It's an old rve, a Firebird, mine I purchase 'is a MODEL amricain trs trs beautiful, which never leaves anyone indifferent , although sometimes people m'aient said seeing her, "Oh, the beautiful Explorer". These are two small hills that are humbucking top, which makes it less versatile type and a Les Paul, for example. Flip-O-Matic Tuno traditional and electronic and available knobs identical to the SG and other Les Paul. The handle now: It is special because one pice of his head to the end of the body, making it quite heavy and the guitar dsquilibre (See Ergonomics). Trs is enjoyable to play, but if you want a notice of "pro", ask Gregzen a member here is a trs good guitarist with whom I played for 15 years and who knows all my guitars.

UTILIZATION

As I said, the handle is enjoyable to play, getting started is easy, it is not large and trs suits me perfectly. It twirls, and we end up at 22 box without realizing it. The remarkable point of this guitar is its usability: As I said above, it is made from one pice and dsquilibre the guitar: When you play up and we lche the strap, the bte falls down in a clockwise direction (viewed from the front). And yes, do you realize, the ct round is heavier than the body ct!. However, the design of the body enables the forearm scratches arise with comfort and molleux rtable and effortlessly balance.

On my Valvestate 8040 is lightweight lightweight by pramp against a 'lights on the same amp sounds better dja. I found the sound I needed by connecting a twin via a pramp Lag Spitfire, and adcoiffe! The micro needle is ... AIG no doubt, even strident, the sibilants are easy to obtain, the bass is warmer, "fltquot, a Les Paul. In its clear this is a pure micro Fortunately, arpges are fluid and dtach.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this scratch since 2000 I think I love it all. It is a beautiful object in addition to being a fucking scratch, the handle and the head gives a long strange impression when playing standing to be very small, like when John Entwistle played with his low fMeasure (Peace's me). Sure, it's boring story of dsquilibre when stoops to rgler his pedals or even just a rglage amp, one has to keep constantly lest the head of stick beat up on the floor. Overall it gives me great satisfaction, the sound, the fact of playing with a little instrument rpandu, gnral in the mouth. No doubt I have no regrets, and if I find a Firebird White Cream with 3 microphones ...
