Short on jangle, sustain and upper shimmery harmonics, but big on a sort of thick meaty midrange and with a great sweet treble. Fucking love my 60's LG, and I've played bit on a friends 65 J50 which sounds much the same but twice as loud.
Great mouth feel though!

Fixed!
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
