Members colin617 Posted April 2, 2009 Members Share Posted April 2, 2009 I have intense GAS for a Black Penguin. Too bad nowhere near me carries them, so I would like to get some info before I road trip to try one. How do they sound?How do they play? (Like a strat, les paul, you get the idea) Pictures are more than welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Like a strat, les paul, you get the idea)Pictures are more than welcome! I've played a White Penguin... And it played just about the same as my Duo Jet. It's just dressed for the party a little more extravagantly. The neck isn't chunky, and it's bloody light. Maybe the Penguins are a little heavier.. But not by much. Mine is light with a Bigsby on it. I could just imagine how much lighter it would be with it off. While not as bulky as a Les Paul.. Kinda the same deal 'feel' wise. The DynaSonics are one of my favorite pickups. They have such a unique sound.. A sound of their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarcapo Posted April 2, 2009 Members Share Posted April 2, 2009 Dynasonics over Filtertrons in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Elias Graves Posted April 2, 2009 Members Share Posted April 2, 2009 One of my all time favorites in the looks department. Never had my hands on one, though. Buy it and give us a review. EG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
