Electric Guitar Kit T-Style : Experiment gone good

6 years ago

I bought this as I wanted a yellow guitar and thought it would be a fun project, what could really go wrong for 80 euros? If it went poorly I had a guitar, if it went well I had a guitar that I would enjoy to play

Pros

-Cheap

-Great kit to practice setting up guitar

-Easy to play

-Don’t feel bad cutting and customising

Cons

-Hardware a little cheap - tuners clunky

-Pick-ups a little noisy - but they are single coils

-Instructions not the best

The build was easy. the hardest thing was painting and placing some homemade transfer stickers. Instructions were not the best, e.g. which screws went where, but it was easy enough to work out.

I spent a little time dressing the fretboard (again first time I had done this but an 80 euro guitar is the way to practice!) A quick set-up and intonation and I love it. It plays and sounds great.

I have no regrets purchasing this guitar. It has become one of my favourites to play at home. It has also given me a guitar to upgrade without the worry of 'wrecking' another guitar.

A great kit and I highly recommend it.
