Larry Carlton S7 SG 2nd Gen

First of all, the guitar for me has a real wow factor. The fret ends where a bit sharp though, so for me a bit of a disappointment. All the reviews I've seen where extremely complimentary about the fret ends, so maybe I had some false expectations. Then again, nothing I couldn't fix myself. But not perfect frets. The action was a bit high, so setup could be better. I had a weird blueish spot in the green paint job as well. But then the great parts: the pickups and the neck. Wow, just wow. The pickups are really articulate, bright and clear. Not your typical heavy metal pickups. But so darn good for cleans, blues and rock. Behind the covers the electronics look really good. Great solder jobs and very, very decent wiring quality! Maybe some flaws on the outside. But the heart of the instrument is just very good. No need for pickup or electronic changes. Just some fret end treatment and fret polishing, a nice setup and your good to go. I dare to say: this is right up there with Fender.
