Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
Always want to upgrade but this one is a great product and would buy it again if stolen.
Sound
After tunning it and plugging it in the sound was just as good as the other guitars on stage. It sounded great. Some people bring in instruments wanting to play and they have twang and being in key problems but this guitar fit right in with all the other instruments even tho there are better sounding guitars you can not beat it for the price.
Features
The tuner worked fine and the sound pick up worked perfectly.
Ease of Use
Works great if you don't forget to turn the tuner off.
Quality
Looks goods. If it had some ivory inlays around body and stuff it would be worth a fortune, but looks nice for Church.
Value
Great value for the price.
Manufacturer Support
No help needed
The Wow Factor
It's just a practical addition to what we have but strings not breaking and easy to play.
