beginner/amateur guitarist from TN, I have too many guitars for my skill level —— PSA: speakers are what really matters for tone, anyone who says tone is in the fingers, the pickups, or the wood is either ignorant or trying to sell you something

These are great headphones. The sound quality is clearer than any other headphones I've owned, and the noise cancelling is phenomenal. Not sure what else to say about their quality. Despite these great attributes, I've find myself questioning whether or not they are worth the price. I feel like you could get similar, or maybe even *better* headphones for far less of a price. I would recommend seeking out a cheaper alternative.

I'm almost 100% sure I would have a different impression of this guitar if it were new. I got mine used. It became obvious quickly that, while there weren't *too* many scratches or paint chips, it was **HEAVILY** used. The tremolo system was shot to hell, and even the locking tuners didn't keep it in tune for long (even though I put new strings on it). I thought it was going out of tune just because I was being a little aggressive with the whammy bar initially, but soon came to the conclusion that it was probably because of the instrument's age and previous owner. Whoever owned this thing before me **REALLY** liked it. In terms of playability and feel, however, this guitar is great. It's everything one could possibly want in a seven-string. My fingers glide across the fretboard with ease, and bending is not hard at all on this guitar. Just make sure, if you want to buy one of these, that you get it new or newer, because mine takes ten minutes to tune and stays in tune for less time than even that.
My biggest regret when it comes to guitar playing is selling this pedal. Top-tier distortion.
It worked fine for the first few days, but then it started disconnecting every few minutes even though nothing was happening to the actual connection. My guitar teacher had one and it started doing the same for him.
