In case it's useful information, Vigier has started a 'parts' store on their website so one can buy a replacement zero fret for the Shawn Lane for a very reasonable price. I have had a Shawn Lane Vigier for 12 years and haven't had any problems, but don't intend on ever selling the guitar so I imagine it will come in useful some time.
You're channeling a lot of Eric Johnson with both your smooth and rich tone, round and well constructed voice leading, and clean execution. Maybe that's just me! Those pickups definitely do the trick, and you get some nice clear and bright tones out of them.
The 20 inch fretboard doesn't make it harder to bend, quite the opposite. But because you have no resistance it is harder to control the bends at least for me. I tried the ultra flat fretboard but never again.
Nice demonstration; your playing is a pleasure to listen to, and that was a great demo of the great variety of sounds from that amazing super strat! Sorry I can't think of more uses for the word "great"! 🤷♂️
@@gitarmats Keep laying down lines like that and I'm sure you will hear a lot of compliments from people who appreciate players like Jeff Beck, Hendrix, Eric Johnson and of course Shawn Lane; those are the influences I think I hear in your playing; hard to go wrong with those guys for inspiration!
Excellent guitars the only thing I change out on them is i use/prefer the PAF PRO'S in place of Air Classics. Very similar pick ups but the pro's Have a bit more clarity, detail And are tighter overall in the lowend.. Shawn used them in his Charvell 750XL.
Yeah, I hear a lot of people prefer switching out those pickups. Shawn's Charvel 750XL is iconic! All those old clips of him playing that are amazing! Thanks for watching!
@@gitarmats Yeah i thought it was his best sounding guitar overall. It is not that i did not like the Air classics it was just that the Dimarzio PAF Pro's have a better ability to handle the really fast playing and are slightly clearer. Plus the PAF pro can do any style i throw at them from Jazz to Rock to country all the way to Death metal. Extremely versatile👍
Very nice. Your search mirrors mine. Vigier SL was the first I played then had to have one. Searched for one for years. Now Vigier is one of the only guitars I’ll play live.
Hey man, nice review! 🤟Where did you get this one? Been trying for quite some time to purchase one. Is this a build order or where you lucky and found one in stock ??
Thank you! And sorry for the late reply! Yes, they are a bit hard to find. I was lucky enough to find this one on the used market here in Norway. I've only seen 2 of them here in over 10 years of browsing, so I bought it as soon as I saw it!
