GRG170DX-BKN : My first guitar

6 years ago

Well, it is a very good guitar for beginning.

pros:

- very nice feeling on neck

- I love the clear and clean sound on S.C. pickup

- It's tone per overall is more than 4 stars, but lest than 5 (it still doesn't feel like a music man or whatever)

cons ( these are minor details )

- The tremolo and the pickups are ok, but not the best (except this one, it is a major)

- there is a lot of dust that gets onto the pickups

- a very heavy guitar (not the genre, literally heavy)

- fingerprints easily

Notice: Even though it does not have a Floyd Rose bridge, it does not seem to get out of tune pretty easily (and I use the whammy bar pretty often).

Also, putting sitckers all over the guitar should get rid of the issue with fingerprints.

In conclusion, if you are playing as a hobby, it is a 5 stars guitar, if not, it could be even less than 4.
