Hello!

As I mentioned earlier in this board, my neighbour bought a abonnement of the german magazin "Guitar" and i was the canvasser (?) of this abo. So i got a guitar as a gift :drool:

It came a few days ago and what could I say? It is great. It has a classical Les Paul shape in vintage sunburst, was fretted very well and has a nice typical LP sound even though it has a bolt on neck instead of a glued one.

The only (little) minus: The pickups are a very microphonic, so, if you play very loud and very high gain settings, they squeel. But playing clean or just a little bit overdriven it sounds very well.

Here you can see some pictures: J&D LS-1 VSB (http://picasaweb.google.de/vdlinde.christian/Gitarre?authkey=v-HQvGvqDqQ)

The guitar was delivered by www.musicstore.de. They sell this one for 139 Euro. A great gift, I think.

Congratulations, Chris! It looks like with a pickup swap, you'll have a fine LP copy. Good looking guitar.

I have one of their strats here somewhere.. Nice looking instruments but the pickups and electronics is definately a weak point, at least it the strat.

Yes, i thought about a pickup swap, but: They sound very good, except the high gain squeel! So this will simply not be my guitar for high gain. :) Two good humbuckers will be about 160 Euro. That put into a 140 € guitar... hm.....
