<strong>Objective approach:</strong>
The guitar is of Japanese manufacture.
The back is cut in two pieces of mahogany glued standard (as on a standard Gibson).
The table is made of a plate carved maple standard on which, a flamed maple veneer was glued (yes there are different finish flamed or curly).
The hardware usually comes from the Japanese Gotoh.
The microphones used are Gotoh, if I&#39;m not mistaken, at the ear, they are mkII.
Rosewood fingerboard with jumbo frets
The handle is of type D
The original price in Japan is around 553 euros.

<strong>subjective approach</strong>
The guitar is well finished, the finish is polished. It&#39;s a good surprise. A look at the electronics allows me to say that this guitar is intended to be an entry / mid-range. The woodwork seems qualitatively good. However, I note a wood body still a bit chilly on both models tested. it can be seen in how the sound develops. You will have to use this guitar a few years before we can draw its full potential.

Only the bridge seems a bit light, people in search of his will opt perhaps for a Gibraltar or faber. Tunning done, then they will note a significant increase in sustain. The nut is also standard, we regret the bone nut absolutely beautiful premium series. The rest follows in other sections

[6] for this award, we have a lot of guitar

UTILIZATION

The handle D is nice. Slightly larger than a 60 round slim type of gibson. The handle is against, thinner so you can grab him in many ways. These features will appeal to shredders. Although the radius of the button seems rather aim for a consistent use.

The frets are well polished, no work of polishing make my way (I speak for the employee who bought it of course). To stay on the frets, I must admit they are a bit less comfortable than a Gibson LP standard, but it&#39;s still good. The opaque coating is not optimal for speed, but really that big n&#39;handicapera transpireurs. However, it has the advantage of very well protect the instrument.

The ergonomics are typical Gibson Les Paul, even if all criteria were excellent, I will not allow myself to him more than 8 at this level because access to acute and weight of the violin are conscéquent defects size.

The knobs have a good race, so we change guitars mid-range Korean who often have knobs like "open / closed".

2 volumes and 2 tones is the ultimate to define its sound. Too bad there&#39;s absolutely no split or other function of this kind.

The note to [7], very hard to note the guitar is meant higher than typically found in this segment, but as always, it&#39;s a Les Paul.

SOUNDS

The sound delivered by the <strong>microphones</strong> are very straight with a side sparkling glue them in the ass. The grain is generally tighter than others. It is the peculiarity of the Tokai pickups.

The clean sound is good. We like to play in different styles in this mode.

In full, the guitar shown good performance. Without reaching the level of a real gibson. The sound of power, which has a beautiful grain of the personality (the right and dynamic) and a beautiful setting. The wood sounds a bit cooler than what is found on the series of premium brand, this translates into a sound a little more packed seeking a little place in the treble. There is also the famous phenomenon of the 6th string that appears in a game very saturated. The guitar is developing a highly enjoyable, although a bit gruff, which pushes back the classics.

I still have to admit that the violin really saves everything. It gives a lovely roundness and depth (within the limits of what his wood allow it to reach, of course) to it which is gaining pleasure and overwrites the low-end Epiphone in this field, and that n is not a joke like "I put 10 because it is really a super scratch because it&#39;s mine." There is no doubt assert that provides performance tuning micro confusing.

[7] a funny guitar mid-range that surprises by its quality.

OVERALL OPINION

I&#39;ll play it frequently lately. I love this thing sounds interesting and I have great respect for the sale price very honest. I tried many guitars and this may be a reason why my rating is severe.

[6] A good guitar original, provides everything a power user can look for in a Les Paul.

EDIT: Be careful for the selling price in Europe, many sellers believe will make easy money by ordering in Japan and selling them with very high margins. Yes, it is the VAT-French, but it does not excuse everything. 1265 euros for this guitar is just too much. Never buy in over 1000 euros <span style="text-decoration: underline;">new.</span> (Editor&#39;s note&#39;m the owner of a ls195, I paid 1450 euros to the port and customs). Bumble now!

Manufacturing Japan

The LS-75 are the high end of Tokai Contents copy (not exactly authorized) Les Paul Standard.

Beautiful table Saddle pommel.

UTILIZATION

It PSE weight, she shears the forearm and the flop, like any self-respecting Les Paul.

The handle is enjoyable and it sounds empty, good sustain. The frets are better finished than the Gibson Les Paul type.

The pickups are PAF Vintage MK2 okay, I got too mushy, I've changed.

mcaniques the original lacked precision and also a change will bring more.

SOUNDS

I play rock and once the pickups changed, it is perfect. Beautiful clear, beautiful crunch (I play on Fender amp plutt)

OVERALL OPINION

850 bought in 2002
+: Qualitprix the report, and it is so beautiful ...
-: Microphones, mcaniques.

I wanted an LP that is both beautiful trs, ringing and I can customize seen in Gibson, c'tait passage through the Custom Shop box and I would end up with a guitar that I would dare barely touch as it would CHRE!

I thought to this and an Epiphone I immediately changed my mind trying the Love Rock Japan immediately bury the Epi. With a good set of micro, even better, you have to pay much for a comparable Gibson (at least 2000).

So if c'tait again, I would do it again, it's an excellent basis for violin.
