zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:
Everything you need to get started is included, except maybe a good beginners book. The dvd is neat but not really that helpful. The free t-shirt was a nice extra.

Quality:
The guitar looks and feels nice, and has a nice tone. The amp is loud and appears to be good quality. The cord appears to be of low quality but has caused me no probelms. The tuner is very simple to use but not real accurate. The strap is really uncomfortable, this is the one thing I immediately wanted to replace. Other than those 3 things its a real good deal.

Value:
A very good value worth more than the retail price.

Desirability:
Looks very nice for a beginner guitar.

Sound:
This guitar sounds really good for a beginner model. Sometimes the low E string with vibrate on the frets a bit, but very good sound for the price. Also stays in tune for a pretty long time.

Ease of Use:
This product is easy to set up and use. The amp is simple yet pretty darn loud for a beginner model.

Support:
Havent had to use it.

Overall:
I will likely play this for at least a year before I upgrade.

Feature:
It comes with some good stuff, a variety of pics, strap, gig bag, tuner, cable etc. Most of the stuff is pretty good but I suggest getting a better tuner and a higher quality cable. The action is pretty good on this guitar, much better than I had expected. I had one note buzz on me (around 14 or so) but that was because the frets were not in all the way. with a few adjustments this can become a great guitar.

Quality:
This is a pretty good guitar. Its not likely to fall apart anytime soon. Check to make sure everything is in place and again make adjustments as needed. I noticed that after about 6 months of use the jack on the guitar was comming loose but a wrench fixed that.

Value:
It is more expensive than other starter packs, but it is well worth is.

Desirability:
It is sleek, black and has a nice sharp body (like the pics). Its a cool looking guitar (other than the "Gio" on the headstock)

Sound:
The sound is pretty good, the gain on the amp is ok and it howels when turned all the way up, but it is great for a beginner!!!!!

Ease of Use:
This is really easy to use, just plug in the guitar and you're off.

Overall:
I played an Ibanez that school got a friend for band and I'm afraid to say this guitar has better action, without being tweaked. Its possible that the other guitar could have better action if the intonation and whatnot were adjusted. Overall i'm really happy with this guitar and suggest getting this if you're interested in it.

Feature:
Great selection of stuff for beginners to intermediate players. The instructional dvd also helps you get started really well.

Quality:
Patch cord is a bit poop, but it doesnt cause much trouble. A friend said the pickups were a bit lacking, but I'm still learning, they sound great to me. The guitar is pretty sexy too, aside from the GIO on the headstock, cause it has a star over the I :P I should also mention: I bought the silver one. It doesn't really look like the silver on this site. The silver paint has a glittery, sparkly look in it, unlike the sort of flat, metal color that the picture on the site looks like.

Value:
I think this guitar kit has an amazing price personally.

Desirability:
I was looking for pictures of the guitar I was going to get to convince myself it wasnt so ugly and I saw this one. I looked it up and saw it wasnt that much more expensive and I had my mind set on it after reading a few reviews.

Sound:
Sounds great, I'm just using the amp, no pedals or anything. My only gripe is that the patch cord sometimes makes crackling sounds.

Ease of Use:
I got some good sound my first day playing it. I was a sound guy for a friend a while back, so I already knew what all the amp settings did though. A new person might have some trouble, but its really not hard to find the sound that's good for you. The amp is a 15w too. Pretty good for a beginner pack. I've only seen packs with a 10w, other than this one.

Support:
Have not had to call in yet.

Overall:
I might not replace the product until it's broken somehow. I play guitar as a hobby, so I dont need top of the line stuff, but this guitar feels like it's one of the more expensive ones.
