«  SFG guitar: »

Published on 05/03/13 at 07:12
Made in France by luthier steve foucher.
the body of the guitar is a solid piece of wood (I could not tell you what wood was used) and the cut is just great: in addition to the mouth, the whole shape is ergonomically I've never found except on Parker fly mojo. it is 100% comfort.
It is a bit heavy but nothing nab scoliosis.
For configuration one has two humbucker DiMarzio (a fred in the neck, a x2n in the bridge), a volume knob and a knob for the tone. the selector has three positions Gibson guy. an original floyd rose.

UTILIZATION

The handle: it is fine, slap, and no one forces you appreciate the ease of play it offers.

Ergonomics is (for me) one of the huge benefits of this guitar. It is balanced and hugs the body. each curve is there to help the musician: a total success!
Access to acute is perfect and we're not bothered by a heel junction body / neck imposing the contrary is hallucinating the comfort provided by this form of the heel, which allows you to play over the last boxes without difficulty.

For sound: and yes the sound is good, very good even. two microphones, very different in their tones offer a very wide range that can cover any register. to handle the lens is clean and slamming wish, Trestle is war with the x2n which no lack of gain that will delight fans of big punchy distortion. harmonics out on their own and sustain ... is incredibly long (thank you bear up the system!) short jazz to death metal through the country: you can do everything and always with great sound quality. (Though for my part I use most in a metal register / death / prog)

Are they suitable for your style of music?
yes, this is totally happiness to all floors.

SOUNDS

I have 7 years and it is a dream come true because I had a crush on this little-known guitars luthier and I dreamed a few years before finding an opportunity! I use it daily and I'm still in love.

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I have several guitars and I've tried a lot (I'm seller repair guitar), this one is totally what I wanted and I find it far above many more expensive instruments. (we're in of handmade)

With experience, you do again this choice?

completely. I'll bite your fingers to miss considering the price that I got it. In addition, it belonged to a guitarist that I love (John Fontanille).

OVERALL OPINION

How would you rate the quality / price? this guitar is around 2000 euros for the maker, it is far from being exaggerated when there is production quality, originality of design, ergonomics and playability they offer. I got 500 euros used because it is a generous friend who sold it to me (thank you again).
If I wrote this opinion is mainly to know the luthier who had only one review aupour do know this maker which had only one review audiofanzine and deserves more recognition. some groups who have used or are using guitars SFG: NIHIL, ZOMBIE EATERS, Breakdust. see also the article by judge fred on guitars steve foucher: https://www.judge-fredd.fr/spip.php?article103
