Published on 02/26/12 at 08:44This is a model FRETLESS.
- A potentiometer for volume, one tone, a 6 position selector for different configurations of microphones.
- Pickups: 2 singles and a double in bridge Marceau ®
- Mahogany body, Maple Table Pommelé, crossing Maple Neck, Ebony Button
- Finish Oiled / Waxed
Cosmetically the guitar is beautiful (wood, finish etc. ...)
UTILIZATION
The guitar in general is very nice to the touch and playability
It is light enough, and its shape fits snugly to the body.
The access is excellent with acute neck-through.
SOUNDS
I play on an amp Fryette Memphis, and I tested it on several other amps.
6 combinations of microphones give a range of sounds really interesting. So it is possible to exploit the full Fretless ways and have tremendous sonorities possible with a single amp sound.
Given in C with the 13/56 it sounds superb, clear sound in saturated or even no effect. I only use a delay to give a little more sustain and depth to the sound sometimes.
OVERALL OPINION
The guitar is very well finished, contact with Tom Marceau for the design was very nice, I gave him confidence for different choices of woods and pickups compared to what I wanted.
This is not so obvious to realize a Fretless, there are a lot of constraints, and the guitar meets my expectations, I'm really happy with my choice.
