Great buying experience.
As for the guitar…
With the vintage feel of the EN15 or an early run GB7C, this guitar has the bone split bridge, the matte style “natural” clear coat, and wide feel neck highlighting a tight but full bodied warm to low end leaning overall tone without getting washed or too boomy. I’m also a fan of the streamlined vintage pickup layout and as such, hum and electronic interference is next to non-existent (beyond basic, unavoidable line hum that comes with running a cable into a board or audio interface).
Love this guitar and when my upcoming cymbal order needs filling I will be hitting up Studio Gears for sure!
