"Steve Howe ES-175--YUM!"

Feature:
Basic humbuckers and volume/tone. Grover tuners.

Quality:
I think everything is fine.

Value:
It is expensive. I think it is worth it.

Desirability:
This is the coolest looking guitar I've ever owned. Very cool. Lot's of mojo.

Sound:
This is where this guitar shines. This guitar is capable of a wide variety of sounds--cool jazz to rockabilly. One problem: feedback. Be careful. I'm getting some Doug's Plugs for the f-holes. Furthermore, mate this guitar with a tube amp.

About This Product!
Description
The Steve Howe Signature ES-175 celebrates the achievements of the man who elevated rock guitar into an art form. As a member of the English band Yes, Steve's tasteful, eclectic guitar parts helped define a new style of music. On later solo albums, he emerged as an accomplished jazz player. His guitar collection has been the subject of a book, and his instruments have been exhibited in museums. Through it all, his favorite has always been his 1964 Gibson ES-175, and his signature guitar is modeled after his personal guitar.
