Good Points: - Solid build - Incredibly cheap - Nice colours - Thin body
Bad Points: - Non expensive parts
General comments: The Falcon FG100 is a great guitar at a remarkable price (I managed to pick mine up at a mere £35 including delivery)
The sound of the guitar is open and bright. The strings are easily played and well fitted. The overall build is solid, although some of the parts do seem slightly 'cheap' compared to other more expensive models, such as my Tanglewood.
The body of the Falcon is actually slightly thinner than my Tanglewood which makes it more comfortable to hold.
If you are looking for a cheap guitar that can easily compete with more expensive models, then do not look any further than the Falcon FG100.

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.

Falcon acoustics offer the inexperienced or novice acoustic player the chance to enjoy the experience of playing a full size, full bodied dreadnought style acoustic guitar, at a totally affordable price.
Falcon acoustic guitars have a very warm and clean sound; just what you would want from a good quality acoustic guitar. Also, the Falcon acoustic guitars look traditional, but the dexterity of this instrument is far more advanced. This is because many styles of music can be played on this gui ...

The Falcon is playable and very cheap. Ideal for a cheap start to guitar, but as soon as you start to improve you will (like me) realize you need a better guitar. Its like - using a wood saw to cut down a tree it's fine until you realize that 'chain saws' have been invented.
