      Did you have any problem with fret buzz?

      ​@@SarahJane-rh3ouThe guitar does buzz a little more than others but still playable. I took it to my local PMT and that's what the Guitar repair guy said. The guy even said that's a problem with all guitars, some buzzing more than others. Check if all the frets are level with and old card that you dont use. Mine has one fret a tad bit higher but its good.
      My guitar had the problem of having the nut too low giving me a buzz on open string, so I put a rectangular piece of paper and put it underneath the bridge. The slot for the high e string was cut too wide, which made the e string sound like a sitar, just put a tiny bit of paper in that slot it should be fine.
      Mostly its just set up. Be sure to set the string height to your liking. The neck should be almost straight but with a slight bend so you have a bit more gap below the 8th fret. Don't push the truss rod to the extreme bends though, or you will get a low pitched buzz from the neck and truss rod.
      The one thing that could be better are the pickups. At the PMT store I tried a distortion pedal on an amp, and the guitar just has extreme feedback. It doesnt work. A workaround though would be to get an amp with built in distortion. Generally its much better for clean sounds than distortion, sounds pristine with a chorus pedal.
      If you're still unsure, just get it to your nearest guitar store that does maintenance. But mostly its just setup, they are very good guitars for their value.

    It's all about the neck IMO. A comfortable neck makes all the difference in the world.
    Good deal for a beginner since most people give up when they realize the practice involved in getting good.

    • @XMX.Italian-Gamer
      @XMX.Italian-Gamer 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Sorry for being 3 months late but I'll explain on my knowledge, so the cheap neck might be general wood or cheap wood with poorly finished sides and edge and more wider I think while on other hand, the expensive neck which is opposite of cheap one like the premium wood or expensive and with nicely finished design around sides and edges and more thinner neck. That's all I know

    • @kkppsx4122
      @kkppsx4122 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Basically, a cheap neck cant withstand things a non-cheap one can. Such as neck bends, a little fall or bang, and cheap necks dont maintain their shape as well because necks have a bar inside, and generally that keeps the shape.

    If your main issues are light strings and poor setup, that's not a lot of criticism given both can easily be changed. My gibsom LP came practically unplayable with a high nut that made everything a quarter tone too high on first fret. After a good setup it's amazing. Didn't even come with an amp or Capo... Go Donner.

      I just got a guitar and amp on Walmart for $63. Not a very appealing color, but if I decide the learning curve is too long I can give it to my grandchildren.
      These young guys doing the reviews, they pump up the distortion then tell us the sound isn't great. How would they know? If they wanna know what the guitar sounds like they should play Telstar or Apache.
      $8 worth of strings and 45 minutes of intonation and adjusting the neck is not that much to ask in return for saving $100 - $200.
      Btw,I got a new aiyima stereo amp at Walmart for $32 and a used pair of Panasonic bt22-lr for $75, a couple 1/4 to RCA adaptors and I have a very nice two channel guitar amp. I dunno why everyone thinks they have to use a full range 6" or 8" guitar speaker and some seriously questionable Chinese amplification to practice.
