lol, hopefully you like it. You will probably have to adjust the string height where you want it... and a little bit of setup. I usually try to sell the review guitars. But I am keeping this one, I got a good one.
I wish there would have been Donner, Joyo, Chibsons, Bugera, Behringer, cheap solid state amps which sound 97% as good as tubes, etc etc when I was a teen back in the 70s. Damn.
Got one last week and changed the stock tuners to a set of Wilkinsons, which fit perfectly with no drilling required. Oiled the nut, restrung with Super Slinkys. It's a hot rod now.
Great presentation Hank. I can tell that you put a lot of thought and planning into making this video . If they keep on sending you stuff to review you will eventually be able to do videos like this straight off. First play on my guitar this Friday! 😀🎼🎸🐻🍩💚🐕 Later 🐊
My God the way you play that thing is enough to make anyone moist! 😆 But yeah I just ordered this exact guitar and I'm looking at all kinds of reviews on it and listening to how it sounds! So far I am very amazed and I can't wait until it arrives! You're really good bro!
@@Viviana-gh7ry I have 2 older guitar setup videos. They are probably bad, but they should show you what you need to know. th-cam.com/video/u8BTZhcgH70/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/9IQpTjaCOxA/w-d-xo.html
I bought the DST- 152 Sunburst Electric Guitar 🎸 and it set up straight out of the Box with the strings that came with it and stays in tune NP. Have bought some Ball Slinky strings 9-52 haven't put them on yet because it's playing good with the strings that came with it.
@@HankCoffey Oh Yeah, I bought the 21' long one and realize I could've went the next size down for size and space sake. what you get for the Buck is A win, win. the Bag....is very nice! I'm 64 and just had my 2nd Hip replacement A Month ago. So money is a little Tight right now. But I've had my eye on the Xavier LP550 and that Indio S style.....for A while. I have A Fender Tele. and A Washburn Acoustic that is at least 30 years old .
If you aren't afraid to order from Thomann Germany, check out their Harley Benton guitars. That's mostly what I personally play. I am being tempted by a Harley Benton Les Paul that has a Floyd Rose on it. Black, cream binding... lol
Very insightful! Would you be able to recommend some initial set-up tips apart from new strings? Like maybe lowering the action or using the Allen key to adjust some hyperparameters? I’m buying a guitar (DST-152) after a long time and want to maintain it properly from the start for longer guitar life!
Hi, The setup would be very similar to any Stratocaster setup. There are a few guitar setup videos on my channel, and a lot of setup videos on TH-cam. All I did to this guitar was lower the string saddles.
Out of the Donner guitars I've reviewed, this one is my favorite. For a Strat style guitar, I'd go with this one or a Fender Squier. If I were learning to play again, I'd want an Ibanez probably.
Hey, I won't be able to shoot a video for a few weeks. There is a saddle for each string. 2 allen screws per saddle. You raise and lower the saddles with these 2 allen screws.
yamaha pac 012 ile arasında kaldım hangisini tercih etmeliyim. yeni başlıyorum ve gitarla alakalı problemler yaşamak istemiyorum. fakat bütçemide düşünmem gerekiyor
This guitar I am playing in this video is great. That doesn't mean they all are. I would honestly trust the quality control of Yamaha over Donner. But you can get lemons at any time. Buying guitars online is gambling.
hey, i got this guitar but for some reason the mini amp won’t give out any sound. It’s plugged in and it turns on but it won’t give sound. Any idea why?
It comes with a small amplifier. I unbox the guitar at the beginning of the video. That shows everything it comes with. There is an Amazon link to the guitar also. That shows you everything.
Hi Heidy, I've reviewed a few Donners and I really like this one. But inexpensive guitars will need adjusting to play and sound good. This is called a setup. I lowered the strings on this guitar before doing this video. My honest opinion is a Ibanez or Fender Squier might be a better option in this price range. But, if you can set the guitar up yourself, this Donner package is great.
The Donner DST-152 is available here!

Chinese Donner 👍👍👍
Does the lever that appears in the image come?
Just snagged this exact guitar today for $90 at a pawn shop and glad to find this video teaching me all about it, thank you!
No problem, I still have this one. I like it.
Thank you for not using alllll overdrive/distortion. Demo as clean really is what shows the true tonee
I just bought one thanks to this video. THANK U LEGEND

So how do you like it so far? im on the verge of getting this exact model and i just need some more reviews to really believe its a good deal
I want to know how it's performing?
@@XPRT101MW3so did u get it was it worth it
I wish there would have been Donner, Joyo, Chibsons, Bugera, Behringer, cheap solid state amps which sound 97% as good as tubes, etc etc when I was a teen back in the 70s. Damn.
Amps sounded terrible all through the 90s also. Only the modded ones sounded decent.
Behringer make some pretty cool pedals that emulate the sounds of vintage tube amps
me too
this is the best review for this donner guitar, thanks 👍
Hey, thank you Carlos
Really thinking about purchasing one of these to learn how to guitar tech.
Got one last week and changed the stock tuners to a set of Wilkinsons, which fit perfectly with no drilling required. Oiled the nut, restrung with Super Slinkys. It's a hot rod now.
Nice man

lol, thanks man. Keep in mind that you will have to do some adjusting on it. I had to set this one up.
@@HankCoffey okay, noted!
Will do, my friend!
@@HankCoffeycan you do a video on how to set this one up please?

hard work pays off! 👏
Thanks Darrell! 🙏

Cool Joe! Thanks
Wishing to have 🤘

That is a Sharp looking S style! Donner def. Is some bang for your Buck ! Bought their pedal board last year.... Nicely made..... Nice review!!!
Thanks Frank! Yeah I reviewed their pedalboard on my channel also. It's pretty cool.

My daughter plays acoustic guitar, but I think she would have fun with an electric guitar. Do you have a recommendation for a guitar.

You're very good at guitar.
Thank you so much 🙂
I just ordered one too, can u mabye make a video on how to lower strings
Hey, I won't be able to shoot a video for a few weeks. There is a saddle for each string. 2 allen screws per saddle. You raise and lower the saddles with these 2 allen screws.

Does this amplifier can be setup to play glam metal(80s Hard Rock)?
The amplifier can sound many ways with different pedals. It is just a small practice amp.
@@HankCoffeyOh, I see. Thx👍
The one thing I will pick after playing for 3hrs straight is frets starting to scratch my fingers neck must of shrunk
hey, i got this guitar but for some reason the mini amp won’t give out any sound. It’s plugged in and it turns on but it won’t give sound. Any idea why?
Might be a factory defect. Missing solder joint, loose wire, bad jack, bad cable, could be a lot of stuff.
I have the same guitar but I don't understand how you change these beautiful sounds 😭 you can do a tutorial?😍
I use amp software. Try something like McRocklin Suite from Polychrome DSP.
Does the guitar have the sound for more rock music like nirvana or guns n roses
Yes, the humbucker pickup in the bridge sounds more for Rock music.
Good video
is it good for starting?
Yes, one of these or a Fender Squier. Ibanez/Jackson if you like rock/metal. 👍
Does I come with Jax cord
Yes
It didn’t come with a tremolo bar?
Yeah, subtitle in video says trem arm and tools are in the strap package. Towards the end of the video.
does this comes with a speaker
It comes with a small amplifier. I unbox the guitar at the beginning of the video. That shows everything it comes with. There is an Amazon link to the guitar also. That shows you everything.
As it attached in same amp?
I don't understand the question.
Could you recommend a donner guitar for me? I'm 14 and I can finally get a electric guitar but I don't know how to start
Hi Heidy, I've reviewed a few Donners and I really like this one. But inexpensive guitars will need adjusting to play and sound good. This is called a setup. I lowered the strings on this guitar before doing this video. My honest opinion is a Ibanez or Fender Squier might be a better option in this price range.

Im from india and i love that guitar but unfortunately donner doesn’t sale in india 💔🙂
Sorry to hear that.
alnico or ceramic in these?
I honestly don't know. I haven't had the pickgaurd off.
Heey is it good for rock and metal?
It's a Strat with a bridge humbucker... good for rock, there are better guitars for metal.
how long did it take to arrive after ordering it?
About 3 business days as long as it's in stock.
Bro i am poor can you give me one too cuz i am poor im not A beggar but i want it so badddd
