My favorite axe. A bit noisy.

Great sound and playability. Just the right size. Can be a bit noisy and nearly impossible to shield, so just accept it as adding to the charm of the guitar.

in these days of iPhones shielding out the guitar barely puts a dent on stage where everyone in the crowd is filming or tweeting away.... I gave up trying to use my single coul guitars onstage and just take gibsons with varying output PAFs to get different drive textures
