    A student of mine got one and the build quality is honestly fantastic…
    The only problem is that the high E string’s intonation is a bit off but the rest of the strings are fine

    • @zetsun0
      @zetsun0 Рік тому

      @@KRSinDUB hi, I did receive it, the guitar itself is very good, playability and versatility is excellent, just some small QC issues, which are only noticeable if you're looking for them, like rough paint finishes inside the pickup/bridge holes and slight discoloration of the headstock compared to the body. Then again, very small stuff. Supposedly Tim is launching a prestige version of the guitar. If you want to spend a bit more I'd probably go with it just to guarantee the QC is immaculate, but otherwise the tod10 is a solic option as well. Just ask Thomann for a extra QC check (costs 70€) and they'll guarantee everything is working as expected

      its a silicone ring. But a lot of players wear metal rings and enjoy the "relic" it shows on the neck over time. To each their own!

    Yep, my bridge detached. Happened to me after 6 days. It was just sitting on a guitar stand when I heard a loud ripping and string popping sound. Looked over to see the bridge dangling. It completely detached from the body. Probably weak or not enough glue. However the problem is that because the pickup goes through the bridge, it rips the pickup out as well. You can re-glue the bridge, but getting the pickup back in properly so that it functions correctly was the issue. Ended up returning it. Now waiting for a replacement. Was told I might not get a replacement until September! 😭 Guitar was great until that happened. Hopefully future orders will have resolved this issue.
