Longtime friend Gonzalo Bergara asked Avi to create a great blues machine that is super light and responsive—the result is the Lion GB. It offers a featherweight sugar pine body fitted with a 3-saddle vintage-style bridge, a fat Lollar Charlie Christian neck pickup and J Street bridge pickup. The result is a monster guitar tone that is very unique, with a clear, non-piercing top end, defined, warm and fuzzy bottom end, and a slight scoop in the mid-range with a natural compression that creates the guitar great “spank.”
