Crap model or just a lemon?
Bough this after reading OK reviews and expected something at least decent but instead i got something thats practically _unusable_.
First of all, it doesnt keep any tuning for more than a few minutes, no kidding. Second, the neck is so bad it affects the tuning by just tilting the guitar sideways like 45 degrees.
A guitar that doesnt stay in tune even when tuned is just something to look at, which is basically all it does for me now, its standing in a corner looking pretty sweet.
WIth all that said, I also bought a Harley Benton bass guitar at the same time and that one is however really good for its price, so I wouldnt blame the brand itself but rather this model.
Summary: With a price like this i guess you have to consider any extensive QC might not be something that's prioritized by the manufacturer.

Very very poor
Guitar arrived today and boy what a disappointment.
Tuners are very cheap and not accurate - guitar will NOT stay in tune.
One of the tone knobs was pressed tight into the body and was sitting 1/2 cm below the others.
I have two deep cuts on my index and pinky after 20 minutes of testing - the edges of the frets are razor sharp and badly finished.
Pickups are muddy and lacking in definition. Action was very high. A luthier inspected the guitar and told me it would cost around £100 to fix the mistakes but his advice was that it was unplayable and he told me to return it immediately.
I'm returning this for a refund and I regret ever spending the money on it...without a doubt the worst instrument I've tried in 30 years. How this ever got past quality control is beyond me.

Disgusting
So I had to send the first one back because it was in terrible condition...the second one is also poor...I returned the first one but the replacement that they sent out was ten pounds cheaper...so I've been ripped off there...thomann owe me ten pounds...also the machine heads are so poor that this guitar won't stay in tune...this was supposed to be a birthday present but every time I look at it I just feel despair...if nothing can be done then I won't be using thomann again...they don't even check the instrument before shipping...avoid this.
