I’m the proud owner of a new Justice Pro-Lite! Fred Justice was extremely helpful in discussing finish and copedent options. He sent pictures along the way during the build and got the guitar shipped quickly and safely. Plus, Fred’s just a pleasure to visit with on the phone – he even called me to play the first few notes once the guitar was ready for strings.
I decided to purchase the Justice Pro-Lite because I wanted a (mostly) basic E9 single neck guitar that would be light weight and reliable – something easy to setup and tear down that would stay in tune and sound good consistently.
I talked with Fred and decided on a Red Ripple finish with a White Pearl Ripple split custom front. The guitar looks great and the workmanship is top notch. The copedent is a standard Emmons 3 X 5 setup with the LKV lowering 5 and 10. The RKR lever lowers 2 & 9 PLUS lowering string 10 a whole step. The changer works smoothly and holds tuning. Fred setup the timing and a compensator so that notes change together and come into tune correctly.
The guitar sounds good with enough tone, definition and sustain to make me happy.
Just wanted to share my experience and say “Thanks Fred!†|
