«  ten times better than a standard fender usa »

Published on 11/12/10 at 02:11
I'll just say that rpter notice prcdent ... I bought mine 1800 euros on a guitar site vinttage. It belonged Jean-Jacques Goldman according to the site where I purchased. It is true that I have a picture of an item or it plays exactly the same guitar, same color etc ... When you know that there are only 10 copies in France, c is therefore very likely.

BACKGROUND: California Guitar labore in bueau of Rich Lasner tude.
Assemble in the custom shop Yamaha in Japan. Guitar adopted by many guitarist in the 90s: JJ Goldman, Henderson, Eric Johnson etc ...

Features:

- Solid Maple Guitar sche several dozen anne (ct my fender sounds like a piece of plastic!)
- Acoustillage plated gold, but that tends to tarnish
- Pickups Di Marzio conus specially for this model, they are gravs SE 812 behind, made fun.
- Maple handle any beauty with Rio rosewood fingerboard.

I changed the original floyd rose because it was gold and I found a little too conspicuous. I put a black instead I rgl order played with the palm above, moreover I served rare ...

For the quality of finish, I can not see what we could blame this guitar ... This is the largest class! It was worth 14,800 francs in 96!

USE

The handle is doing whatever people playing blues to Mtal. We quickly glides up boxes desti- nations most recently, it is so easy to play that when I take my fender behind, I can not be too comfortable. Beware the fender neck is super nice too but it is a step below in terms of comfort. With the system "super playability" access to the desti- nations most recently boxes is a breeze.

do you get a good sound easy: even more ...

SONORITS

The vacuum sonority is beautiful, it's a good sign.
Taken up by the microphones we get a sound very full and deep slamming or as rglages. It is warmer than the standard least pinched strat closer to a series L (60s). has typically rings Mark Knofler.
The dual adds versatility and can play solos with call of Chalaur and presence. This is not something like a nag Emg 81, one can have normment shade. Split single one obtains the slamming of a Stratocaster.

Note that the microphones do not tend "purr like Fender pickups" they are completely silent, making studio is REALLY more.

Jazz, funk, blues, rock, hard rock, no limit this guitar except extreme death metal genre style Mtal or better to take an ESP with a cooler sound.

NOTICE GLOBAL

If the 812 is really a pro guitar Fawn of Shur or Tom Anderson. I do not regret the price paid for it is really impressive, more I tell myself that it was Goldman's fingers on her and saw Bercy full crack.
I just sold my standard fender to buy a Fender 62 'new old stock 3000 euros. The sound is very comparable with the yamaha perhaps less precision. So I end up with two guitars almost having the same sound. So I will definitely sell the Yamaha to buy a Gibson story to have a big inning difficult to tone my fingers ... Finally I still hesitates because I remember having sold a Tom Anderson I still regret I am afraid that the same thing happens to me but on the other ct I'm not a millionaire!
