I bought an Orville, not "by Gibson", Les Paul Custom some months ago. I spent a bunch of money on high-quality hardware, fret job, all new electronics etc (Duncan, Tone-Pros, Grover). Final outcome was a very dead/muddy/dark sounding guitar.
I own and have modified many high quality instruments, so I know what a good guitar sounds like. Does anyone else have an Orville that suffers the same poor tone?
I've noticed the poly finish is very thick on this guitar so I'm going to strip the finish and put a light coat of lacquer to see if that helps. Has anyone else tried this?
Thanks,
Dave
