« Legend ... For wat it ... Dary, Legendary »
Published on 04/23/11 at 10:14I bought this guitar for Christmas, and I really love it, I would have liked a good model for Gibson Les Paul type the Randy Rhoads but good budget is not the same.
This topic does not exist for this guitar and as I am very satisfied with my shovel, I am proud to have created this section and to file the first notice =)!
Then start at the beginning:
-Mahogany body and flamed maple table with rosewood fingerboard
Channel stuck with ergonomic junction typical of Michael Kelly
-22 Medium jumbo frets with pitch: 24-3/4 "
-Tune-O-Matic and traversing rope to sustain impressive
Groover-Mechanical Oil bath
-2 Humbucker Michael Kelly PAF-Plus for high versatility splitables
-2 Setting tone and two volume settings with a 3-position selector and "Tapped coil (split) on the tone controls.
UTILIZATION
On the beast, I finish in Blood Red, which is less gloomy than in photos.
-The handle is nice, fairly round, typical of Les Paul and still pretty fast and with 22 boxes, for a solo, that's not bad! Regarding access to acute, I am an avid protector of the Les Paul and stop to say that access to acute on a Les Paul is almost insurmountable, sure, it's not a Stratocaster, a Flying V, Explorer etc. ... However, it is the shape and style of this guitar is what makes his personality, that was fun to play it and do not forget our idols such as Ace Frehley, Slash, Randy Rhoads, Billy Gibbons and Jimmy Page who had no difficulty making the final call boxes in their Les Paul! While access to Acute = typical Les Paul okay but there's more! In addition, the junction ergonomic Michael K. make access easier to the last boxes.
-The weight, since this guitar a bit more electronic than the usual guitars in its price category, there are cavities due to the cables that make light compared to an Epiphone, one would think that some of these cavities there sustain a loss, well, not traversing through the ropes!
- Form is a Les Paul between the Washburn Idol and the Gibson Les Paul, with small improvements that make this guitar better than some Epiphone invoice in the same price range!
SOUNDS
Regarding the sound, for my part I find the sound of the pickups okay but nothing more, with a Vox amp with lamp pre-amp, you'll have a good sound, however, for those who have tasted the Gretsch, Duesenberg, Lag with seymour Duncan and others, well, these pickups are a bit average distortion.
So here's the harsh rating that is required:
In distortion:
Hard Rock: 5 / 10
Hard Fm: 8 / 10
In Crunch:
Blues: 5 / 10
In Clean: With or without the use of split
Blues, Rock or other clean: 9 / 10.
For this guitar, a little investment required, there are only micro that fish a little while, think seymour or Gibson, why not a pair of 57 Classic eh? Or Alnico II pro in S. Duncan Slash! Finally, thankfully there's Split to clean.
Me I use this guitar with a Line 6, a vox AD15VT and effects pedal Zoom G2.
OVERALL OPINION
Good, good, good, time of the verdict, well, look, it's a beautiful guitar with a personality much better than the Epiphone I've ever tested.
For an idea of this guitar and my standards, I have 7 years of guitar, I love Lag Roxanne, the Duesenberg and Starplayer Fender Stratocaster!
I think she is great although the pickups are the weak point knowing that I love hard rock 70's and 80's, hard FM 80 and the blues! So in summary, a good guitar to continue after a few years.
What prevented me from joining Gibson or Duesenberg is my budget at the time although I do not regret my choice so my friends, Keep on Rockin '!
