SOUNDS

All positions are now truly usable! it's rare enough to highlight!

Despite the use of 3 double coils, the record is also clear in his superb, not to mention the push / pull the volume pot in shade that brings real richness in this type of sound. Outstanding.

Saturation, then the tears! I have not found better!
They are extremely good balance between all positions and each has its usefulness and mood! a true expression with a grain poustouflant!

OVERALL OPINION

I use Yamaha AES-FG since 2002.
I tried a lot of guitars before choosing this one (PRS Custom, Gibson Les Paul Standard, Vigier Excalibur, Luke, ...). It was still missing something ... the clean sound, the sound saturates the handle, only the Yamaha ... I now truly seduced! Ds that I had in hand, the silent "Thunderbolt"!

I still have not found a quiver today.
Currently, I play more with a Suhr Pro Series S3 and a Tom Anderson Hollow Drop Top Classic. Their main advantage of being more than the Yamaha lgre (-600g) and sounds better in the clear. Despite everything, this Yamaha is very versatile and has a "whore" of grain on the saturation, I'm not on these two different models.
