Agreed. I gigged with mine this past weekend and it went great, handling everything from clean strummy acoustic sounds to overdriven Marshall to a Big Muff pedal wonderfully. Some feedback close to the amp but musical and controllable. The compressor really pushed the solos over the top.
The only issue I had was tuning. It would slip right out when I played hard and had to tune about four times during the set. My standard stays in tune for days. I'm not sure if it's the Gibson strings that shipped with the guitar or the vintage Klusons that don't hold as strongly as the Grovers on my Standard. I'm thinking of swapping the pegs but the ES is so nicely pout together I want to keep it as original as possible.
Any thoughts?
