LP
All solid wood at a reasonable price, sound is well balanced, harmonious volume between bass and treble strings
Guitar is well built, gorgeous looking, all solid wood, thin matte finish. Action was slightly too high at 12th fret (6 mm), I would say this can be easily rectified by visiting a quality luthier. There was no scratches or visible damages, however internal section of hand rest had quite ugly signs of glue which I need to take care of, hopefully I'll be able to correct it and remove it properly. (glue is not visible from the outside).
Guitar came with a high-tension Hannabach HTC 815 strings (to be fair, strings were in a bad shape, rusty basses and obviously poor QC from Thomann prior shipment).
Sound:
Sound is very reach. Basses sound quite powerful and there is a certain amount of depth which is a nice surprise. Good attack and sustain can be easily identified. Guitar is quite loud.. Sound is well balanced and there is a harmonious volume between bass and treble strings.
E1 and B2 strings sound slightly thin but I believe this can be rectified by using another set of strings, probably I'll go with Savarez Cantiga. Definitely I need to tryout several brands, types and variations of strings.
Overall look is absolutely phenomenal for this price range. I am happy with this purchase. The only down side are strings which came in a poor rusty condition.
