Description:
Electric. Made in USA. Bought new in 1978. This guitar has two of the loudest, most dynamic humbucking pickups ever made.
Tone:
Comments:
Very full tone with the ability to get amazing highs as well as ungodly lows. Sustains better than any guitar I've played. Great for heavy metal, rock and even blues. Stanley Jordan does some great jazz on an identical piece as well.
Quality:
Comments:
Solid book matched Koa body in natural finish. The neck is all alluminum with a rosewood finger board and thick meaty frets. This guitar was hand built in very quantities. Has the fit and finish of the best quality guitars such as PRS.
Overall:
Pros:
Great sound, impeccible finish, amazing sustain, terrific vibe, low maintenance because the neck never needs an adjustment, Great feeling neck with some of the best action you'll find.
Cons:
The only thing that keeps me from giving this guitar an overall rating of ten is its weight. Too heavy for most guitarists tastes.
