GT-Pro Deluxe BK : Wouldn’t be without it

I bought this 10 years ago to use on stage only. I was in an electronic duo with a retro-futuristic image so it seemed ideal.

It actually sounded better than expected and I used it in recordings as well as live.

To this day I use it a lot even though I have lots of other guitars, mostly because it’s so handy.

The size and shape mean it will stand anywhere leaning without needing a guitar stand so I can keep it by my work desk and grab it any time inspiration strikes.

Double ball end strings aren’t cheap but very quick and easy to change. The trem can be locked if you don’t need it, and it stays in tune for weeks when locked. When not locked it’s still pretty good at staying in tune tho.

There are two strap buttons on the back making it easy for left handed players to use as well as giving it balance when leaning on a wall.

Easy to set up and get a very low action.

My only complaint is the trem system can cause the strings to lift off the saddles when dive-bombing. Pickups aren’t the best but ok for high gain sounds.

Being so small, but still full scale, makes it great for practicing or travelling, and I have used mine for recording in a hotel room.

Won’t get a Les Paul or strat tone out of it but a great guitar for anyone creative
