berdeforcal « a pleasant surprise »
Published on 11/14/11 at 04:17China, tune o matic bridge, set neck rosewood fingerboard, 22 frets, 2 humbucker alnico 5 pickups epiphone, 2 volumes, 2 tones, 1 3-position selector
UTILIZATION
The handle: handle also very cozy on the gibson firebird studio of a friend. This is not a beam, a problem of many Gibson. This is not the highway of my ESP is good.
ERGONOMICS: This is the problem of firebird. I exchanged against a Custom77 cs3 because the guitarist (very nice, with Audiofanzine exchange) did not did not. For me it's perfect, is an extension of my body. The spécificitées for those who want to buy a firebird are:
Compared to a TV or an LP, the left hand should go further, if you position yourself as a different scratch and you are an E minor, your fingers will meet and do sue the FA instead of if and mi. Then the right hand, when you scratch the strings, you may fall on the bridge tune o matic and not on space habtituel. Me when I took over, I saw more of the look when it was an extension of my body. Question balance, I only play on a stool and I like my problem with lp dééquilibre to the lower body as soon as I let go of the handle there with the firebird is well balanced as my ESP Mirage. So if you like short sleeves and you tend to have the right hand flush to the bridge, you risuqez not to love! Well, I try to explain myself as best when I see the reviews is to make me a review
Weight: it is lightweight compared to a LP and slightly heavier than a scratch alder.
Access to acute: good, however, this guitar is destined to the rhythm in my opinion because the sound is very bright compared to an lp with the same micro neck. As for the solos, I prefer my lp studio 1991 ebony fingerboard and 24 frets my ESP mirage. Mics, and if you have taste then find relatively rotten (this is normal considering the price of the guitar) and I advise you to upgrade the gibson or seymour, I'll set up a gibson 490R and a seymour sh4 . I often read that the level of Micor is proportional to the level of guitarist, and I am shocked because I regularly meet super good playing with stews and are very happy (as long as there is writing on the Gibson or other sleeve), because when you upgrade a scratch average it often does as much as a high-end is not something that that is an exception, the stews over € 800 is also rather the norm, but the most part of guys are no leaves, no big deal in itself. It's like when you put a discount whiskey in a bottle of chivas chivas and that you put in the bottle of crap, experience and let people help themselves. The scratch is the same, so if you have taste, even if you are a beginner, you will need to change the pickups if you do not want that power, that's fine. If you have multiple digital effects you'll find the perfect microphone, if you as the electro harmonix or mxr, you weep, so conclusion: very good scratch if you upgrade the pickups
Mechanics is the surprise, you will not need to change! And a scraper that price is exceptional!
SOUNDS
Yes it suits my style of music but I have several guitars, as it does not paris Dakkar with bmw 738, and pulls hard with a pickup in town! The scratch is the same!
The sounds are from a Les Paul and a TV in my opinion but it is subjective!
I play with a Blackstar HT5 3 body (10 hp are rotten, I intend to buy the 2X12 with celestion vintage 30), a cathedral elctro harmonix deluxe memory + boy + metal muff, like I said everything will be better when I changed the pickups
OVERALL OPINION
I've had two days but I've played 4 to 5 hours
I traded because I liked the look and I'm not disappointed
For the price range nothing to repprocher, the violin is beautiful, it's a good surprise, the comments are mechanical properties.
I do not like the pickups but you can not blame him, I knew before you have on hand.
Report of the super exchange, I do it again this choice and I think in the future acquire an epiphone firebird mini humbucker that j'upgraderai with seymour
