When I first looked at this guitar I could see that this is not an average instrument, it isn’t “just another guitar”, I mean everything look so well done, the bodywork, the placement of everything, the finish, the craftmanship was present everywhere. And when I played it, man…I could agree with myself;
“Yep, this is definitely a high class axe.”
The original pickups together with the Mango body produce a tone unlike anything I’ve heard before, warm tone, with a beautiful brightness, and the tones are so clean, even when the gain and distortion are pushed to the limit all the tones are still there, just amazing, and the output is strong and solid, not ridicuosly way too much like some active pickups. It’s just…enough. Powerful. Balanced. And it is incredibly dynamic so it can purr or bite whenever you want it to.
I love with this guitar.
