Gibson [Guitar of the Month - August 2008] Shred VPublié le 08/02/10 à 13:32
Fabriquée aux USA, serie limitée guitar of the month
Chevalet kahler, tres souple d'utilisation mais pas de mecas bloquantes, dommage.
Manche en ebene, reperes noirs. Assez agreable et tres large
22 frettes, 2 EMG 85
1 volume, 1 tonalité, switch 2 positions.
Peinture epaisse on sent que ca tiendra longtemps.
Je ne suis pas un dingue de gibson mais le coté tout noir de la bete m'a super seduit.
8 car tres bien finie mais pas de mecaniques bloquantes pour le vibrato donc des qu'on dive ou autre, ca desaccorde.dommage.

UTILISATION

Manche assez rond, tres large et agreable.
C'est une V donc c'est mieux debout.Bien equilibrée mais jouable assis aussi. Faut juste faire attention :)
Le manche...…

Le manche glisse bien, le vernis n'accroche pas trop.
Les micro donnent bien meme si y'a ce coté froid des EMG et je leur prefererai a terme les duncan Blackouts, que je trouve bien plus chaud et vivants. Enfin bon c'est pas fait pour la musette, mais en son clair ; le micro manche est sympa, en disto, ca arrache et ca le fait.

SONORITÉS

Je joue sur un randall KH75, ca passe tres bien, plusieurs disto, MXR dime ou vai jemini, Elle se defend bien.
Comme tout le monde sait les EMG ont leurs limites mias pour une gratte de metal c'est tres bien.Il est possible de rajouter des mecaniques bloquantes, mais au risque de bousiller un peu la gratte, je le verouillerai. j'ai une autre gratte avec floyd, ca ira tres bien.
A noter cependant que le kahler est bien plus agreable qu'on floyd a utiliser.
A noter aussi la peite cavité pour la pile, facile d'acces

AVIS GLOBAL

JE l'ai depuis Aout 2009, j'enrage quand je la sors d el'etui car mettre une guitare noire dans un etui a plusches blanches, ca donne pas une gratte tres clean, mais bon, c'est ma premiere et surement seule Gibson mais elle m'a tapé dans l'oeil. Apres je trouve pas que gibson fasse de meilleures grattes que d'autres mais bon.un peu chere (1400 euros, l'originalité a un prix), a refaire je ne sais pas c'etait plus un achat coup de tete. Mais bon, ca pese, ca envoie bien la patate et c'est bien fini donc ca me va ;)

Flying V pour la déchiqueteuse?

Gibson [Guitar of the Month - August 2008] Shred VPublié le 27/09/11 à 18:44
contenu en anglais (contenu en anglais)
The Shred V is a pretty interesting guitar from Gibson. It seems like they wanted to make a Flying V for shredding but they didnt quite want to commit to it. This was part of Gibsons guitar of the month series. A few years back they would put out a new limited run guitar every month and only for a month. Some cool guitars came out of that series and a lot of ugly ones as well. This Flying V has a mahogany body and neck like most Gibsons. The set neck has an Ebony fretboard with 22 frets. Up top you get no locking nut or even locking tuners which is silly because of the Kahler. This is what I mean when I say they didnt commit to it. You get dual EMG pickups. They went the way less traveled with their EMG's and included dual 85s which I have never seen before but like. I like dual 85s personally. The 85s have a thicker sound overall than the 81s and have more warmth.

UTILIZATION

The guitar plays as well as any Gibson. The ebony fretboard is nice. I wonder why they dont put it on all their guitars if they can put it on this. No locking nut or tuners is silly. The tremolo puts the guitar out of tune if you use it because there is no locking nut. Its like the tremolo was an after thought. They have guitars with tremolos that have locking nuts so why not on this guitar. This guitar does not seem to be designed for a tremolo. The neck shape is between the 60s and the 50s neck. The body is nice and light from the V design. The fret markers are black dots on an ebony fretboard so they are pretty much impossible to see. Since the guitar has EMG's Gibson put in a battery compartment in the control cavity plate so you can change batteries without having to open the whole guitar up. This is a nice touch.

SOUNDS

Dual 85s is pretty much my favorite set for EMG's. The 81 is more common but the 85 has a thicker sound than the 81 and is more versatile overall. In this guitar it is used in both positions and yields good results. In the neck you can get nice and smooth high gain leads. It cleans up alright in the neck position but it still has a ton of output. In the bridge you get a thick crushing sound with a big low end. This guitar sounds huge.

OVERALL OPINION

If this guitar had a locking nut and no inlays it would pretty much be perfect. The black inlays on the ebony fretboard have no reason for being there. The tremolo without a locking nut is the fastest way to go out of tune. They have guitars with locking nuts so why not on this guitar. The tremolo must have been an after thought. If you are looking for a metal flying V you can get this and not use the tremolo. If you are looking for a flying V with a tremolo there are other models with better designs overall.
