Trash


This was a bad one.

I am currently acquiring budget guitars to keep kids occupied & away from trouble after school hours. I chanced upon this online, was going for cheap so I bought it.

The instrument's neck was warped but the real nightmare- no truss rod for adjustments. Darn. The strings were corroded & a re-string revealed chipped nuts. Bridge pins won't stay put as well, kept popping out during tuning. Only 3 were functional. The tuners seemed OK till the low E was tuned- it stopped working after a few turns. 

Considering I would be spending more than the instrument's asking price to rectify the issues, this guitar was trashed.
