Members ArKay Posted May 30, 2009 Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 Fell in love with the design and had to get it, my first German guitar. It's a very nice and solid instrument capable of warm & fat sounds. In the first position you have the P90-style humbucker, in 2nd it is coupled with a coil of the bridge humbucker and in the 3rd it's the bridge pickup by itself. This guitar is pretty heavy, but veeeeery resonant.

Members guitarcats Posted May 30, 2009 Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 thats super sexy, i like the double bound body...what is the price on these? HNGD!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted May 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 Thanks! That depends on where you live. They are a lot cheaper here in Europe than in the US (for a change). I got it for 1,025EUR shipped ($1,450). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ArKay Posted May 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 Thanks guys! Importing one from Europe is probably cheaper than buying locally. I would try one first though. The Fender scale might throw some people off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members newbuilder Posted May 30, 2009 Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 I am playing four guitars on a regular basis and the scales go from 24 to 25.5 and I love them all for different reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ArKay Posted May 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 Thanks! Once I have moved I will be able to take outside pics, the ones I currently take always involve adjusting the lighting in Photoshop to get the colors reasonably close.

Members datru Posted May 30, 2009 Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 Absolutely beautiful. What are the little round things on the bottom of the pickups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted May 30, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 Absolutely beautiful. What are the little round things on the bottom of the pickups? It lets you adjust the angle of the pickup, notice the additional screw at the bottom of the pickup rings. Goelsdorf comes up with pretty cool ideas every now and then.
