound smothered in a very short time (1/5 of the race of the knob). The rest of the race I am not useful because the sound becomes too dull.
SOUNDS
I play blues, rock, pop and metal, mostly on modeling amp (Vox AD60 and Fender Mustang / GDEC)
It is ideally suited to most genres but does not allow me sounds crystalline or aggressive as my Strat. It lacks some versatility to my style. The two scoops are all very complementary.
If one considers that its area is rock and hot sounds, it makes the job very well. The bridge pickup is very good distos rhythm and solo. It gets a bit messy if you push too much grain. In clean sounds, although he attacks while retaining heat.
The neck pickup is very good sounds. I do not like to sound distos, the results imprecise. It also can be a personal preference: with all the guitars I play, I almost never use the distortion in the neck pickup.
His favorite subject is the British rock 60-90 years.
OVERALL OPINION
For less than € 1000, I was able to offer a Gibson. So, admittedly, the lifts are not top, the neck pickup is average ... But all is very consistent and allowed me to have the sounds that were missing from my Strat.
A good guitar, a bit expensive, but I like it.
