The RR Gadow Custom F i bought was the first off the line and definitly pulled out all the stops. Book-matched flamed maple top, one-piece quilted mapel back, with mahogany sides, flamed mapel neck and a south east asian rosewood fretboard. The thing that struck me about this guitar from the second I played it and even now is the combination of a thicker top and it's Lindy Fralin pickups and coiltaps. The sustain is incredable and compared to a Paul Reed Smith hollowbody, the custom F gives you more punch, tone and it reacts to distortion like no other guitar I have ever played. I also used this guitar for a jazz big band and it perfectly rounded out the rhythem section, and flew past the whole band durring solos. All in all this guitar makes the transitions between stlyles effortless and is a continuous joy to look at, hear and play.
