Just a nice little guitar

My primary focus in music has been bass and acoustic guitar. I have owned a string of electrics to fill in leads in my studio recordings. As a result, I don't go for PRS, Les Paul, or other high end American models. I've owned Epiphones, Dan Electros, and old Guilds over the years. Of all of the electrics I've owned, I'd rate this the most versatile and easy to play instrument yet. Unlike every Epiphone I've ever owned, this thing actually stays in tune. It has the low and butter and the high end bite I'm looking for, and the neck is a treat. I'd definitely recommend this guitar (probably this line) to others.

Disappointed

The guitar has pretty high action comparing to my old Kramer, it makes a lot of buzz if you play hard, but it still sounds way better because of wood it made, HB are not impressive if you play heavy music, though clear sound is very good. I bought it because of slim neck that fits perfect in my small hand.

Excellent, versatile mid-range guitar

It was just what I was looking for as far as features. Hard tail with string-through body bridge really helps it sustain. The neck is amazing. My qualm with the features is the nut. This guitar deserves a nut that won't catch. Mine does and it's probably because I use thicker strings (10-52). I set it up and it sounds great, but the lower frets are a bit out of tune for such a guitar. I may need to replace the nut. Factory set up if great, though if you're into using nines. Great sound, great value.

Incredible

The only reason I gave this guitar a 9 in the features area, is that I would have loved for it to have an RMC Piezo bridge, but that is available in higher models...This guitar plays and sounds like a dream. It's that simple. I've played authentic Gibsons, PRS, LTD, and Brian Moore now officially owns me. This guitar comes in WAY under the competition price with better sound and feel. The coil tapping really lets you get some incredible tonal differences that can make your high gain sound tear and your clean sound sparkle. I am totally hooked, and am now buying a 21.13 so I can make use of the Piezo and 13pin connection to a roland synth I picked up. Brian Moore is definitely my choice manufacturer.

Brian Moore Guitars Rule!

This is the best guitar you can get that's not custom made, period!! It is better than alot of custom made guitars that I have seen and played. Seymour Duncan pickups, Sperzel locking tuners etc all for a GREAT price! No guitar in this pricerange can come close to this axe! And in my opinion, as good as (if not better than) custom PRS guitars that cost $1000 more. Try one for yourself and you will know!!
