This is overwhelmingly bad

I have played on this guitar since April, one thing I will say is that it's a les paul, I does les paul things we all get it. But the way this executes tonely and fretboardly is not great. My hamer in comparison has a much more hum and sounds alive this one sounds incredibly Chinese. It does not sound like les paul, I think modern dhgate guitars do a better job. The frets the higher you go totally barely works if you intonate it. And there is no buzz but the life from this is not good, the neck is too thick again, it's a Morgan. The more I start playing these i hate them for fucking my hearing and wished I saved for a rickenbacker. The tone knobs barely work do no liminal effect, i does not sound great on distortion compared to a real one. Overall better when nothing but it's not the 80s anymore people have options. I suggest modding the pickups, even temu ones will do since this one is DUFF.

Most lifechanging thing to have early on

I used this a lot. The Sony Wh-1000mx4s have a very good noise cancelling function and by far has luxury standard audio and function, this is littrealy as far your ears can hear. It has a very good app witch is not hard at all to navigate the eqs and function, it responds well to samsungs handicap features, and has a lot of soul and life. Unless you have damaged hearing this will be a littreal life-changing thing to have. Songs sounds so good and is nice to have podcasts and things. This is the best tool to multitasking with and it insulates noise good but wouldn't recommend using it at loud workplaces use mufflers too. But this is the best thing to lawn the mawn or do sports. Sadly my earing is not the same so cant really enjoy thing one that much but it gets a 5 star from me.

The best thing to ever make this decade good.

This Tuner has a lot, nice colours, nice system, simple with a lot of functions witch keeps it simple. I like that it stayes on set Tuning. Has about 430 to 450. Lights nice green and red. Easy battery change, can super glue if it breaks. Takes simple 2032 batteries. Only complaint i have is that it does reset completely after battery change. Its plastic sure. But It is cheap and has lasted me well over 3 years. And its a good tool. Has two buttons, one for tunings and one for the 400s range. Jolly good. Would recommend as a started. Costs about 40 dollars. Clip-ons, underrated.

Hell NO

This is not a beginner amp nor a pro amp. The sound is so sharp it should legally be considered a torture device. The EQs look nice a dandy but even if you want to buy this for the Mids it's not even that much of a kick overall, the amp has an Overdrive witch sucks and is not even good for a Lofi-tool leftovers kinda situationship. The reverb switch has very little life and too much or to little. The amp is suseptible to intense feedbacks and fuckups so if you want to keep your ears from having a pulse don't play without mufflers, since even on 3 - 2 volume this is really obnoxious, incoherent and annoying stingy sounds that does not work with anything besides single coils. The Headphone jack is your best guess and just have on all the time and just never plug it off, hell even super glue it shut with a interface or a Fly 3 that is the best you can do with this since it does have a nice sound but is overly aggressive and terribly loud. The external speaker is also the best one to use for anything. The switches and knobs are too flimsy and fast, like cheaply done and you can't replace it. The speaker is not good and too sharp for any real playing. Only have this combo amp at ground level and don't use it unless you have whole tour buss has been stolen. But the trebles and mids cuts to hard and the bass is not responsive. This is a one star amp.

This guitar gave me tinitus and permanent hearing loss. Awful, This is a guitar you would own for 4 months and smash in a venue back in the day.

First thing to point out is that guitar is way too heavy, is feels like you are holding a guitar made from lead. this is uncomfortble to play on, tried to get a guitar service on this, guy charged me 190 bucks to look at it, wiring was screwed, and the nut is constantly falling down on the low e string. the Neck is too wide for even power chords, and the frets are too wide and difficult to work with, most of these have a buzz and so does mine, the tone is DOGSHIT. the tone knobs barely to justice. i got mine in sunburst but i dont need to even point it out to the mods since this is suck a ass guitar. the neck and a decent sound, the middle pickup is the best and the humbucker is actually temu level bad. even temu has better mics. this is a really bad copy. in norway these go for 50 Bucks total at Finn. The Feedback on this is should be illigal. beacuse it can go apeshit without you knowing and dont even think about turing this thing on with an amp plugged in that will you regret for the rest of your life. this guitar deserves the woodchipper and nothing else, this does not deserved to be even remebered. the watermark sticker on the headstock is cheapy done, the tuning pegs are actually really steady supringly. the whammy bar bearly works. And you get a muffled cheap sound. never buy this. dont fall for the price. on distorion and overdrive the sound is bipolarpic and can feedback and makes really uncohearant and sharp sounds that you need watch out for. never buy this, use this if you want a guitar to smash in a gig without fearing backlash.

The Eastwood Hi-Fliers of the 20s. Best affordable P90 guitar in todays world.

I needed a guitar to help me with finding a sweet spot between a humbucker and a Strat and how most professionals have the P90 as a hidden easter egg of pickups. It's worth a lot for the money. I bought this at a outlet on Gear4music site in February. For about give or take 140 $. It's a pickup system i might need incase a sound or a vibe does not fit inn with the muscial arrangement. This guitar has a very nice Telecaster body, its hollow body gives it a more light edge. It has a volume knob and two tone knobs for each pickup with you can completely die down if you wish. The neck pickup is absolutely smashing. Its tasty and very punchy with a lot of warth, the middle toggle switch is a more EVH or SRV sound. Has a little more coherent sound but really good. And the brigde is fine, its a C++ but not a B-. Just really tight and boring, and kinda naked. Not my thing but you can play and people wont tell the difference. Its all about the fingers. The fretwork is accurate and good but the necks might have problem with the middle strings and it can buzz or just not play even when intonation is done. 120$ bill for service at my local guitar store. The tune pegs might be pointy and sharp. But the design looks standardalone, individualistic and cool. A mix of New and old money style guitars. With a pointy metal headish headstock. The colours go really nice. The black one is way more metalhead vibe. The white looks like you are playing a a guitar of its own. This is really affordable bugdet guitar that has swag and style in mind. You can tune the pickups easy and the playing is so good. No stuck and sticky neck, and if you just sand the headstock it's just a really good guitar done by Subzero. Witch is surprising that is is the new catalog guitars, people have no idea how good things are now by options. Works well on effects and distortion and has a warm neck sound and a shivering punchy cheap brigde sound. Not bad at all. Cleans are just fantastic. These are no longer made by Subzero but G4M with made the design somehow even uglier. But atleast you can get the same piece of wood. overall just a bloody well great guitar and "alot for the money" as my guitar tech said. This ls one of the few guitars that mades me deliberately want to use the middle switch of my guitar. Very few do that.

All you need

This i used during Set 2023 - May 2024. Its a really really good amp. Has a lot of features and plays fantastic. Its a good amp to use with pedals, its a more warm sound and its not at all bad.

This thing caught fire when I picked it up

I used a bit here and there. It had a pleasant sound but it's not solid. I did really like it but this a donner. I had 3 functions with a lot of variations. Nice colour. But I never see them anymore.

People would have killed for his bass in the 50s and 60s. Now it's just a daily commodity

It's very big, plays good but there are better basses out here, my mom bought this for me too seems every got this guitar that way. This bass has a lot of kick and life. If anyone had this or simmilar cheap guitars made for them 50 - 70 years ago this would have been good. Now it's just meh... bass. I have never seen anymore I know wanting to roll with this bass and just scrub It off and keep fildeling with their jazz bass. It's really nice and looks pleasing but is just not there. I tried to play along to but I'm not vibing with it. If resources and times where scarce this could have been it but it's just a metafor for why nobody really uses these and sell for like 80 dollars used.

If you know you are never going to get ridiculously famous; buy this.

We all have that rock'n'roll fase in our lives. I think that this is a really solid guitar. The only problem being the brigde pickup being and sounding way to cheap. Otherwise it's a really nice fretted and innovated guitar. Cheap too. A nice body so it looks like a mustang. The jack might be a bit grippy and tight so be careful since it does not want to let go. But what it's priced it's a nice starter and it's all you need really, the other is just the fingers and actual talent and skill.

Good but useless against gigs.

Bass is too short, the amp does not work with the drummer unless you mic this. It has really good cleans and a very cool Wah like option, it has really good sounds and options. And is the closest you can afford to a twin reverb. Got this used for 40 dollars. It's really good. Not that heavy. Has a handle for carrying, has remote controller. The setting are a bit messy. But cleans are good, distortions works great and it has good sound overall. Best bedroom guitarist amp you can have. A bit digital sound.

Rock'n'roll, My Hearings' gone.

This is a really, the best amp to ever exist. The sound richness, the many great artist who used these. From John Lennon to Kurt Cobain, almost everyone you can think of has one laying around is told to buy one to be even taken serious as an artist. But it has a few flaws which I thing is worthy to put out. straight to the point, it does not have a headphone jack at all, and it does not even have a switch to lower this God awfully loud amp. The new reissue ones are kinda better for modern day guitarists. But first thing you need to do if you are a bedroom guitarist is change the speakers, add a plate or mod a headphone jack. Even on 3 its near deafening and your room shakes. The positives are that it has normal section and a vibrato section( witch almost everybody uses) it has alot of kick and bass, this is all you need to play live, maybe even on studio. Monster of an amp and sound isn't like any other, i just wish they made this more tiny and commercially available like a small but tone rich priceton to the reverb deluxe amps, then everbody could have fair playing ground. It has a remote to and reverb and sound is the best I've ever heard, it's really the best. They are a big heavy amps but you can limp it across places.

This thing is Tiny but is LOUD. These never Sell.

Got this Amp on a Bundle, this one has cigarettes smell all over it. The AC108 looks reasonably tiny, it's shaped like a 15 liter water tank. But don't let this little thing do you any worse, it has a Gain knob and two buttons to change sounds, I has Treble, Bass, Master Volume. A CD input? A headphone jack(mine was used as an ashtray) and input. Soundwise even on 4 this is a beast that begs to eat up your ears hair cells wherever it goes. Only use this thing if you are stuck in a venue or consert where where is not other alternatives. This is way to loud, not that much Bass on it. And it's way too sharp. For just one speaker is one of those types of Amps, nvm that it's a tube amp it's just not good. Buy a priceton or a small Marshall this is not a good amp and i see them all the time and they never sell even for 10 dollars. Need to wear head mufflers and plugs when this thing was on 7.... not even joking. Just don't.

Moms: buy this for your kids

This is a really good started amp, it's not terribly loud, you can even take in with you on camping or cabin trips since it's battery powered. It comes with a built in Delay/Reverb with a timer. Has a Gain, EQ and Vol knob. Simply practical. Has headphone jack and a jack for input so you use it as a speaker system. I Has bloody Bluetooth, what more can you ask for?. It's so good, even works as a interface or you can plug your amps on for headphones or low vol. Guitar sounds fine and you can use pedals on it too. Would recommend practicing on this 24/7. This is fantastic. Only complaint I have is the battery's and it does not turn off by itself so if your lad Is drunk at a party say goodbye to a good 6 batteries AA. Turn it off and it can last a long time.

Hidden Gem by fender. The Bad Monkey of Fender Amps

This is all you need as hobbist. What I really love about this and kiss it every morning, is the Turing on feature, it warms up and you can use those 7 seconds to warn you from any upcoming noise or pedals haunting you. I like the 14 or so features and the effects built inn, the speaker does not play that loud and rarely can if ever do some noise trauma at all, it has a lot of this and you can get a million Diffrent sounds with this. One con is that there is no headphone jack, only a input in, and no effects loop. Just a really missed opertunity. But this sounds great and records amazingly well. I would say this is a bad monkey by digitech when it comes to fender Amps. Get this if you are a beginner.

Use this and have a another noise gate backup please

This won't save your day if you do mostly music with distortion or overdrives. This you need to but it on 8 and just put a tape over it and that might save your hearing, is a very obnoxious and annoying pedal but it's very useful and demanding sometimes. Since it have a mute switch it's really helpful for emergency situations if you ever play like an idiot or drunk and the drummer of course tells you to crank the volume up to max. This have a great reduction and sort of makes a nice blend and can just make playing and interluding more practical and useful. So just in case buy a second noise gate for this one if it f up. I liked the ability to hook up multiple Jack's and stuff and these pedals should be EU mandatory for musicians so people don't do stupid stuff with their geae, or have it built inn amp. It's great at fixing simple feedback but distortred feedback it does not repent. That's why I'm giving it a 3.

The Curmudgeon pedal

It's really a dizzy sound it, it kinda sound and feels like your spinning on a office chair, and snorring. It gets really boring really quick, you use this pedal for 2 days and then you just tuck it in the cabinet since it's that much. It has a nice light and two functions. Kurt cobain used this on the song Curmudgeon and it's really the whole pedal in a nutshell. It's fun but don't take this pedal seriously, it's the first ever meme pedal. Made for laughs.

Old but Gold.

This is a fun pedal to use. This is an improved version of the OG phasor. It's more of its own thing, the sound. It's like they added a pitch of salt on it. One bad thing is that the plastic on these EHXs get so old that the break easily since they where Never ment to survive 50+ years of rock and roll. If you like the phasor but this too if you want the sound.

Really good

I used this and it does a good job. Just a knob and dial it simple as that. Really good standalone sound. Classic. Perfect. One thing I don't get is that the batteries drain on these things really easily. The older pedals like these don't have a light or show that it's on. But yeah love this thing.

This plays so good it feels illegal to own.

This chorus pedal was something I got when bought the DS-2. It sounds good. Almost too good. It has this 70- 80s sound to it that kinda has its own style to it, sounds like im playing though a Rickenbacker. I like to play on this. If you tape over it and play it nobody can really even call out that it's a Chinese pedal. These pedals are good if you just need a Effect but don't make these you're whole thing.
