Rough fret ends and some bad luck
After reading the good reviews I decided to buy one. Upon receiving I noticed that the fret ends were sharp and unpolished. They were so sharp that I did not dare to slide my hand along the neck. As it is a cheap guitar I did not know what to expect, so I contacted Thomann support to ask if it is normal for this guitar and they told me to send it back for a check. Otherwise the guitar was good and had a good intonation.
I received a replacement guitar from Thomann and this one got the same terrible fret ends, maybe even worse than the first one, but this time the intonation is not good. It is playing flat on higher frets, which is a pity as I play in open D tuning and often high up.
Honestly, I regret sending the first guitar back as it had a perfect intonation and probably I could have filed the fret ends myself. I do not know if I dare to contact Thomann about another replacement.
EDIT: I decided to contact Thomann, and the third guitar is perfect! The intonation is good even at the highest fret, and the fret ends are smooth. If I would do a review about just this third guitar and not the two previous I would give full 5 stars considering its price.
