Ok for the price but better strings won't fit without drilling.
The first one I got was smashed to bits. No wonder when they are shipped inside a VERY flimsy "gig bag" with only a thin plastic bag on the outside. No cardboard box.
Thomann kindly replaced the broken one but shipped the second one in the exact same way. By some miracle it arrived in one piece.
It's a decent instrument for the price but the stock strings aren't the best. When trying to replace them with better strings (the ones recommended by Thomann) I got a problem. The better quality strings were too thick for the holes in the body of the instrument. New holes had to be drilled and although this might not seem like a huge problem it was actually not that easy. Clamping down the instrument and using a heavy electrical hand held drill is far from ideal for this kind of precision work on a rather flimsy instrument. The right tools for this kind of work is definitely not something you will find in a regular hardware store.
I somehow managed to make it work but I was really close to ruining the instrument in the process.
It's a decent sounding instrument for the price but unless you are prepared to use the cheaper, thinner strings you might have a problem.
Tuning stability on mine is awful but I wasn't expecting it to be much better at this price.
As something fun to have around the studio I'm reasonably happy with it but it's not exactly pro level quality. At least mine isn't. I expect they can vary a bit at this price.
