« A Modern Masterpiece!! »

Publié le 22/07/11 à 21:38
contenu en anglais (contenu en anglais)
Usa Made, 2002 Black Non-Tremolo, Singlecut body shape with carved maple top, mahogany back and neck, rosewood fretboard, 25” scale length with 10” fretboard radius, optional bird inlays, Wide Fat neck carve, PRS #7 Treble and Bass pickups, two volume and two tone controls with 3-way toggle on upper bout.

UTILIZATION

They call it the modern Les Paul, and with a reason.
From down to earth blues, to modern drop tuning Heavy Rock, this guitar can handle a lot of genres.

The frets are easy accesible, and the neck is really comfortable, you can see and feel that this guitar was done by precise and great craftmanship, it screams “quality” from the first time you play it!

The stock pickups are great, more on the vintage side, I’m planning to replace them with the Bareknuckle pickups, the Aftermath on the Bridge and the Cold Sweat on the Neck (I've already tried different BK PU in my Gibson SG, and I know that their quality is top notch).

I found that the Volume and Tone controls are really responsive and more controlled than my Gibson SG Standard.

SOUNDS

I play different genres, mainly on the heavy side of Alternative/Progressive Rock.
Bands that I like and I’m inspired by are Alter Bridge, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Massive Attack, Meshuggah and Alice in Chains.
I have buyed this guitar used, in great conditions and for a great price, from a store in U.S., because these guitar here in Europe are really expensive.

I've used it in a store, and at reaharsals with a Peavey 5150 with an Harley Benton 2x12 cab, and in a store with a Diezel Einstein (which I'm planning to buy soon) and a Mesa 2x12 cab.

In both the circumstances the sounds are great, even with the stock pickups I was able to have amazing results in a few minutes.

From Jazzy like clean tones, to high gain distortions, this guitar let me hear myself perfectly in the mix (I play in 2 different bands, both with another guitarist).

OVERALL OPINION

For the price I payed this guitar, I cannot be more happy. I've also tried modern Gibson Guitars, but at that price for me they were impossible to buy. I knew that the Paul Reed Smith guitars were at the same, if not higher, standards of the Gibson ones.

If you play modern genres, my opinion is to update the pickups to the Bareknuckle, and you will have a guitar that will last you a lifetime.
