Musical Background: guitar & bass for years & years- dabble in keyboards
Music Style: A variety--mosty blues & derivatives of blues
Back to Product Information
Sound: One of the reasons I got a hollow body was to get a different sound than a solidbody (Which I also own.) The sound decays faster, but doesn't get muddy. The trapeze tailpiece helps this as well. The notes are crisp & clean, but they dirty up well. Cool sound for blues and rock. Feature: Features are standard for a two humbucker guitar, so nothing fancy, but it does the job. I like the wood pickguard and the design of the tailpiece. Ease of Use: Very easy to get into--the biggest thing is the size & shape as compared to a solidbody electric, but easy to get used to-easier than a dreadnaught acoustic. Quality: Well made, it's three years old, and no issues. Value: The price is higher now than when I got mine, but still a good deal. Manufacturer Support: Well, I haven't had to use it--so in my books that's a good score, if you don't need it. The Wow Factor: As I said earlier, I wanted something different. I tried a lot of different types of guitars (Over 50 over several months--so I was patient that way), and while many were quite good, none cried out for me to buy them, like this one did after a few seconds--and it kept crying it out the whole time I tried it out--first acoustically & then plugged in. It's not really intended as an acoustic guitar, but that's okay--it still sounds good when I play it unplugged. Overall: If this guitar was stolen I would certainly get another one with the insurance. If I lost it, I wouldn't be able to afford one right away, but I would be saving up.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.
