Published on 05/13/07 at 05:42
Made in the United States between 1976 and 1978.
22 frets, two pickups, one double and one single "tilted" so stratocaster.
A volume control and a tone control but only a slider type 335 BB King to move from one micro to another. Thin enough that setting, if only one developed a few visual and auditory memory, can be interesting sounds when paired with a multi-effects and an amp.
The handle is screwed.
UTILIZATION
The neck is thin enough for Gibson, what I particularly appreciate. The general shape of the guitar (Les Paul shape) promotes access to hassle-free treble. He lets himself be easily walk and allows a fast game and nervous or some smoothness in the tactile approach.
This guitar is fine body, pretty light and well balanced. Not tiring.
Manufacturing seems very strong test of time.
SOUNDS
This guitar may be oriented more towards the blues-rock, blues and rock but I have to try to resolve it with some joy, to obtain a more clear sound deep jazz. I think it is much more versatile than a Les Paul. A form of syncretism between big sound interesting musical Les Paul and Stratocaster and Telecaster attacks shiny Fender.
It lacks the small grain "phase out", no doubt.
I use it all sounds very large for saturated the Green Day sound as deep (overdrive and clean sounds) type U2, Pink Floyd and Chris Isaak.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for ten years. Initially, I was looking for a Les Paul (even dream of). Family budget choices and opportunity led me to this guitar is very underestimated in my opinion, may be devalued because of the field exit Gibsonian Orthodox, and cruelly ignored. I've played before on a stratocaster that I regret and which I also remake the acquisition. But this is unparalleled, rich, still promises, never disappointing.
The quality / price was excellent for me, and I would do this choice without hesitation.
