Highlights
Quality
The finish is outstanding, and the electronics are sound.
Very good quality and plays very nice.
The frets needed a good polishing, but completely passable without any levelling/crowning work.
The bridge pickup is pinched in crooked back high front low so no adjust top to bottom and its the green one
Price
At $229 is is still an outstanding value for the money and i highly recommend it
This a super guitar for the money!
At 200 dollars this guitar was a steal.
If i did not know how much i paid for this guitar i would say it was worth at least three times the price.
Shipping
Mine had shipping and handling damage that made me send it back.
Received and connected through spark, tuned, tried it.
Also, the seller shipped it and it arrived 7 days early.
It was here jet fast in 2 days.
Packaging/appearance
Packaging could have been better, but at least it arrived undamaged.
The delivery was not the best, the box was pretty beat up, but the guitar was wrapped properly so no damage.
Competitiveness
Compared to the grx and gio this ax is a way better deal, plays,looks, and sounds better.
This guitar not only rivals my gibby sg but my self-built les paul and es-335.
And this guitar is very comparable in sound to les.
The sg puts the neck pickup back toward the bridge like a 24 fret guitar, providing a more midrange sound.
