5.0 out of 5 stars The most stunning guitar!

 So I will start by saying I am a complete beginner. My new years goal for 2023 was to finally learn to play guitar a bit. I do NOT aspire to be an amazing musician or anything. I’m 38 and a stay at home mom. I want to be able to play songs around the fire pit or sing some Christmas songs with my kids. Basic stuff.

I first ordered a beginner guitar from Amazon that was super cheap. But. When I started playing it, that’s exactly how it felt. Super cheap. I felt like I was playing a toy. So that same week I decided I needed to spend a little more money and get something a bit more real.

I looked and just completely fell in love with the look of this one. I loved the dark wood and the glossy look of this guitar. I was worried about it being too big for me to hold comfortably though.

When it arrived, the look of it was just stunning. I mean. It is GORGEOUS! Everyone who sees this guitar gives me compliments. It IS big for me and at first I thought I might return it but couldn’t bare to part with it since it was so stunning.

Over the past few months that I’ve had it, I’ve gotten used to the size. The size just feels normal now.

I got this in the spring and haven’t devoted much time to trying to learn playing. I mostly watch YouTube videos and did a subscription to the Justin Guitar app for a few months. I can play C, A, G, E, D, a modified F, Em, Am, and Dm. And with my capo that means I can attempt to play many songs.

I don’t really have much to compare this guitar to, except for the cheap guitar I bought first, but this guitar is perfect for me.

It came tuned and has really for the most part stayed in tune. The sound sounds good to me. I share this video of me playing, but be aware that I’m still getting the hang of pressing the strings close enough to the frets/hard enough to have the notes ring out clear without buzzing. I’m still getting the hang of it.

Overall, I think this was a great guitar for me as a complete beginner. I also think it would be perfect for experienced players. It was an AMAZING price! And the look of it is so stunning. The dark wood and glossy finish are jaw-dropping. I’m so pleased with this purchase! And I’m excited to learn to play better.

I’m not one for words but I thought I’d better write a review on this guitar. I’ve been playing for 30 years I’ve played 1200 dollar guitars and 50 dollar ones. This guitar has the quality, tone, and playability of a 1000 dollar guitar. If your thinking of buying this do.

This is a quality guitar even though it says built in China. The finish is beautiful, frets are not jagged or sharp. The action is low down the neck making it very playable. It stays in tune very well. The case is nice, but is not near the quality of the guitar and that's ok.

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2024
Out of the box I’m thinking it would be perfect connected to a good acoustic amplifier using a decent pickup. It plays nice and easy, but for its size I would expect more sound, but it is quiet. It’s a Fender. I read that Fender sends them out with Fender strings. Maybe, I’m just used to the feel being a little more taut, but since it is a Fender and the strings are Fender I would assume you would put the stings that best accentuate the instrument’s sound. So different strings might not help. I’ve got a few ukulele’s that are too quiet, even for ukulele’s but sound amazing plugged in, so like I said some electronics and a decent amplifier might make it perfect, but the friends I hang out with on occasion don’t allow electronics and I usually end up surrounded by a banjo a mandolin, a Martin and a BlueRidge, and I’m pretty sure that even with my loudest, and brightest I’ve played whole songs on occasion in the wrong key totally unaware because no one could hear, not even me. So, a good practice guitar it is, but for jamming, maybe if I sit near the back of the room, at least I’ll be able to hear it. But it is beautiful and it’s mine…

4.0 out of 5 stars A Nice Guitar for the Price
Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2023
It is a nice looking unit, for sure, and I actually like the gloss finish all over, which some have had issue with. Mine had the action a little low, resulting in some quite prevalent fret buzz mostly about halfway up the neck, especially with the crap tens it came with. Barre-chording was not pleasant. At least I think they were tens—I dunno. They were not that great at all whatever they were. Though I considered sending the thing back, I instead upped the gauge to 12 (Martin cheapos) and put a slight shim under the saddle. I used a strip cut from a credit card. The neck was straight, so I did that before I tried easing up the truss rod. Anyway, it plays great all over now, and my son will be psyched for his birthday here in a few days. It is relatively easy to play, even with the higher action. Overall build quality is nice, but it does border on that overbuilt sound. I have an Aria parlor-esque guitar that was comparable in price but is much louder, despite being considerably smaller than this dreadnought size. Overall a good buy. The solid top will improve with age, and the tone even now is very pleasant and loud. A superb strummer and an awesome looker for the two bills.

Box was slightly damaged during shipping, but the hard case and the guitar itself were safe and in perfect condition inside. For the price, this is a fantastic guitar. It sounds great, and feels nice. The action was in a good spot on arrival, and it tuned up nicely. I went for the black version, and I love it. Very glossy, piano black.

My only complaint is the sticker on the pick guard. I've seen it mentioned in other reviews, but please stop putting stickers on things that you know the end user is going to remove. A note in the box would be more than sufficient. None the less, after a couple minutes picking at it I finally got most of the sticker off. UPDATING: For me, there was a thin plastic layer on the pick guard. I don't know if it's intended to come off or not, but I peeled it off, and it looks significantly better than it did with some of the adhesive left behind.

I'll update this review if anything significant changes over it's lifespan!
