AS73-TBC : Its a nice guitar for the money

6 years ago

The guitar is well made for a guitar at this price point. Its not going to blow your mind. As with most guitars in this price range, it needs a little set up, intonation etc. I set it up with 11 gauge strings and replaced the nut with a graphteq one. WIth the appropriate nut filing the intonation at the low end of the neck was improved. Frets could do with a little polishing. Electronics are fine, though the odd little bit of scratchiness in pots.

Overall, out of the box its a 2.5 or 3. Add in a little work on setup and it creeps higher towards 3.5 or 4, though probably not all the way.
