Bridge Type Tune-o-matic.
Two Seymour Duncan P-90, swich three positions.
Volume and tone per pickup.

This is an extension of the TC-90, somehow disguised as a Les Paul Telecaster, beautiful and well finished, except that the buttons are pretty filthy knob, but I will return below.

UTILIZATION

The guitar is a feather, well balanced, easy to use little we have used the Les Paul type or Tele'72 configuration. The handle is glued junction is carved so as to allow access one can easier to acute.
Having large catches, I replaced the buttons knobs of cylindrical buttons Gibson, which give a better grip and are more aesthetic (for my taste) than the original.

SOUNDS

Configuration requires, the sound is more of a Les Paul as a Tele'52, we can calmly consider most registries.
The magic of P90 allows this guitar to go velvety sounds clear up assassins crunch, allowing calmly consider playing the palette ranging from blues to hard / punk bleeding through pop and rock ( least for the heavy duty metal with huge distortions, where large EMG will be more appropriate than P90).
Of course, purists will cry Fender heresy, but do not listen to these grumpy, play!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years, I was looking for a nice little base and P90 in this price range model, the offer is not huge, the Godin LG has gone and Gibson must be done with models "faded", whose ugliness varnish is matched their fragility.
I had thought to take the black model, but greenish reflections in the light that I have finally decided the model in red.
If it again, yes, without hesitation, even though at this price, and given the type of construction, a hard case or at least a padded cover was not luxury.
Before that, I had two Telecaster which I separated a Classic 50's I exchanged, then American Deluxe, this one is good.
