Great guitar for the price!

At first i was a little sceptical about it's quality but when i got it in my hands i instantly changed my mind.

The guitar had a great set up,it was instantly playable.It's sound through an amp is nice and loud and using the piezo pickup makes it sound like an acoustic(but it can be switched off and be played with just the humbucker.

The frets were smooth and the neck super comfortable.

Also what's great is that the guitar actually stays in tune just fine.

Very impressed with this guitar!Bravo.

Excelent Guitar

As usual, speedy prompt delivery. The guitar appears to be well made

with a good finish. the action is a little bit on the low side for playing slide, but is manageable. The magnetic pickup has a nice mellow sound to it (through a marshal combo and a fender), the piezo pickup is a little bit peaky but is manageable with the tone control. All in all a very good guitar which I use mainly for recording.

Just so nice!

This is such an amazing quality guitar for the price, first thing I did when I recieved it was to re-tune to open G, strings are perhaps a little light and action a little low for slide....that said, I have persevered as is but I think if you are new to slide guitar or are a on the heavy handed side, maybe a heavier set of strings are in order.

It's nicely balanced, and has a nice neck, acoustic sound is very authentic, obviously can also be plugged in and with the pick-up options, can be more versatile, insofar as being a more general electric guitar (albeit a very bright sounding one).

If you are looking for a dobro sound on a budget , you could do a lot worse, this has one advantage by the way that should be mentioned, it's slimness, much more comfortable than many acoustic guitars to play. Great to play, beautiful to look at, amazing quality for the price, great service.

Buy buy buy!!

After watching a lot of HB reviews on YouTube, I decided to get one myself and despite those videos I was not ready for the great quality. Very well packed btw. The guitar came out of the box almost in tune and with a great set-up. It looks amazing and stands out in many ways. There are some minor flaws (this speaker thing was not attached, and some very minor finishing issues) but they do not diminish the overall experience at all. It sounds bloody amazing and is such fun to play. I ordered two more guitars after getting this one, and so will you. These prices are just too tempting!

Stop reading this and buy it, you will not regret it!

Reso lution!

Great value reso-electric guitar & electronics are good - although I am still experimenting with settings from on-board knobs & amps & PA systems. Instrument was played straight from the delivery box at a rehearsal (acoustic Blues combo). Neck is very comfortable. I had the plate off to access the saddle to raise the action 1mm & inside is quality parts & construction also. It is quite a narrow guitar, similar in thickness to a Tele, so does not have a big acoustic reso-style sound, but the pickups sound will not disappoint. I would .'. recommend the guitar for anyone wishing a reso-electric sound at a great price. Only minor point is that an instruction sheet on pickup settings & variation would be helpful.

Distinctly unique look and sound!

I have always wanted a resonator guitar, and when I saw this one, I was immediately interested. Well, I got it today and it is amazing. The sound, the action, the looks. If you are on the fence about getting this guitar, don't wait. Grab it now!
