Gold Tone's mellow tone and balance edged it for me.

[@jebbytunnelcoats1182]

Goldstar was maybe my favourite. All sounded good.

Each one was mellowed than the last, so I suppose it depends if you’re playing with a band and want to blend or cut through

[@moonbread2334]

Which one was the easiest/most fun to play?

[@davidcudlip6587]

Ding Ding Ding !!! Big Scioity ! What do I win?

[@KenneyCmusic]

I like them all, but the Recording King stuck out the most for me
