Sound
:

Rich ,dark, beefy sound; like a 70's Les Paul but darker almost jazzy, sound great in these bright echoey venues, great for rock and blues , will also smooth out those bright solun ding rigs.Quiet and toneful.
Action, Fit, & Finish
:
No Opinion
Great quality however like many vintage European guitars the action was too low, finally located hardware supplier to replace the bridge saddle screws with longer ones to raise the action just a bit and now it is a great playing guitar, also dipped pickups in bees wax to eliminate squils when playing with more gain, It's a great guitar now and it saves my tone in these bright sounding venues.
