We know that some feel the case as a blasphemy ... but Orville By Gibson is the Japanese subsidiary of amricaine firm, it is in every way a Gibson, made from petrol here of rosewood (very beautiful and dense, dark) rather than bne on US models.
A shares, no difference. Ha, IF! no need to leave 5000 as Gibson for a Les Paul with a long tenon, Orville By Gibson (and Orville that matter) possde of the series. Very nice realization.

USE

It's a Les Paul ... Worthy of the name. Difficult access to acute, big enough stick (though less than a Gibson US), relatively heavy guitar ... The charm of LP in short.

SONORITS

VERY EFFECTIVE. I do not see the interest to buy a Gibson US for three times cheaper we all, if it is the prestige of the reputation of the US models. Objectively, the sound is deep, fat, infinite sustain, microphones leave no doubt when the trademark guitar. PAFs that quipent Orville By Gibson sound good vintage, very hot. Note that the knobs are very progressive point very apprciable.

NOTICE GLOBAL

Unless you be addicted to US models and excitement around the brand, Orville By Gibson (I stress "By Gibson" simple "Orville" diffrent level of Electronic and varnish) entirely satisfy guitarists looking beautiful amricaines THE sound. After everything is history purist ...

I compar my Orville Gibson Gibson with US.
Compar a custom LP US 2002 (Model left of a friend, both right-handed, so I speak only of sound), the rendering is almost identical, the US seemed LP Cusom send a little less acute ;dropoff window but overall it sounds as well.
Compar an LP Studio (year ???): Nothing to see. Orville LP is well above; In any case the sound is deeper, less aggressive.
