Worth the wait
I play for myself for my own pleasure and for anybody who drops by while I'm doing that.
I've never studied music, but I have a good ear and I've been doing it for 45 years.
I needed an extra guitar for practise and I wanted a slim acoustic (I've got a small
travelguitar, but it's awkward to handle) and this one is perfect.
I was truely surprised when I recieved it, I read some negative things about it, but I must
have been lucky. Mine isn't poorly made, I checked it well and truely and it's proper made,
nothing rattles inside it (or outside) and nothing needs improving. It really just sounds
great.., well, it's got a thin body so it doesn't sound very loud, but hey, it's got a jack
-plug, so if I want loud I can just plug it into an amplifier.., which I did, and that just
confirmed - it does sound great. Unplugged it sounds a bit jazzy (or maybe that's just in my
head), but it's got excellent sustain, probably the best of all of my now 8 guitars. Or
maybe it just inspires me to play it more jazz-like.
It's got a big head (everything being relative), so it drops forward when you wear it on a
strap over your shoulder and let go with your left hand. Some doesn't like that, but I guess
you can make a workaround for that if you want to (ie. sew/glue a rubberlike bit on the
inside of the strap right where it rests on you shoulder).
Only 4 stars at features is due to the knobs (treble, middle, bass, blend and vol.) I've got
big hands (everything still being relative) and though I can handle them I personally would
have preferred the four smaller and the vol. button a bit bigger, and please bear in mind
that I'm mostly gonna use this guitar as an acoustic. I guess I really don't want to say
anything negative about this guitar, I really like it. It's way better than I anticipated from what I read about it. It isn't exactly light as you may expect from a thin, acoustic guitar. It's not heavy, but not light either. The builders have a rather loose relationship to expected deliverance, so make up your mind a couple of months ahead if you decide you want one. I'd say it's worth the wait and worth the money.
I just decided that I'm gonna get me a small (very small) amplifier for this guitar, just to expand the possibilities. I guess it's gonna be the Vox Amplug 2 <a class="article link" href="https://www.thomann.de/dk/vox_amplug_2_cabinet.htm">Vox Amplug 2 Cabinet</a>
