Tremendous value for the money.

Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2024

First of all, you HAVE to set it up. If you don't know how to have someone do it for you. The truss rod comes with no tension on it so you have to crank it quite a bit to get the proper neck relief. The saddles are very easy to adjust to get the proper action. I have it setup in E-flat with the strings it came with (looks like 10-46) and it feels really good. The fretwork is nearly perfect and the frets are nice and rounded. The neck is very comfortable and easy to play.
The bridge pickup sounds REALLY GOOD, very similar to a dimarzio super distortion.
The on-board headphone amp is a nice feature but I really don't see a purpose for it as I don't see a point in listening to raw unprocessed guitar signal, maybe in the future if there was a way to add a preamp and effects it would make this guitar a hundred times better.
The strap mounting points are in a weird spot so I don't really use it standing up. Also I wish it had 24 frets and a deeper cutaway but that's just my preference.
Overall it's almost a perfect travel guitar. Hopefully the next version will have some slight modifications made because the craftsmanship is impeccable and the materials are very high quality at this price point.

Donner Customer Service Came Through After (Major) Initial Issues

Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2024

-=Revised Review, with original still intact for reference:=-

I initially received a guitar that stayed in tune, except for the G-string. I returned it and exchanged it for a replacement, but the same issue persisted. The G-string wouldn’t stay in tune even after one strum.

I contacted customer service, who requested a video of the problem. I sent the video twice and received an email saying, "Thank you for the video, we'll be in touch shortly." However, two weeks passed without any further response.

Frustrated, I felt like I had paid for a cool-looking stick with strings that I couldn’t play for more than a minute without issues. While the guitar came with a lot of accessories and looked great, it was ultimately unusable without proper customer support. I advised others to avoid this product and any Donner items.

EDIT - 7/1/24:
Donner reached out to me. They seem willing to help, and I'll update this review shortly. I've temporarily increased my rating by one star to reflect this effort.

EDIT 2 - 7/2/24:
Customer service is actively communicating with me, but there's still no real resolution. I’ve increased my rating by another star for their effort.

EDIT 3 - 7/10/24:
Donner credited me an amount I found satisfactory and sent me another guitar. This third guitar finally works well. The action is a bit high, but I can adjust it. It sounds great, and its size, case, and convenience for travel are excellent.

Bottom line, I’m now satisfied with the product and the outcome.

=TL/DR =
Summary:
1) I received two faulty guitars with the same tuning issue.
2) Initial customer service was slow, but eventually, they provided a financial resolution.
3) I received a satisfactory third guitar.
4) Donner genuinely cares and resolved the issue, though it took some time.
4) My 30-day return window was a concern, but ultimately, I’m happy with the resolution.

Final Note:
Thank you, Donner Customer Service. I believe we’ve finally resolved the issue.

================
Original Review Title:
"2 Guitars Later; Still No Resolution ... Customer Service Non-Existent"

Original Review:
The first one I got, well, it stayed in tune, all but the G-String ... Ok, so I returned it, as I waited for an answer from Donner as to how to remedy the situation and my return window was running out ... I opted to exchange it for a replacement one ... Once again, same issue, the G-String will not stay in tune at all ... And I mean, after -ONE STRUM- ...

I notified customer service again, who asked that I provide a video of the issue, which I've done TWICE now, and got an email back both times saying "Thank you for the video, we'll be in touch shortly" ... Nothing, not a single thing, and it's another 2 weeks later ...

I basically paid for a cool looking "stick" with strings that I haven't even been able to play for one full minute without major issues ...

Yeah, it comes with a lot of "stuff" ... Yeah, it's cool looking, and, yeah, it's theoretically a great "idea" for a guitar ... Save yourself the hassle and disappointment of merely being able to stare at a stick with no customer support behind it, and find something else ... Seriously, find ANYTHING else but this (or just anything Donner in general at this point) ...

Better than expected!

This is a great, versatile little travel guitar that plays and sounds great. I did have to do some set up when it arrived, turned the truss rod a bit, used the very handy and easy to use tools to adjust the action, and it conformed nicely once I tweaked it a little. It sounds great through a full sized amp and with effects. I use it for travel practice through a Spark Go amp with Bluetooth connection. The detachable shape bars fit perfectly and comfortably sitting down and there’s no neck dive playing with a strap. It packs into a very light, small, well padded soft case with two compartments and a few pockets. After traveling with mini guitars and backpackers that had bad sound and frustrating playing quality, I can attest, this guitar is really a treat. Recommended.

I'm so glad that I waited for the Donner HUSH-X. Amazing craftmanship and design. Bonus Stuff

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2023

I have been wanting a travel guitar for a long time now. Every time I was about to pull the trigger, I would see a newer and better product being mentioned. I saw the Donner Hush-I a few months ago and I was really impressed by its design. While researching video reviews of it, I came across videos on the Donner HUSH-X. Perfect, I thought, except that it hadn't been released yet, and there was no information from Donner on when it might be released. This weekend, I was about to buy the HUSH-I which would have been a compromise for me because of the bridge. But, the clouds parted and the guitar Gods shone their faces upon me when I saw the Donner HUSH-X was available and would be here before Christmas. This guitar is so much more than I expected, and the price makes it an unbelievable value compared to the Traveller or the Alp (Asmuse). Although it's not mentioned in the listing, mine came with a clip on tuner, a 10ft long guitar cable (1/4") a pair of wired headphones, a 9V battery, spare allen screws for the bridge. A guitar strap and some picks. I'm in the bonus round now! One of the things that I really like about the Donner is that you do not need a tool or a wrench to tune the guitar (like the Asmuse). This guitar arrived with the action and intonation set pretty good. I may try to lower the action a little, once I play it more. But for now, it is very playable, and sounds great through my amplifier with clean or distorted tones, and even with new strings, it stays in tune. The finish on the frets is excellent and there are no sharp edges or fret buzz. I wasn't sure about putting it on my guitar stand, but it does fit. This guitar will be primarily used for when I'm on the road, and not for playing much at home. I am so glad that I waited for the HUSH-X. It is absolutely everything that I wanted with no compromises. I hope that you find this review and my pics helpful. I'll upload a video with some tones after Christmas.
