Review: Sweet guitar - This guitar is excellent for the price!
Review: Finally, a low cost but quality Electric Guitar - I love this guitar. I never understood the "pay $3000 for a guitar, and get the same sound" mentality. I'm a beginner. So I first went to look at these at Guitar Center. One of the staff is a great guitar player, so he pulled a US model similar in all ways except the neck was thicker. He made that guitar sing and it was sweet. He then took this same model, plugged it in and there was nearly no difference is sound. I only say nearly because there was some low E string buzz on the frets. Properly tuned, and adjusted to lift Low E up a tad and you'd be hard pressed to hear the difference. The US made model was $1700 used, close to $2000 new. They even had the same gorgeous red paint. I ordered this right away. I didn't want a used one. This came a full two days earlier than expected and I'm happy as can be. Because this neck is thinner, it fits my hands much better, or rather my hands fit the neck better. Now with a proper guitar, I'm quickly learning to play. The upgrade recommendations I was given was to replace the passive pickups with active pickups, because I'm a huge metal head. But, I'd like to get more comfortable playing stuff with a clean sound before I try shredding. For that, I'll just buy another and put active pickups on it. Maybe I'll get a black or green model for that. But if you're looking for an inexpensive electric guitar, but not cheaply made, this is a great buy. There have been some, though few, complaints about the fret heights or being rough and sticking over the edge of the fretboard. Just exchange it though desertcart. I do recommend buying good cables. Cheap cables will give you a ground hum and you'll thing it's the guitar. It's the cable. I also recommend buying a stand or hanging hooks. I bought the desertcart Basics bass and guitar stand and it's great, but also low cost without being cheap. I would highly recommend this guitar to both beginners and experts alike and UP THE IRONS! \m/

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This guitar is great
*by J***Y on October 28, 2025*

I am learning guitar, and have bought several “beginner” level guitars, to find the most comfortable one for me, and this one blows the rest away. It sounds great, but really, for me, the neck on these Jacksons is the most comfortable I’ve held.
