RG-Junior BK Rock Series : Hard to believe

6 years ago

This product is an absolute steal. For 75 euros you get an actual guitar (not a toy) . As it came it was very playable, setup was fine, neck is straight, string action was a bit high out of the box but certainly playable and easy to fix.

I bought this as a first guitar for my 6 year old son to have a go.

It can take standard tuning just fine, I did put some heavier strings on it to accommodate (10-52).

I invested some more time and money into upgrading it:

* Some fret work : slight leveling, frets were a bit sharp at the side of the neck, I sanded the fret ends, rounded the edges and polished the frets with a Micro-Mesh stick.

* Put a tusq nut and matching black saddles on it.

* Put some inexpensive black locking tuners on it.

* Upgraded to black roller string trees.

* Changed the strap buttons, jack plates and screws to black ones.

Now this turned into an awesome playing guitar for next to nothing!

Without the upgrades this guitar is well worth the money, if you want a great playing small scale guitar go for some upgrades as well!
