Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2022
Aside from a very hard to notice, very small finish crack at the neck joint mine is flawless. There's no fret sprout and the ends are dressed well enough for this price point. I even like the tuners well enough that I feel no need to change them.
Action was set just a touch high at 2.5 mm, but a quarter turn on each bridge saddle dropped them to 1.6 mm with no fret buzz. Intonation is spot on with no need to adjust.
If I have one small complaint it's that it doesn't balance well on my knee, which is probably due to the thin body with normal neck and headstock.
This is a fantastic instrument for the price that I'd recommend to anyone, not just beginners.
I lucked out and got one with a lot of birdseye figuring in the neck.
I got it to mod it and the cost of the guitar and the mods was about equal to the cost of a classic vibe jazzmaster.
My only real gripe with the guitar is the whammy bar hangs right over the control knobs, so you have to reach around it. The output jack feels like it doesn't have a lot of retention force, either. These are the only reasons for the 4 stars instead of 5
