I didn't know what to expect; I never had an electric guitar before. When the package arrived and I set it up ;I was more than satisfied. It looks great and the sound is awesome,evenfor a beginner.

Complete Junk

2008-05-06
I can't believe anyone gives this guitar more than one star. These pieces of junk offer only low price and nothing else. The neck on mine was twisted in two spots. The thing wouldn't hold a tune. The knobs do very little to affect the sound. The strings are made of some material that is foreign to me, a player of 20 years. The gig bag looks like it was made from a Hefty cinch sack. The amp is about as powerful as a transistor radio. The "guitar" is little more than a toy.

If you're buying this for your kids, please, take my advice, and don't do it. They will get frustrated with this piece of junk soon after picking it up and never touch it again. Many Chinese made guitars are good for beginners. Some are good enough to keep even intermediate players happy. This is not one of them. This "guitar" is good for nothing but firewood.

Terrible company - subpar product

2008-04-26
The good: The guitar looks pretty. Like most, I didn't get the exact color pictured, but I liked it anyway.
The bad: Just after 30 days of ownership (conveniently after the return period), a crack developed in the neck.
The worst: Austin Bazaar is a company that should just plain be put out of business for their poor customer service. When I contacted them to ask about replacement, they referred to the "no returns after 30 days" policy. When I repeatedly tried to email for support on how to go about getting the guitar fixed or asked if it was a normal occurence, my emails went ignored. I tried the customer service phone number and was referred straight to email, couldn't even speak to a human. Way to stand by your product!

If you want an inexpensive instrument, I'd recommend buying a quality used instrument. AVOID AUSTIN BAZAAR!

NICE LOOK

MY SON LOVES THE GUITAR BUT, HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO PLAY YET BECAUSE EVERYTIME YOU TRY AND TUNE IT, THE STRINGS BREAK, LIKE THE KNOBS ARE SHARP AND ARE CUTTING THE STRING. CAN U ADVISE ME WHAT TO DO?

Not a Good Guitar

2007-12-22
I got this guitar and it worked ok for about 3 months. After 3 months, it wouldn't work when I pluuged it into the amp. I thought that the amp was just broken until my cousin tried his guitar with it and it worked and sounded perfect. I was very dissapointed. Now I am buying a gibson epoch for less the money and it will be a better value I'm sure.

pretty good beginner guitar

2006-09-10
this gutiar was my first one and its pretty good no really good for the price.

pros: plays awesome for a 80 dollar guitar, you can play mostly anything on it, very light which is good for beginners, the tuners and nut hold the tune pretty good

cons: the nut was cracked when i got it but wasnt falling apart, when i put heavier (fatter) strings on the nut cracked and parts fell off but enough didn't fall off to affect the playability, the tuners dont hold the tune very good after about a year of use, the tremolo arm doesnt work very well, the pickup's buzz a lot, when u try to use the bridge pickup alone (with the 5 way pickup selector) it's basically like turning the volume off which is kinda good and bad, the tone knobs dont really work, the amp the comes with is the one in the first picture, not the second one.

all in all its a really good guitar for a beginner but i wouldnt recommend it at all if you're an intermediate or expert player. all the cons are mostly minor problems, this guitar has lasted me 1.5 years so its pretty good.
