Epiphone Riviera Sparkling Burgundy Semi-Acoustic Guitar
Product no: 9000-0066-7700 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The Riviera returns! This legendary semi-acoustic thinline originally built in the '60s by Epiphone offers familiar tone and feel with the addition of a few welcome upgrades. For a broad range of focused double-coil sounds, this modern iteration on the classic Riviera comes with two PRO Mini Humbuckers and the usual electronics lay-out including real CTS potentiometers. In addition, the comfortable C-profile neck is now accompanied by a GraphTech NubBone string nut, which together with the stability of the LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge takes care of solid tuning and intonation. It goes without saying that style-accurate features such as vintage machine heads, a scratchplate boasting the famous E-logo and the Frequensator tailpiece are once again part of the build of this electric Epiphone ES made for blues, indie-rock, fusion and much more.

B stock gekocht. Niks op aan te merken! De kleur is prachtig! Enkel stemmen en hup,… verder perfect! Klinkt heerlijk,… Epiphone levert de jaren heel goeie kwaliteit voor een mooie prijs!

Voor een mooie prijs een b-stock gekocht.
Prachtige kleur en ook prachtige afgewerkt maar kurkdroog lijkt wel birdseye fretboard.
Tijdens inspelen met Gibson snaren (!?) begint alles te trillen en rammelen eerste indruk is dan ook terug ermee maar nee.

Nieuwe Ernie Mighty Slinky snaren erop en fretboard diep geolied met Fender CS olie.
Hals wat relief gegeven. De boel geïntoneerd. Pickups op juiste hoogte gezet. Prachtige Pro mini humbuckers overigens.

Ineens komt de prachtige compositie van hout metaal en elektronica tot leven…
Fantastische gitaar voor jaren te komen. Geef haar de aandacht die ze verdient en ze geeft het terug!

Cheers.

Fijne gitaar, van rock tot jazz.
Mooie sustain en warme klank, meer gevarieerd dan je standaard bij een semi-hollow body zou verwachten. Technisch prima gitaar (volume, toon, stemmechaniek, etc).
Ligt prima in de hand, hals & body worden één met de speler.
Ook visueel een plezier. Bij minder licht wordt de kleur diep wijnrood, bij wat meer licht wat feller - een fijne schakering.
Enig minpuntje: de gitaar komt niet perfect afgesteld. Een beetje prutswerk nodig om de hals recht te zetten, de actie van de brug wat te verlagen en de fijnstelling van enkele snaren te regelen. Maar dat is niet onoverkomelijk.
Heel blij met deze nieuwe aanwinst - hij leverde me op een tweetal weken al dagelijks speelplezier.

Gretsch Introduces the Vintage Select and Player Editions

Friday 29 January 2016

Gretsch fans can roughly be divided into two groups. On the one hand you have the purists who think the specifications from the 1950s and 1960s - the Gretsch heydays - are beyond dispute. On the other hand, you have the more practically minded guitarists who like to make modifications to their instruments. Luckily, both camps are being catered to with Gretsch's new series: the Vintage Select Editions and the Players Editions. Go for a modern classic like the G6118T-SGR or travel back in time to 1962 with the Gretsch G6119T-62GE!
