Hohner Professional L60

Korean manufacturing

Copy les paul junior special, I think he said.

Mahogany body (thinner than a Les Paul Standard reported because no table)
Mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard.
Average quality chrome tuners. I changed ds klusom and takes the best agreement.

Two P90 pickups
Two volumes and two tones
Three-position selector

UTILIZATION

The set neck is thinner than a Les Paul Standard, with a fairly flat radius.
It is, in my opinion, extremely comfortable.
I have this guitar for 15 years and never moved the handle. I just made an adjustment to normal year ago.
The action is very low, suggesting that the angle body / neck is good.

The ergonomics are very good standing. A little balance to the head while sitting.
Is thinner than a les paul standard, it is also much lighter.
She is comfortable with its weight and its handle.

SOUNDS

This guitar suits me very well for use in rock and blues.

The neck pickup has a nice sound, round, deep and clear with a nice dynamic.

The microphone is quite sharp incisive (for a les paul). The P90 has an interesting grain for nervous riffs and power chords.

OVERALL OPINION

I have 15 years old and well. Its thick coating is very durable, the hardware will not rust.

I tried several models in this price range. At the time there were still fewer choices and not all of his guitars in China.
Since I often played on fender Mexican (strato and TV), the WSL paul and recently on a gretsch). Well despite its rudimentary, small hohner not be ashamed. It has its own personality, different from the others and I always enjoy playing it.

I was not a fan of the classic les paul (big round and fat) but this one I immediately agreed. Its handle is very comfortable and sound pretty dry I liked.

In short I would say that it is a guitar that has a discreet charm: It has no prestigious brand listed above but sounds good.
There is no interest in selling it because its coast is low, well below its intrinsic qualities.

UTILIZATION

- Channel: I never compared with a real Gibson Les Paul, but stick by comparing it with that of my Washburn SB-80 is substantially identical. It's not slim, it is not too large, with my short little fingers it goes
- Access to acute: okay
- Ergonomics: Ergonomics for a Les Paul, that is rather to be used with a strap, or if you are sitting so long to play ...
- Sound: It sounds even with the original pickups

SOUNDS

- Style of music: the guitar complements my other guitars are a Fender Strato sound for two of them and double coil to the other
- Amps used: tube amps, and there it's body!
- Types of sounds: ca rest of the single coil Soapbar format but, I never had even as a micro format. I really like because it's warm without being aggressive
- Tones favorite: the knowledge that we have not a set of 3 pickups on Start as you do not get his off-stage, but the microphone as the microphone severe acute is completely perfect, either in combination or separate

OVERALL OPINION

- Use: bought on a whim, to the mouth and for the price
- The pros: finishing, equipment, wood, shape
- Les -: more product, lower side argus
- Value / Price: very good, compared with good versions of Epiphone I think (perhaps versions of Gibson but I do not get me any more), what the Chinese have made significant recent projects years for us to lay the guitars very cheap ...
- With experience, I will redeem no doubt this guitar because I also have a guitar that is more produced and whose brand is legendary .... but rare!
