B1363 - Michael Kelly CC50 Vintage Seafoam Green
This is a GREAT entry level guitar, my friend. Read this review!
From Premier Guitar:
"In sonic terms, the CC50 delivers on its promise of versatility. I first tested the guitar in single-coil mode (both the volume and tone knobs pulled up) through a Carr Skylark amplifier set up for a clean tone. The guitar delivers classic T-style tones in spades. The bridge pickup is bright and twangy, but not overly so, and it sounds equally great for Bakersfield-style pedal steel lines and open G Keith Richards rhythm stabs.
"The neck pickup sounds darker and warmer—great for jazz lines and chord-melodies—with nice definition and presence. And with both pickups engaged in series I got glassy tones that are perfect for funk rhythm workouts.
"When I cranked up the Carr to the point of breaking up and set the pickups in split-coil mode and in series, I got thick, singing sounds tailor-made for heavy Chicago-blues soloing. Both pickups sounded much more aggressive when I set them for humbucking mode. The bridge pickup alone delivers killer, articulate but crunchy rhythm tones, while the neck pickup brims with overtone-rich sustain."
