  • I am a fan of Godin, but this guitar is not doing it for me!

  • is this comparable to an old ES-350 ? like Page plays on the reunion show on In My Time Of Dying..

  • I own this guitar but this isn't the best sound you can achieve. First of all in an acoustic amp it sounds nice, but you better use a nice clean electric one. The neck pickup is creamy and the reason you buy this guitar in my opinion. using both PU is nice for chords or achieving a much brighter sound to use with effects. The original setting with d'addario's jazz light strings is nice but too acoustic, with full round jazz strings this guitar stands alone

  • Nice vid, but The electric example was missing the pickup selectors? Did you even think of playing with each Pup? and why not???

  • thanks so what you're saying It is feasible?  the reason is that I find acoustic phosphore bronze strings to be easier to play finger style.

  • @metalhaze1982 Acoustic strings are traditionally thicker and create a much louder sound. Either way, its still metal sending a signal through the magnets. I used to have an Ibanez AF75 hollowbody I strung with acoustic strings for the reasons I stated above.

  • gr8 video. I had a question though, can you string a kingpin with acoustic strings and still get signal from the pickups?

  • Jazz Guitar? Sure , but Lou is playing exactly what I want to hear from a P90-equipped guitar, especially such a light one. Let's face it - if you had a piano in the corner of the room and Beethoven played it, it would be classical, Ray Charles-blues, Elton John -well you get the idea. It would have been nice to hear the difference in the pickups though. Great playing!

  • Jimmy Paige?

    or

    Jimmy PAGE (Led Zep)

    Pet peeve of mine since my last name is Page also and folks like that add that "i" for some reason  ;) lol!

  • you get a like just for playing the wind cries mary :)
