This guitar sounds amazingly good - on the bridge P / up, it is bright and clear, but add a little gain and the P-90s really growl! On the neck p / up, with your refusal a little, you can get a blues sound crmeuse. The pickups are perfectly suited to contrl in shade making it a versatile guitar. In addition, the sustain is amazingly good. Other strengths are: Has the nut sitting and shot almost perfectly, the neck is straight as an arrow, the articulation of the neck is spot-on, the itineraries in the collection agency is clean and groomed and enters the body, stern and rear of the neck is thunder. Add this with the weight of the Colorama - only 6 kg - and you have a comfortable but impressive guitar for not much money.
