History:
Purchase: Garage sale $20.00, bought 'cuz it looked good
What I Like About This Hondo Les Paul Copy: Nice color (black with binding) humbuckers sound Great in another guitar (plopped them into an Ibanez RX)
What I Do NOT Like About The Hondo Les Paul Copy: tuning? I've heard it was possible on some guitars, but not on this one. Strange considering the action looked pretty good on it, but if you go anywhere past the 4th fret, you're f@#$%d.
Hondo Les Paul Copy Quality Rating: I'm wondering what the standards for quality are, and if the quality control peeps went home early that day... the truss rod RATTLES IN ITS CAVITY!!!!!
Review Summary: I got this from a garage sale.. I thought it was a good deal at the time, and the only good thing about it is the pickups, and I ripped those out to put in a squealy Ibanez, they sound great in there, so it's not *all* bad :)
Also, I ripped off the little plastic knobs and put them on my Gibson XPL Flying V, those worked well, too! (check out my review on it!)
Um, avoid this if you're looking for something to play, but if you need bits for another guitar or two... this might work out.
