"Good Solid Guitar Pack for Beginners. Loads of Extras."

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
This is a solid guitar with alot of extra accessories. I would recommend it to anyone that wants to learn guitar on an electric. I wouldn't recommend it to an advanced player. I'm thinking they'd be disappointed by it. Let's face it, nobody wants to spend alot of time tuning a guitar before finishing a session.
Sound
I'm new to the guitar. I don't have that much experience and don't have the background to make an informed decision, but I was satisfied with the sound.
Features
I liked that the bundle came with everything you could possibly need starting out. I broke it out of the box and starting playing a couple chords. The accessories weren't the highest quality, but for starters, it had everything you could think of ever needing.
Quality
I like the look to this guitar. It's not the fanciest thing out there, but it has a nice basic look to it. It is vey sturdy. I've heard stories from friends who bought a cheap guitar to learn on and ended up having the thing fall apart on them. The only down side to this guitar is that it gets out of tune really fast. On the bright side, after a couple of weeks, I could expertly tune it in no time.
Value
Like I said earlier, It's got everything you need to get started. It's a great deal for what you pay and what you get.
Manufacturer Support
I haven't had to call for any support issues yet.
The Wow Factor
Nothing too fancy. It is a nice basic guitar.
