Members Chordite Posted March 3, 2015 Members Share Posted March 3, 2015 Nice warm looking piece of wood, zero fret too, which I am partial to. First thing I would have to do is strip the headstock and polish out the dull aura around the tuners.(it's a bit of a fetish thing with me) I imagine it being quite SG like to play but you never know 'till it's in your hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Guitar Domination Posted March 4, 2015 Members Share Posted March 4, 2015 I learnt many years back on an Encore guitar. It had a great action and was well setup. I was telling one of my students last night how this made learning the basic techniques such as fretting without applying too much pressure so much easier. They are pretty underated guitars. If I was in the States I may consider this. Looks pretty cool too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Apple Slim Posted March 5, 2015 Members Share Posted March 5, 2015 L6s were great guitars. How were the electronics on the Encores? Did they use the Varitone? How close did they get to the Bill Lawrence designed pickups and circuit in the L6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members badpenguin Posted March 5, 2015 Author Members Share Posted March 5, 2015 Hey Pine,No the Encore never went there in terms of the electronics. 3 way, and V V T I assume. MOST of the jap copies didn't even try. Matsomku with the Aria version used a 3 way rotary, and the only one who did copy the Gibson wiring, was Ibanez. 6 Way switch, with the mid control.
