Everything has already been said, but we will start:
Body and mahogany / nitro lacquer
Rosewood key
22 frets
2 Gibson humbuckers (490R / 498T)
2 volume / 2 tone (a couple micro)
3-position toggle switch
Made in USA
Difficult to give a note about this kind of topic for a guitar. We will put 10 because if you want a guitar to meet the spec: everything is
UTILIZATION
Handle this well, we feel good, but still very fun to play. Access to treble is excellent. The knobs are too close to each other, so that it can play a little tricky if you are not used and that has shaped fingers socks (this is not my case).
Bcp complain Mecha Gibson tulip, for my part I do not have to complain about my guitar that has been 10 years (I can bcp chance but I do not have either on my pbs Another Gibson ...)
Nitro lacquer very comfortable, it provides good vibration of the guitar that makes the q'on feels good.
The guitar is just even in very low tuning (I play in A). Even a PRS custom 22 I owned had more trouble with this kind of tuning (it's still a great guitar still a PRS).
Always such a gibson to set the jumpers: it's effective. The same for the adjustment of the handle. The pickups? is simple: two screws each for height adjustment and a screw rope and microwave for finer adjustments. In short, we can adjust as we REALLY want.
No definitely not much to say about it. I'll put 9 knobs even if me they fit me just fine.
SOUNDS
Personally I think this guitar can suit any type of music, but good if you prefer to play funky casseroles nothing will ever replace a strat.
I play, blues rock, hard, metal, metal very large and sometimes looking for jazzy sounds. Everything goes without needing to do this concession! Never found such a versatile guitar. After fau love the character of this guitar because it is very (VERY VERY) present. The sound is generally quite bold but against very accurate. Well complex or sensitive agreements, which sometimes come evil big distortion, are super articulated: all notes agree. Arpeggios distortion out very well.
In clean sound is very rich with a very large dynamic range (it's not good either single coil huh!). We're doing great things in clean with this guitar, it sounds not dry for a penny but it's not as long as it is boiled. No, no sound is still beautifully balanced (as long as its microphones is adjusted as desired)
The rest is very subjective (hence my 10) but I've played and owned a lot of guitars (jackson USA and Japan, USA PRS, Fender USA and Mexico, Ibanez Japan Korea Philippine Whale Kore, BC Rich China / NJ, Kore Epiphone, ESP Japan, Kore LTD, Schecter, ...) And frankly many were great guitars, but I can not help with this guitar (a very recent purchase) I finally found exactly what I was looking for.
Contrary to what one might think cete grate rather recommended for rock / hard is super comfortable in the clean and crunch, and tears all about extreme distos (I sometimes play stuff like Nevermore, Cannibal Corpse, etc ...)
After this purchase I will probably keep more than one, the Fender USA and Mexico, and probably buy me one for a more civilized tuning ^ ^
OVERALL OPINION
For me (but beware this is very subjective) this is the best guitar I've ever played.
More objectively:
This is a guitre comfortable everywhere except perhaps for the slamming funk well (but at the same time learn to be comfortable for funk and jazz for such I do not know if you can find it). The sound is clear and rich with a nice character.
€ 850 for a secondhand guitar in new condition and ten years of age. The qualité-performance/prix report is IMHO unbeatable I put 10 without hesitation.
