5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Experience, February 14, 2010
This review is from: Electric Guitar Package - Includes Guitar, Amp, Strap and Instructional DVD SX RST 3TS w/GA1065
Shipping - They shipped the guitar package to me the next day, and in addition, they used UPS "Quantum" so that I got automatic email updates with the status of the shipment.
Packaging - The guitar and amp were each packaged separately in brown boxes. The boxes did have the words "guitar" and "amplifier" so if they are meant to be gifts, use caution. There was no excessive amount of cushioning, but the packaging was well engineered and meticulous and everything arrived in excellent condition.
Quality - As a beginner, I have no specific knowledge about what makes a guitar a high-quality guitar. But as a consumer, I can tell you that the general fit, finish and construction is excellent. To my eye, everything seems very well made (see tuner note below). Considering the price of this kit, I am really impressed.
Tuner - The included electronic tuner impressed me at first. It seemed like something that could easily sell for $20-30 on its own and it looked well made. Unfortunately is stopped working after a few days. When I notified Rondo Music, they immediately offered to ship me another free of charge with no questions asked. The new one arrived after about a week and so far it is working well. The great service from Rondo more than made up for the disappointment of the broken tuner.
If I do end up sticking with this hobby, I will definately look at Rondo first for future purchases.

Good guitar for a good price, March 19, 2010
This review is from: Electric Guitar Package - Includes Guitar, Amp, Strap and Instructional DVD SX RST 3TS w/GA1065
Normally I wouldn't buy a guitar without holding it first but this was just a starter guitar for my son and it was hard to beat the price, so I took a chance. It shipped quickly and I was surprised at how well constructed it is. The action is great and there are no buzzing frets. This is a much better instrument than the cheapo guitars I was looking at in the department stores. The accessory pack (case, picks, strap, tuner, cord, DVD) is great too. The amp is adequate, nothing spectacular but it will serve its purpose.
If you're a professional musician, this is probably not the instrument for you but if you're just starting to play or you play recreationally, then you can't go wrong with this guitar package. In fact, I've been playing on and off for 30 years and find myself reaching for this guitar instead of mine after my son goes to sleep.
