Interestimg shot at P90
StephanPK 04.07.2022
I bought this guitar as it's a baritone and has P90, interesting combination. The pickups are "reverse-wound, reverse-polarity", so no hum in middle position on high gain settings. For quality, one of the screws on the bridge just broke while adjusting intonation. THe action is a bit high, could not yet adjust it to my preference. On other hand, that is not a shredder, so it's less important. The best feature is the sound -it's tuned low, but has P90 punch and clarity. Interesting sound.

Low price, Moderate quality, would recommend
Ted Q 21.04.2023
This is my unscientific review based on gut feeling.
I bought this as a starter baritone guitar, and it exceeds that role. Everything about the guitar feels good except the pickups, which feel really flimsy but sound fine, and the tuners are a bit cheap.

It feels bigger than it looks, and is pretty heavy compared to a squier strat, which are both fine to me. I would consider this to be comparable quality, but a baritone size.

If I continue with baritone, I'd likely get a 30in scale length with better pickups, but this definitely works for now.

You will need new tuning pegs.
Etan 11.08.2022
The tuning pegs are very poor quality, with this much string tension they simply will not hold tuning. This is just for the guitar I received of course, however I see this issue in the reviews. Still, for the price, really you can't go wrong. The tone is very good. The setup itself also needs work, but, as said. Price Price Price.

Very solid, if not perfect
Peter_H 15.12.2022
Really good value - if you want a baritone in your arsenal you could do a lot worse. This sounds very good and feels very good to play. The looks are also great. The only nit I have to pick is with tuning stability. The highest 3 strings can go out of tune quite easily and the tuning machines are not super precise. Good pickups and nice bridge, though.

My first baritone
Dimka_Park 17.10.2023
In general, this is an unbeatable baritone guitar in the category in terms of price, when the market for these guitars is very limited anyway.
Unfortunately, it arrived with a very high action and also many drops of glue on the fretboard - my technician was able to fix it (Thomann paid for the service) and since then it is a tool that gives me a lot of inspiration.
