General

Fazley's FES318 is a thinline, archtop semi-acoustic guitar that's perfect for playing styles including classic rock, blues, soul or jazz. This attractively-priced model has a lightweight basswood body with a maple neck and a poplar fretboard that give it a well-balanced acoustic sound with accentuated mids and trebles, while two humbuckers ensure a robust amplified sound that can be tweaked to taste using a dedicated set of volume and tone controls and 3-way switch, opening up a mass of tonal variation. This Fazley Vintage series model comes finished with gold-plated hardware for a deluxe look.

Une guitare attachante malgré des défauts (capacité sur une tonalité montée a l'envers, donc pas de son sur un micro...)
Changé micros, tuneomatic,et sillet tête.
Manche et corps imposant, on aime ou on déteste, bon son et bon sustain.

Mooie gitaartje, zeker voor de prijs.
Zeker een aanrader voor een beginnende speler.
Voor een ervaren speler zou ik hem niet aanraden.
Net een wat goedkopere sound.

Voici mon avis



J'ai demandé un bon de retour pour cette guitare qui est une véritable catastrophe.

Le cordier m'est resté entre les mains car un boulon n'était pas correctement visé, J'ai réparé cela.

Les mécaniques tournaient pratiquement dans le vide. Je les ai resserrées. Mais il restait une frise sur le mi grave que je n'ai pas pu éliminer.

J'ai donc décidé d'abandonner et de vous renvoyer la guitare mais avant de le faire, j'ai appelé Bax Shop France pour signaler qu'un des boutons de potard s'était cassé entre mes mains quand j'ai voulu en mettre un autre ET LÀ, je suis tombé sur quelqu'un m'a dit qu'on me retiendra une bonne partie du prix d'achat

POUR UN BOUTON A MÊME PAS 1 EURO!!!

J'ai longuement discuté pour expliquer à quel point il était scandaleux d'envoyer un article aussi défectueux et de ne pas tenir compte des efforts faits pour l'améliorer.

Il m'a été répondu que j'avais affaire à un non musicien qui n'y connait rien dans la construction et le fonctionnement d'un instrument de musique et qui m'a tenu un langage de fonctionnaire buté.

Pour finir lorsque j'ai dit que l'enseigne pouvait désormais m'oublier, il m'a répondu que le concernant c'était déjà fait!!!

Si c'est bien la dernière réponse que je peux attendre considérez que vous avez perdu un client et sachez que je ne reviens jamais en arrière.

Ik wilde als beginnend akoestisch gitarist graag een ander 'soort' gitaar uitproberen. Ik wilde geen compleet elektrische, dus ik koos voor deze betaalbare semi-akoestische gitaar. De gitaar oogt naar mijn mening lux, hij speelde prima, ik heb hem wel teruggestuurd. Mede omdat de hoge e-snaar vrijwel meteen knapte, maar ook omdat het geluid niet naar wens was.
Over het algemeen een prima gitaar, vooral voor die prijs, maar voor mij was het niet wat ik zocht. De snaren voelden ook wat 'slap' aan. Als je beginnend gitarist bent is het prima, maar ik zou hem toch eerder voor de sier gebruiken.

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!
