Gianni_boy Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I love Gibsons LP's especially the new axcess, a really good idea.....But 2 things are keeping me from totally falling in love with it. 1. They use the cheap made in korea floyd roses (the shape of the sattles destinquishes if its a asian made or german made). 2. The slimmer body (the reglular LP thickness would of been more kickass, weight relieved of corse) Opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Really? For the price you would think they used "the real thing". Maybe they will use german made hardware in some upcomming 15K limited edition... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgTime Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Yeah, i dont know about you guys, but did the fretboard feel bigger in width? I was ripping one up and it just felt wierd as hell on the upper frets. Maybe its just an lp, but i dunno.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem00n Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 The trem on my 200 dollar ibanez and is better then that ****... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callen3615 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 FR is not what they used to be' date=' yes they did really get the trem thing going for those like (I'm sorry for bringing up this name) EVH and countless others who like to abuse the trem. A few years ago Ibanez purchased the license and then took that as a benchmark and pretty much redesigned the unit (The Pro Version) on their Prestige models. Now if you like trems that the best copy one I have ever come across.

Personally the original edge is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdclmn7 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 It sounds like a decent effort at meeting consumer demand. The thinner body would make it feasable. If its a matter of getting the biggest bang for the buck, you have it. You can always buy another trem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
