Comments: Great guitar! Fantastic tone. Craftsmanship is high.. being 30 years old and all original electronics are still 'clean', says it all. As expected, these guitars are heavy but balanced. Mine was built in late '77, newer versions with imron neck and wider horns had thinner bodies to compensate for weight. Shielding on the pickups is good as well, I get some squeeling but generally will receive nice feedback. I play it through a Rivera 100 watt tube head and a Marshall cab with vintage 30s. Normally I don't play with effects, but will occasionally play a Crowther Audio Hotcake or Fulltone Fat Boost
