Members GreatDane Posted March 22, 2013 Members Share Posted March 22, 2013 Soloway Swan Swan Contour - swamp ash body, maple neck, 27" scale of course, pau ferro fingerboard, sea snail markers. Chambered, no hole, and has rounded edges and an arm contour, like on a Strat; very comfortable. The pickups are a pair of TV Jones TV'Trons - standard humbucker size repros of Gretsch Filtertrons. This is an exceptional guitar. Remarkably even sounding all over the neck and every position rings like a bell. Chords speak clear and full, even with distortion, and the TV'Trons are capable of some great chime and twang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kayd_mon Posted March 22, 2013 Members Share Posted March 22, 2013 27" scale? Is that a baritone? Because if it isn't, that sounds like it might be a bit stiff-feeling with all that tension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members photon9 Posted March 22, 2013 Members Share Posted March 22, 2013 Aside from the baritone scale it's a gorgeous guitar. The body shape is just beautiful, perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nuke_diver Posted March 22, 2013 Members Share Posted March 22, 2013 Jim Soloway used to be a regular here on HCEG but I haven't seen him in ages. His guitars are beautiful and as I recall he was a pretty decent jazz guitarist to boot. I'd love to have such a guitar but it would be wasted on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
