Channel 60's type
In short, a real Les Paul Standard Gibson without the top of the handle

UTILIZATION

The handle is terrible! The action is very close to the frets! No curled found. Access to acute extreme but not good I never use it: D
The shape is really respected in relation to the Gibson Epiphone unlike (which are really not the weight ...) and the guitar is not so heavy as that. When sitting, it is not the top compared to my SG!
Gets easily your sound good?

Devine: D

SOUNDS

The sound is clear that both disto! I can judge this thanks to the receiver of the store, much better than mine or his way out (Marshall MG15DFX do not buy ever) but the bottom of a 75 watt transistor RANDALL jettait ca! But it must be admitted: the sound is very good, but not as good as a Gibson. But it is easy to fix: paste him two seymour Duncan 59 '! And get the Gibson's small: D And is not messing the sound is still a very nasty cause.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this guitar yesterday. What I like most about it is its impeccable violin, its handle confusing ... While I like her!
Before buying it I tried the following models: Gibson Les Paul Standard, Gibson Les Paul Studio, Gibson SG Standard, Gibson SG Special, PRS Santana SE PRS Tremonti SE, Classic Lag Roxane and many more ...
The Tokai buries the Gibson Les Paul Studio, Lag Roxane Standard, PRS Santana SE PRS Tremonti SE.

The Gibson Les Paul Standard is the same with better microphones, and SG have the same character so I can not compare.

I consider the unbeatable value for money ... In addition ca can invest in new pickups!

If I would do the same choice? What a question!
