Aeolus Frost Flame : More Than Just a "Great Value"

3 years ago

Because of the low price of this guitar it's tempting to say "great guitar for the price," but really I think it's a really good guitar whatever the price. I bought it because I wanted a semi hollow, but don't like the large 335 body size. With the Aeolus they created the exact features and form I was looking for. It just amazes me that it was so inexpensive also. I am also happy they did something with the Frost color that is not so typical. Stainless steel frets, locking tuners, coil split, roasted maple neck - all excellent quality features especially for the price. High quality guitar all the way around. I'd say the two cons for me were that the fading from maple color to dark on the body is not gradual or subtle like I was hoping it would be, and I do think it could use a fret level and crown. That being said the action isn't bad, it just could be better. I am glad I took the gamble and ordered this guitar. It's just going to be luck if the draw on the color and grain and mine isn't ugly like a couple others I've seen online but it's not as great and even like the ones they used for the photos.
