Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Having worked in the Memphis factory, I was well aware of the quality of instrument I was purchasing. This is just a truly awesome instrument. Every demo uses the same tired blues tone via slight overdrive. Nothing faithfully showed me the range of this guitar. Way more bite in the neck and more warmth in the bridge. This is my new favorite in a pack of thoroughbreds, and in my opinion, it is equal to or dare I say better than a lot of historic custom shops that I’ve played. I was scared I would regret this purchase but now I can’t see how I’ve gone this long without it.

Musical Background:

15 years at various low levels of playing. Main pack is a 58 vos historic les Paul, and a 1965 Fender Jazzmaster

Musical Style:

Rock and f’n roll
