ELECTRIC GUITAR PACK ACCSSTARCASTER BY FENDER STRAT Review

ELECTRIC GUITAR PACK ACCSSTARCASTER BY FENDER STRAT
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
There is no sense in not being honest, for how much you end up paying, you will feel very satisfied with this product.I've been abusing this gear for about 6 months and have only run into two problems.The amp to guitar cable just stopped working.Not too big of a deal, I ended up just buying a Monster brand cable 12ft for about $18 including shipping from Amazon and have been outstandingly pleased with the quality.The only other issue has been the cheap quality of the tremelo bar as it broke off inside of my bridge.This is a much harder fix, but this is a fairly minor issue once you start picking up more techinques on how to play (visit [...] it has like 300,000 free tabs and free video lessons on how to play... the DVD provided was okay but is eclipsed by this site).
Other than that, this is a nice little guitar.The fretboard feels great (the intonation on the upper frets seem a bit off but I hear this is pretty normal anyway) and the strings given hold up well for a good sound.The tuning heads hold nicely as well (I had a week were I played bout 5-6 hours a day pretty hard and I only lost bout a quarter note on each string).Not too many options with the amp, but playing around with it some and the pick-up selector can give amazing sounds all things considering.If you are worried that this little amp can't get loud, fear not.For at home use with OverDrive on, you can bug quite a few people in your home more than likely at level 2 volume (I play a bit less than 1 typically) and it goes up to level 10 volume!
Overall, this is well worth the money.Perhaps this gear is not the best suited for gigging, but that isn't what you should be buying a starter kit for anyway now is it? For anyone that wants to learn guitar with some cool sounds (acoustic can get old) this is probably the best $[...] (after shipping) or so dollars you can spend!

Debutante Rock Candy Guitar, Cosmic Purple Review

Debutante Rock Candy Guitar, Cosmic Purple
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This guitar is extremely solid, the tone is awesome, and the color is exceptional. I purchased this guitar for my 5 year old daughter since she is really involved with the Disney stars like most kids her age. The Daisy Rock brand is getting to be a fairly recognizable and respectable name and since it's endorsed by artists like Avril Lavigne, and Miley Cyrus I figured it would be something she would enjoy! She absolutely loves it and obviously I know a 5 year old would love anything you give them but her face really did light up when she saw it. I was extremely surprised when I started to play it, especially since the pickups, from what I understand, are the daisy rock brand and they sound great!

Please don't be fooled by other reviewers of this guitar. I browsed a few of the reviews for the debutante series and there were a few misleading such as the customer who had a string break and he needs to "tighten" the rest of the strings so it doesn't happen again.Strings break, it should not bring down the quality of the guitar since it has nothing to do with it.

I have been playing guitar for at least 5 years now and own 4 guitars, all of which are high end. I have played telecasters, les pauls, sgs, you name it.This really is a nice guitar for any girl looking to get into guitars so don't pass it up!

Squier by Fender Bronco Bass, Black Review

Squier by Fender Bronco Bass, Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had this bass for about 3 years now, and I must say, it's a very sturdy, and easy to use bass.you have beginners who have tempers?? well get this for sure!!It's a short-necked bass, so it makes it easier to play for smaller people.I got mine used and the only problems with it were loose connections in the inside, and a stripped screw on the pickup.I fixed both of those, and it sounds great!!

It's definately not for pros though, if you have a lot of experience in bass playing, then this probably isn't for you.Distortion isn't great either; it has one coil, and it doesn't handle distortion very well...

All in all, this is an excellent bass, and it is a great starter bass too...

Product Description:

The Squier Bronco Bass is great for guitarists who occasionally need a bass, younger beginners, smaller players, or for anyone who likes the feel of a short-scale (30") bass. It tunes easily and sounds full and rich, thanks to its single-coil pickup, maple neck, die-cast tuners and solid agathis body.

Oscar Schmidt OG2CETR Dreadnought Acoustic Electric Guitar Review

Oscar Schmidt OG2CETR Dreadnought Acoustic Electric Guitar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am currently happy with this item, but there are some things you must first know about it:

1. The 9V battery for the pickup is only accessible through the small sound hole. You must loosen and spread the strings to get to it. The battery had fallen off during shipping and was rattling around in the body when I got it, but no damage was done.

2. The pickup seems to be just a microphone attached to the bridge area inside the body. When I play and I get too close to my amp or too loud, I get loud feedback. If I shout at the bridge, I can hear my voice a bit. Sometimes when shifting the body in my hands or sliding my fingers up the factory strings, I can hear it on the amp. This, however, is only at high volumes. Playing at a reasonable volume, however, it sounds fine. Just don't expect to play a loud gig with this.

3. The strings that came with it were terrible, and they came factory installed in a really slipshod fashion. Essentially, they had tied a knot at the end of the string, fed it through the bridge hole, and wound it around the peg. When I tried to tune the high string, it kept pulling through the hole. I went and bought a set of Martin crystal strings and they look, feel and play much better. That also eliminated the sound I heard on the pickup when sliding my fingers up the strings. I also strung them up by using the over, under, over, under method common to classical guitar stringing. I have also read a suggestion that using a different, larger knot will also solve the problem. I did not try that.

Since I have gone through these three items, I have been playing it for two evenings straight and have no other problems not common to all ukuleles. Yes, you will need to tune it every 5 minutes for the first few hours of play, the strings will settle in after you've tuned it a couple dozen times. This is normal.

Dean Edge 09 Bass, Mahogany Finish Review

Dean Edge 09 Bass, Mahogany Finish
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been learning to play bass with this model for about a year and a half, and I enjoy it thoroughly.It's lighter than some instruments, but still has enough mass that it has a good tone.The neck is maybe not as slender as some fancier, faster basses, but it's still quite comfortable.It stays in tune well, and I've never had any troubles with the knobs or electronics.

With only a single pickup, and just knobs for volume and treble, you don't have much flexibility in sound.If you're just learning or playing for fun, this isn't much of an issue.The bass sounds great for a variety of jazz, blues and rock.One person I play with thinks the tone from this bass is nicer than one of his that cost about eight times as much.

A couple of other thoughts... You'll want to find a local guitar store to help you make adjustments periodically (and perhaps with initial setup), or learn to do it yourself.I use a Behringer practice amp, and it's partially responsible for the good tone that I seem to get.Finally, I rarely use a pick - if that's more your style, the lack of a pick guard might be an issue for you.

Product Description:
It is often said the "beauty is skin deep," but the Dean Edge Bass is clearly and exception. While beauty was the inspiration, we put every bit of our 20-plus years of design experience into these models. We started with a body styled and contoured for comfort, and to make them lighter we used choice basswood. The maple necks were profiled to be faster and sleeker than virtually all others. We designed a "uniquely Dean" custom neck joint and heel along with our asymmetrical four-bolt pattern, creating uninterrupted access all the way up the two octave neck. The Edge Bass is offered in four, five and six string models. Experience one of the world's finest basses. E09 M is the most affordable in the Edge Line.

Dean Edge 09 Bass, Classic Black Review

Dean Edge 09 Bass, Classic Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this bass a few months ago. It was so beautiful coming out of the box and seemed to play great. I only have one problem which I have no idea how this could happen. I went to tune it to standard (EADG). All was right except the A string which I can't get past a C sharp. I suppose this could be fixed with string replacement, but I have not yet done so because I don't have extra money to go get strings. Otherwise this is a great bass for the price and makes for an amazing practice bass or one for a beginner. Or perhaps one for people who can't afford an amazing bass. *points to self*

Saga TC-10 T Style Electric Guitar Kit Review

Saga TC-10 T Style Electric Guitar Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The beauty of Leo F's original electric guitar design is that anyone could assemble it's components into a finished electric guitar using hand tools, and basic mechanical skills. That makes kits based on his designs a great idea.

The more time you want to spend learning how to adjust and set up your guitar, the better playing instrument you'll be rewarded with.

I've been playing electric guitar for 30 years, and I did not find anything actually defective in this kit. The pickgaurd was slightly malformed, but it does not affect the playability in the slightest. The pickgaurd and tuners were a little cheap, and I chose to replace them, but they were certainly playable.

The rest of the components were of very high quality, as good or better than anything coming from Fender's Mexico plant. The body has an extra tummy contour on the back, similar to an "S" style guitar, and the bridge is a top loader, instead of Leo's string-thru design.

One area that will require a little more than basic skill and hand tools is shaping the peghead. If you choose to skip this labor intensive, not-for-the-squeamish step, you will be playing your new guitar with a comically large paddle shaped peghead :D

Considering the value for the money, the fun and learning of do-it-yourself, and the quality of the parts, I really wanted to give 5 stars... but the cheap tuners and deformed pickgaurd made it 4 stars.

I never contacted the vendor or Saga for a replacement pickgaurd, so I have no idea what their responsemight have been. I had already chosen to upgrade the pickgaurd in a different color.

Dean Custom Zone Bass, Nuclear Green Review

Dean Custom Zone Bass, Nuclear Green
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I found this bass on Musician's Friend and ordered it there originally; it had great reviews from an assortment of players and the nuclear green color looked amazing. I ended up canceling my order with MF because of just how popular this guitar is- They had to put a 30-day backorder notice on it.

I paid the extra to get Amazon to ship it sooner and it was well worth it! The green is even sharper in person. I have never seen an instrument this color before.

I have it plugged into my Fender 60w Rumble Bass amp and I get a really full sound. It's great, especially for the price! My complaints are minimal, especially for just how affordable this made-in-China guitar is. I have a small fret buzz that I'll probably be spending [...] bucks or so to fix and the jack is making my sound fuzz a wee bit. It's unnoticed when actually playing with another guitar, though (Yes, I checked! :) ). Keeping in mind you're only spending [...] bucks on a guitar, this bass' tone is GREAT.

It's solid, great-looking, and a wonderful size for a medium-sized player (I'm 5'5" and it's perfect). I love playing it and it's going to make a great impression on the stage.
