brac « Good little "reissue" of the original model »
Published on 03/08/11 at 08:30see features on other reviews which are also very close to mine but cool micro switch to change the basic pots vintage mechanical hold well so I will change not
UTILIZATION
the handle is very roots and that's what I like. thick and round (not in C and D or "parenthesis rather flat like that =)) and the key is also very round (radius or curvature radius short enough so important). all this is that it fits comfortably in your hand without adopt "strong." It's definitely not stick up down to 30000 notes per second but I know not play like that then I do not care and comfort is top for me (thumb on top rather as barred with the index if you see what I mean) and lots of my friends grateux elsewhere. That says a great big stick can help sustain more important when you shake well. The weight of this channel but not good , need to exercise to beef up the back ... The access to treble is "normal" but you can do with (go and see the boss springsteen which reproduces video the song "She's the One" with solo funny)
SOUNDS
Then the sound: it's true that good microphones origin are somewhat arbitrary, so I quickly changed for texas special and it's nicer, less aggressive in keeping the color of the Telecaster, which I wanted. I did not change the mechanisms that are not bad but not perfect, nor the knobs and it should not delay. It must be said that nowadays, the guitars of this price (550 € it is 3600 bales) manufacturers are all subject to problems of "capitalism" basic: not too expensive but not too perfect. So the violin is not too bad (it's not 40 years of wood drying either, in those ranges it's still kind of autoclave garden (a little while baking and drying for 1 month if it was By the time ...). cons they catch on pretty crappy electronics in general. I saw it on 2 other free "low end" that I purchased: the Flying V reissue epiphone guitar 67 = from 360 € rigolotte but I changed the pickups to seymour duncan 2 and knobs are still changing and it sounds better already. Ditto ibanez AFS75T (half body with bigsby) for the moment but I have not changed any electronics is to discard (without micro "body" knobs for the deco ...) In conclusion I have neither the means nor the desire to buy guitars over 700 € so I take these small models ( for the look and sound especially) but I always end up changing the pickups and knobs and cables (see cables shit when you open the plates, I would not in my house is so cheap. anyway we will ever have the quality of a vintage these prices
OVERALL OPINION
Another thing: the paint and that's where we can have fun. I had white blond because I already form a sunburst Stratocaster (the 2 colors proposed for these Mexican classic. And I wanted wood color I appeal to the varnish ... it's not vintage at all these varnishes : from the wood was first a layer of silicone or Teflon but I know it's been almost 1 mm thick and it should not make the sound. Then the final nail color, very fine. So while I napped. Here's how for those who do not like these varnishes (note the neck has a lacquer "classic" that I have not touched). So I started everything off the plate pickups, bridge, knobs of the plate. I have not touched the handle (so much for the layer remaining between the handle and the table). I started back with a hairdryer and a small chisel (take a spatula or thin), not to cut, just to take off. Heat gently about 10 cm and then with a chisel without attacking the wood, raise the silicone coating of shit that comes off easily if broadband was well heated whole area. As soon as it resists, you must warm up. and that's LOTS more beautiful now. reassembling the bridge and setting the top rope has since turned almost 1 mm. and after the final walk on the forums violin, I applied to cloth or wax Carnoba Karnoba I know. It Boooo. Well it sure is scratching at the 550, the microphones 115 and knobs made it to 20-30 € 695 € but it makes a good tv come I love them notice a bit long but I am glad to find reviews when I then sought must be given a bit too. I've been playing for 35 years, I have a takamine folk a seagull machine performance (very good guitar at 650 €, an Epiphone Flying V 1967 reissue for the basic look, ibanez semi bigsby fund, an imitation Start the 1993 Tour a box that has disappeared (and valley blues Van Zandt with microphone (it's expensive and it's great ...) and amp Marshall JCM 800 Lead Series, koch amp studiotone 20 W (the ball) photos soon on my profile thank you to the other notice me always help
