Good Points

The good points have to be the price. I picked one up from a local guitar shop for £50 and managed to get a decent set of Phosphor Bronze strings thrown in to seal the deal.


Bad Points

Build quality is far from great. However despite the cracks it's stayed together and more importantly it stays in tune well. The action is a bit on the high side, but helps to build strength.


General Comments

Overall this is a great buy for anyone looking for a guitar in the sub £100 price range. I'd recomended changing strings to phosphor bronze, this gives a much better sound than the odd steel ones it comes with. Also, for the confident person, sanding off 1-2mm from the bridge will help lower the action. But be careful not to take to much off and make sure you confident that your takling the job correctly as I suspect getting a replacement bridge may not be so easy.
