Rate/Review This Resource

Reviewed on 7/21/00 by Henry Matthes (13)
Rating:
I'll probably keep it forever. It bounces around in the truck of my car and in airplanes. Lot's of fun for little money. Probably a good campfire guitar.
Model Year: 2000
Price: $175 (new)
Where Obtained: Fred's Music Website
Features:
Lightweight practice guitar for travel. Made in Mexico with good quality. Keeps the calouses in shape while allowing you to keep searching the next great song. Not for stage, not for recording, this is personal music.
Sound Quality:
This sounds way better than you would think, but it has its own funky personality. You may want to record a track into something else that you are recording -- just to add a different sound! Good for finger picking, slide and walking two finger chords. Not for rockabilly.
Durability:
Bullet proof construction and nice gig bag with shoulder strap and outside pocket. Throw it into the airplane overhead compartment and don't worry.
