Amazing guitar

I'm blown away by the quality of this guitar! This is the least amount of money I have ever paid for a guitar. The quality of the guitar fit and finish, fretwork and setup is fantastic. The only improvement would be locking tuners. And the only negative thing that I could say is that my particular guitar is heavy. I absolutely love it 😀 😍

P90!

This is my first guitar with P90 single coil pickups. And f holes!! It’s a beautiful guitar, and it sounds awesome! Comfortable neck. UNBELIEVABLE price to value ratio.

Lovely to play, with Ernie Ball slinkys. Super well made and beautiful to behold. What more can I say?! Worth every penny.

Stunning for the Price

This guitar is amazing for the price, sounds great out the box and understand the comment "Air Intakes" in the video. It looks great and comparable to guitars 5 times the amount. One that will remain in my collection.

Only comment for improvement is stainless steel frets, which is not a massive deal overall.

Very high quality guitar

This is an unbelievable guitar for the price. Extremely high quality throughout and the finish is just sublime. It looks every bit as good as it sounds too. Just brilliant...

So much guutar for the money

I've had this guitar for a while now and it's nearly all I play. I have a bunch of more expensive 'brand' guitars but I keep coming back to this one. Arrived set up nicely. Pickups are really sweet sounding. The only modification I've made are the addition of some more precise tuners, frictionless string trees and strap locks. Warm chimey clean tones, overdrives like a slightly irate boss and feels like butter in the hand. Strong recommed

5 Stars a reach? Not really

I was a professional for 30+ years and have owned many "dream" guitars. This guitar came in only needing a some slight fret work and intonation. I've had guitars worth many times more needing more work. The value is out of this world. I'm in love with the tone of the P90s. The neck is silky smooth and very easy to play. After a month or so of use now it feels better each time I pick it up. So, yeah... 5 stars it is.

Beautiful Guitar

This guitar has been an absolute joy to own, look at, and play. I have had absolutely no issues out of the box and within minutes I was playing it.

Plays great, looks great, sounds great and it's got P-90s can't go wrong!!!

The guitar arrived in perfect condition. I just adjusted the bridge slightly to lower the action and it plays great. I own several Gibson's and Fender s this guitar is insanely good for the price! I have always loved P- 90s and the Roswell PUPs sound really good. I plan to purchase the Aleous Frost Flame next.

Worth much more..

Right off the bat, I'll say that the fret ends on this guitar are quite bad. However, at this price range you can only expect this.

The pickups, fretboard, feel, and overall quality otherwise is quite good. Worth much more than what you are paying for.

Great T-style guitar!

Awesome thinline Tele

It's beautiful and sounds great. My only possible complaint is that it has a relatively thick neck, but for the price, it can't be beat.

Great guitar punches well above its price point

Arrived safely, no damaged. Fantastic sound. Once setup to my preference it was a joy to play. I tend to find you need to spend a good few hours playing a new guitar, get familiar with it. I made some adjustments to the pickup height and the poles,.I prefer to try get the most out of the stock hardware if possible and rarely see the need to change.

Awesome for any price

Don’t let the headstock fool you, this plays as well as any fender/Gibson on the market. If you’re a tinkerer at all don’t waste your money on the big name brands. This like buying a house with a good foundation, it sounds great stock but I’m always fiddling with guitars anyway so I’m not buying these for sound alone. I took of one star for quality and it really should only be a quarter of a star down, the fret ends we’re a little sharp up top but some steel wool took care of everything. Truly an awesome guitar and awesome company.

A Beauty more than skin deep.

P90, Semi-hollow, comfortable and easy to play.

Detail and construction was perfect - no flaws at all. This model has been around for a while and they have got it down to a T.

The P90s have enough growl and are not harsh at all when driven.

The nearest guitar I can compare it to was the Mex Fender 72 Thinline Tele I used to have. In constructional detail the HB is superior. Both sound good. The Tele had a very rounded neck profile which I did not like. The HB is flatter and better for lead play.

A different type of guitar well worth trying.
