It's a cheapo guitar and I'm returning it. I don't enjoy playing it.
Sound
I'm a bit spioled by my George Benson but the X27 is kind of lame. My wife's SG wipes the floor with it and my George Benson in turn wipes the floor with that. The low B is half the volume of the other strings and the tone knob seems to be sort of on/off. The two pickups together aren't bad but each alone is flat.
Features
The knobs are simple enough, and the 7th string would be nice if...
Ease of Use
Nothing complicated or difficult about it's use but it's "playability" is not so high. The action and the neck don't feel especially great.
Quality
There is some pretty bad fret buzz on the G string and the the low B. The pickups aren't aligned with the strings.
