sound features I'm not familiar with the differences in body materials, but I immediately noticed that it sounded a bit interesting (body shape may have something to do with it). I'm not familiar with the differences in body materials, but I immediately noticed something interesting (I'm sure it has something to do with the body shape). (Added on July 25, 2019) I'm using a lot of gain due to the 59/JB, and I'm cutting a lot on the amp side because of the lows, while pulling the volume pots on each PU will coil-tap them, so I'm trying to get a half-tone out of them. On the other hand, when I pull the volume pots of each PU, I can get a halftone... It's a versatile machine that can compete with RG!

Second electric, purchased November '12.
All strings are in stock condition except for two stickers. Currently uses Roto Yellows.
The strap pin on the neck side was broken once and had to be repaired; in retrospect, if the pin had been moved to the back of the neck joint or something, the head might not have fallen off all over the place. ......
The jack nut is rattling and the soldering is not good, so the PU is not making any sound, so it's practically hidden.

(Added on July 25, 2019)
I'm going to revive it soon. the jack was rattled because it was cheap and the PU sound was lost because of the toggle switch. CTS push/pull, toggle switch is also CTS, and jack is Montreux.
