« Regent / Guyatone Electric Guitar »

Published on 04/27/02 at 15:00
EBAY! for around 137 bucks.

This guitar plays very well for something under 150. I like the whole vintage look, and the unique aluminum pickguards. The tone is awesome! The bridge humbucker sounds great when you hook it up to some overdrive pedal. The neck pickup is the cleanest I've ever heard! It sounds better than the ones on a gibson!

I get feedback due to the fretboard mixed with pickups. The interior electrics seem to cut off at times. I will get it looked at. The switch that changes from bridge to neck pickups is somewhat loose and tends to switch around while playing.

I love the whole look of the guitar. It's a nice natural sunburst/tobacco color, and the humbuckers look great. Everything on the guitar is vintage, and looks very different. The whole thing is built sturdily, and it's always tuned correctly, no matter how many times you hit the headstock against something.

Good for intermediates. Emo rocks!
