    from: Thomann, origin, probably China
    3 vintage bridge saddles, I bought a separate, six adjustable saddles, ropes traversing.
    I also bought a kit for remote microphones hot Wilkinson, the bushings, I was hesitant to change the mechanical direct by fender, I will see
    the rest: basswood body in two parts, well shaped, neat knockouts, round nickel frets fully inserted, although filed, nothing to say.
    the electronic part: when I set all (though it is pre-wired) nothing worked, no sound at all. as the user guide is in German ...

    so I found on the net connections of a standard TV, I just soldered to the plate that I had and I just rewired and it works!
    The potentiometers are still "on / off"

    UTILIZATION

    thick neck, but that suits me (I have a Gibson SG, I'm not out of place)
    once settled the action, harmonics, guitar sounds like a TV, it slams, it's clear, sharp, well there are characteristic twang is what I wanted. ergonomics: it's a TV, it's heavy (compared to my SG)
    the sound is very accurate.

    SOUNDS

    the sounds range from crystal to overdrive, after distortion is not great.
    I currently play with a Fender G in December, I prefer the sounds clean and it does

    OVERALL OPINION

    the advice I give is that it's a nice kit to have fun, well done, but I think we should turn all the hardware (mechanical potentiometers, strings, bridge ...) and all replaced by the adaptation of best quality.
    with that for 150 euros, I have a good TV that is well worth a squier. and it was I who did it (4 coats of green lagoon, six coats of varnish), some stickers. look fabulous, my son wants the same!

    Amazing

    Well take a short introduction, we therefore have is a guitar-yourself kit (no it's not Ikea). Everything is provided in the kit, to the ropes.
    The mounted in itself should take 1 hour to break everything and even taking his temps.c is very simple.
    The head of the handle is particularly ugly, therefore against it took me a little time to redraw, sanded etc ...
    All is well cut, the handle fits perfectly in the corps.Un lick of paint bomb everything and hop on a guitar! Short to mount no problem!
    The adjustment took longer to make it ring true ... But I guess it's only natural, wood is still probably work well (my knowledge is only limited violin!)

    UTILIZATION

    So we now have a guitar for 68 euro + 12 euro spray paint + 10 euro vernis.Et what it's worth a shovel at this price?

    Amazing! the handle is very nice, a bit flatter than a True telecaster.Elle is relatively heavy (well I am a sissy ..). No really, we walk on the handle without too much trouble (after the long period of adjustment park before it's a bit scary).
    The accuracy depends on the quality of your movie I guess ... I'm not too badly, but hey it's still a low-end loader.
    Mechanics are terrible.

    SOUNDS

    No miracle at this price, and with these pickups Harley Benton Chinese Mekong.
    I tried it on a fender hot rod deluxe, attention is far from being disgusting and unusable but little interest.
    on the other hand I've also used at home, on my Line 6 TonePort to work quietly at home, and there's cool bah sound is good, nice guitar playing is frankly more than that significant.
    A little research we find ourselves almost to say, it sounds like ho fucking tv here!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have clearly not bought this guitar to play in groups etc, it was mainly to please me to get my shovel and paint me même.Au end I end up with a new guitar within 100 euro.Je am than satisfied, like a little fun!
    Surely I will be tempted by a homemade SG!


    And then it was I who did it!
