I've since December 2009. Purchased on the net without knowing what to expect. At the same time, a gibson for under 500 €, I told myself that I was not really a risk.
Same config as outlined below. There were only 2 models manufactured between 1994 and 1998. Mine is 1994. It is really unusual for a Gibson.
As it happens frequently, she fell and her head has been repaired. Fortunately, the remedy seems solid (if not very aesthetic).
The mechanics have been changed for Trimlock which help keep out the agreement, even using the tremolo.
At the same time, the former owner has made pickled. It is therefore natural color (and love!). there was still the right USPS inside the box. I do not even know if this guitar was sold new in France. I had never seen ... and it is one thing that pleased me the most, precisely.
As explained below, it was an economical guitar, so spartan. It provides the minimum or almost. Still, I like the approach.
UTILIZATION
Accustomed to the pickaxe handle my baja tele rounder and stick my C77, it made me a little funny at first but we made it fast. It is thinner, flatter on the back.
She is not heavy (3.5 Kg), the set neck and dual cuttaway make last frets easily accessible, even if I do not visit often the last boxes in my sleeves.
Very enjoyable to play, comfortable. Short simple but well done.
The knobs are very progressive and can easily play with the volume while playing (what I am doing more with me ...) Same thing for a dial tone.
Almost perfect, better than my tele or my LP C77.
SOUNDS
So there ... it was a huge slap. It sounds as loud as my P90 and covers an astonishing range of sounds. The velvety on the stick to his "typed" according to the stratabound setting position center, a well-edged bridge (a bit less than my tv though)
How to say, of great power with a simple microphone unexpected even if it is less "fat" than P90 anyway.
It makes a nice little versatility that we not wait for humbucker sound, of course.
OVERALL OPINION
A "coup de coeur", telling me that I'll always sell at about the price I bought has taken the risk. It's simple, it's my favorite now and I'm not ready to part with it.
It is not expensive in opportunity for little known and with a specification that is expected not a Gibson, which led to its commercial failure. But given what we have nine between 500 € and 600 € today, you can go there with my eyes closed.
Certainly one of the best case that we can make guitar OCCAZ brand.
10/10 just for the Quality / Price / Benefits.
