Arturo Fuente Quatro

Posted by Maddog on October 20, 2013 at 1:18pm
Maple neck/heel w/ walnut fret dots, 25 1/2" fretted scale, on board 2.5 watt amp, 2x3 built in monitor speaker, on/off speaker switch, 9 volt battery box, green on/off led, chrome covered humbucker pickup, onyx nut/saddle, maple bridge.CBG can be played 4 ways: #1 with the amp on using the onboard speaker, #2 with the onboard amp and with the onboard speaker and external amp using the bottom out jack for some cool feedback, #3 switch the internal speaker off and use the onboard amp as a preamp to an external amp, #4 plug into the top jack for a straight shot from the humbucker to external amp. Sounds great and is a blast to play around with the different combinations.

    Thanks BLC! 

    Thanks John! I thought about the acoustic but beings it doesn't sound that great acoustically I opted for the Quatro, plus I was always a big Suzy Quatro fan as a kid and loved her name  :-) We are due for a get together.

    Thanks James!

    5.  Acoustic.    As my Chinese friend might say, "Ho Lee Chit!" 

    It looked like a typical, high end MD build.  Then I saw the speaker.  Wow.   And read about all it does. Wow,.  

    We have got to get together.
