- Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2022Style: Right-HandedVerified PurchaseOnly problem I had, which is not really an issue, is action is super high and intonation is wayyy off from factory. But, I always bring my new guitars to a Luthier to fix this. After I got it back, ooooooh man what a dream! I frickin love this guitar! Im not a fan of the stock pickups but they are do-able. Guitar arrived in perfect condition, no scratches or bumps, no defects. Just ordered some EMG Bone Breakers to switch pickups with. I would definitely recommend this guitar for any hard core Kirk Hammett fans on a budget. Go for it!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2022Style: Right-HandedVerified PurchaseBought this to add to my guitar collection and must say is a much better quality guitar over some of my other guitars. Of course first off I have never had a guitar with a Floyd Rose bridge before and after getting it went to put new strings on it. Had to do some looking into the whole Floyd Rose Bridge first and then after doing a couple strings I started to get the hang of it. After replacing the strings and then playing around with getting everything correct and in tune it had held tuning pretty well and sounds really great. Though not to thrilled with the Floyd Rose locking nuts on the neck since I tend to rub against them when using 1 and 2nd fret but I just need to adjust my playing to it.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2019Style: Right-HandedVerified PurchaseWonderful guitar, but it’s heavy!! Make sure you have a good strap to support it if you plan on playing for an extended period.
This was my Floyd Rose Special tremolo bridge and it’s incredibly difficult for a beginner. Watched the videos online and read the instructions but was still not able to get it setup correctly. Took it to my local music shop and had it tuned up and now it’s ready to rock!
The factory strings had snapped in the box and had to be replaced.
Finish was flawless and not a mark on her!
Overall great value for an intermediate level guitar,. Would not recommend it to a novice due to the Floyd Rose bridge, but if your a Metallica fan, it’s worth learning!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2024Style: Right-HandedVerified PurchasePretty happy with the entire experience from finding the exact item I was searching for to the purchasing process. The item arrived quickly and it was well packed, no tears or any part of the box was disturbed. It is a brand new item as described.... I use Amazon alot and this was one of the biggest items I've purchased and I am always concerned about shipping bigger items, I have no worries now.
