UTILIZATION

I wanted to offer me a Gibson SG Special but by trying it is the drama handle suits me absolutely not. So I am back on a Fender with sleeves my leave good memories. Trying is even better than a standard Tele for my taste, the handle seems a little thinner and flatter is the key which is perfect for my small hands. action set has a hurry by the seller before my eyes is very correct. A real highway. Ergonomics level access to the treble is much better than a standard Tele but is more difficult than on a SG (bend on the G string at fret 19 requires a little practice). it's a featherweight for Tele after 3 hours of concert I have quite a shoulder. I play with a long strap and I is not no problem to handle plunging. sitting for the game can be a chamfer to the forearm would have been a plus. Finally on the use it is very simple only 2 tone knob (push / pull) and volume three position selector.

SOUNDS

I play mostly rock 70-80 years it is top for that!
Vacuum already sounds serious. It vibrates a lot and it asks to be connected.
All-tube amp while at noon and a fat overdrive, micro acute and knobs are scraped thoroughly and there it is we begin to Billy Gibbons. the pickups are fantastic.
with my all-tube amp at home (Bugera 5W) it sounds right away without struggling with the settings. On stage I play with a line6 pod hd connect directly to the mixer and it sounds pretty (unlike with my old guitars). it's very easy to get the type ZZ TOP with a big overdrive or AC / DC guy with a marshall who crunch. Once the micro splitter adpanne well for the police, for example, but it will never be the top to funk versatility has limits. I like simplicity and I'm delighted not need to play with the knob it sounds like I love everything thoroughly.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for 3 me and I love it. It there's any problem finishing the binding on my own body drooling a bit at the attachment of the strap and a little problem I have 2 frets with defects, tiny entaillse (when you bend has the 3rd or 12th cargo rope hangs a little) has the force to make bend around the cargo 12 is back to normal but by regarding the freight 3 we will have to see a luthier. Despite this violin looks superb quality. the seller has set me in a hurry for me 15min changed the strings to a 10-52, a big blow for the handle key etc ... I use three hours later for a concert and there is nothing to move during a concert or even later. The tuning holds very well.
The guitar is superb throughout with this red polish that leaves appear below table
The value for money is ok not great for my taste, 700 euros the tip anyway there are better finished guitars that certainly sounds can be worse. I will bring it to a luthier to make me a very fine tuning I'm sure we can further improve the game.
In short I recommend this guitar to everyone who wants to play ZZ TOP without Gibson

Origin: Korea
Pickups: 2 Seymour Duncan
Channel: "C"

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, access to treble is a little less but it is generally satisfactory
The body was cut in the back, so that the guitar will hold well on itself; in weight, it is decent (compared to a conventional TV, it is more comfortable to the grip)
Its side, the two Seymour gives a good distortion and clean sound is not bad. In fact, it sounds a little more acute than a Gibson, which gives a more contemporary style.

SOUNDS

To play the blues-rock that is really extra scratch. It is taken quickly to Keith Richards of the microphone with a little serious saturates.
Basically, every song the Stones, Led Zeppelin, blues and improvisation go great.
I play with a Marshall MG 100 DFX, and sometimes a distortion of + Dunlop: perfect result.
The bluesy sounds obtained very easily if you do not put the key in the bottom.
Finally, all configurations are excellent!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years now, and I am very pleased, in fact, I wanted a telecaster with his Gibson and I found it!
Mahogany body with flamed maple the table makes it great. The thing I dislike a bit is that we see too much separation between the different pieces of wood (and it's a little "DIY")
Level quality / price ratio, there's nothing to say.
I find it a very versatile guitar, and did not much character. However, I do not think I made a blunder by buying the contrary, it allows me to get some all I want in sound and is auusi comfortable home in groups, in rhythm than in solo

Made in Korea
22 Frtes
No vibrato
Two knobs: one volume, one for the Tone; possibility to switch from single to double coil. 3 pickups selector positions.
Two Seymour Duncan humbucker (a strong point of the guitar, these pickups sound really good)

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs enjoyable to play, although it is quite difficult to accder acute, but its still a matter of habit. It is an amazement to lgre Telecaster (I test a telecaster classic purchase, and that it had seemed much less serious)
It is relatively easy to get a good sound, but always the same, it is a matter of habit.
I put 9 because it is not always easy to play in the treble.

SOUNDS

I must say I t bluff by the versatility of this fender, which can compete with the guitars of the same brand amricaines. I play both jazz, rock, but also hard and mtal, and this guitar is suitable for all types of music
I use a Marshall 100DFX, and I use BOSS pedals for distortion, the Wah Wah ...
J'obtient very easy crystal clear sound in single coil in neck position, and a trs big sound with a good distortion in humbucking.
I put 10 without hsiter.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been about 6 months since I played on this guitar, and I am fully satisfied. When buying, I test a lot of guitar (including Les Paul, SG, Start ...) and I finally decided that the TRS for its looks "vintage" and for that excellent 'it gives. I would do without this choice hsiter.
Excellent quality price.

UTILIZATION

This skyscraper is the most enjoyable run there may be. Lgrement thinner than the US Tele, with a heel ergonomic pany.
The body is also thinner than 5mm to sculpt fawn fawn derrire Les Paul and Stratocaster, Telecaster fawn or simply GT, making the guitar trslgre and comfortable. Everything is well screwed on this wonder, the stack o hair properly.
The action is low trs, frets smooth, the bridge is of a size appropriate and enjoyable for a contact, the knobs are just at hand ...
J'enlve slecteur point for giving an impression of fragility, although no signal for 2 years, and the Tone knob for that lack of Resistors in its handling may be surprising.
But again it is done for.

SOUNDS

So l!! bleuf frankly given the price. It trsrsonant, thank you for mahogany and strings traversing. Full, round, brilliant but balance. It feels dj before connecting, and APRS ...
Exceptionally, this sound and well gnreux Defines, Bleusy well rock! full of harmonics and medium. RULES Although it is extra, the microphones do not lose a beat, a sound in all directions and behaves well even with many dgueulasses Satus of hell. But it is with a good overdrive that gives the best of the Fender humbucker. It's hot, happiness.
In split is "so nice", a nice chorus and it's full of feelings and expressions. The Tone fit for purpose with finesse.
Submitted least a Standard Tele, but just as effective with the grain of double and more. 10/10 for sure.

OVERALL OPINION

This Tele was jubilant. For those who enjoy a pleasant change, it will fill all the DSIR in her dress "Vintage" so sensual.
I regret that Fender does offer more in the transparent black finish with hints of violet lgrement. I found it more personality. snif
Well what can I say? Telecaster Gibsonian a colored, extremely talented and versatile, the report qualitprix impressive ... a beautiful instrument.
