Title: Skylark

Does anyone have one of these?  What can I expect the tone to be like with the two humbuckers?  Like a Les Paul?

RE: Skylark.  
 
  It is awesome.  It sounds like a lot of different guitars.  It is very paulish.  It also gets the PRS tones, all of them.  You can even get some strat-ish tones out of it.  The two things that this guitar has over all of them though is sustain and trueness.  Never a dead note anywhere.  And sustain,  Spinal Tap only wishes they had a guitar that could sustain a note like this one does.  
 
But, the best part comes when you plug it directly onto a mixing console.  Oh yeah.  It is very warm and acoustic like.  It's like recording an acoustic guitar without the hassle of recording an acoustic guitar.    
 
I have the prototype and it is for sale.  You can email me.  (alembicdoc@aol.com (mailto:alembicdoc@aol.com))
