Leduc Clean

- In which country was it made?
In France, mine between 81 and 82

- How many frets, what kinds of microorganisms and their configuration?
22 frets, two humbucker Seymour Duncan Jazz Model

- What type of bridge (Floyd, Wilkinson ...)?
Fixed bridge (presumably in Brass) created by Leduc. Setting up the bridge, setting the tune each string, no height adjustment for each string.

- What are the settings (volume, tone, selector micro ...)?
Pots independent volume and tone for each of the two humbuckers. The volumes are in push-pull splitter for the humbucker. Three-position selector.

- What kind of stick?
Channel driver and ebony fingerboard. It brings tremendous sustain. It has plenty of body while remaining shut. I think it also affects the ease of access to acute.

UTILIZATION

- The handle is it nice?
It is the most comfortable I've ever found. It is extremely thin and fine. Not much room for the nut finger ready, but instead run your fingers without effort or fatigue. The hand slips fully. Over time the handle has a little work (no twist), but I felt nothing at the action after a good setting with good planning and shrinking. This is the drawback of a very thin neck ... there is no great matter, but between us is so comfortable!

- Access to acute (last string) Is it easy?
Access to the treble is very comfortable even at the top of the handle with a double cut very well.

- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
Personally I found it pretty ugly at first, but she is so comfortable and such a sound than I am not stopped. Over time I got used to the form that "looks like nothing", so is ... Leduc It's not the idea of ​​a strat is not in the idea of ​​a Les Paul, this is not a copy, but the creation of a luthier! It is very light and fits comfortably in hand.

- Do you get easily a good sound ...?
No, its a good little take years ... but with this guitar there, the default will not come from the guitar, for sure!

SOUNDS

- Are they suitable for your style of music?
Yes in that sense it is even shaped. This guitar has a real personality. It is like a member of a group. I influence, it influences me and we evolve together.
- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
Whether it's on my Fender Champ 25, on my VOX AC30 or what I had for a long time, a Peavey 5150 (yes yes it can be with the one where she sounded even better) is huge. Besides, I read lots of comments like what the 5150 did not clear his ... with Jackson active pickups certainly ... but with this guitar is that you want (except maybe the Hard Core Death Doom garage).

- What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "fat ",....)?
Even without the plug, it has its own sound. Once in an amp, the range is enormous. The micro acute split is clear, and slamming. In doubles we have a huge trunk. The neck pickup in split is great for crunch, and I have used the double neck pickup for solo heavy metal (although it's absolutely not why it is done ...) where a distortion high gain sound was creamy and defined. If we mix them with two microphones and a split humbucker in the other ... Finally, there are plenty of good opportunities and all are excellent.

- What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
The sound I prefer is when I stick my ear on the edge and I play. Once you know it is not wood crate, it was built with care and that the lady has stuff to say. I hate the sound is that of the latch when I check the range.

OVERALL OPINION

- For how long have you been using it?
I spent a guitar shop 12 years ago. My father was looking for an electric guitar so we can make cattle from time to time. He would not expensive because our beef was rare and that he thought his game was not worth a great investment. I saw this guitar, it was OCCAZ and I knew absolutely no Leduc. I tried it for him. The sound was a huge shock, and the comfort of the handle was something indescribable. She was 2.500FF (for the very young, 375 €). He found it too expensive for what it was going to do, and it sounded too good for him. We left. I returned two hours later with my mother to offer her. I did not even from this guitar! From there I told him dive for my rehearsals and my concerts. He played it very low as expected, however I ... After a year I was offered. Since it's MY guitar!

- What thing do you like most/least about it?
I love this guitar ...

- Did you try many other models before getting this one?
Yes, I tried tons of guitars. But this one, I did not buy because I wanted a guitar, I bought it because ... it was because it was me ... lol

- What is your opinion about the value for the price? / Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
I found it used. Apparently it was a moment she was in this store. As it is not a model of well-known brand, known shape ... etc. it has no rating. In contrast to the price paid, and even more, it's a great thing! Honestly, I do not know if I would sell if I would draw more than what I paid (well, even though ... anyway). However if I were the flying, or if I broke it, I'd be able to offer 20 times the price I got for the same. I think I would even Christophe Leduc and I'll ask him to build on the exact specifications that I have.
