Joseph GuzmanJoseph Guzman: Been passively looking around for a Semi-Hollowbody for some time now and this bcp guitar popped up for a very decent price, so I went for it.
Not expecting a Gretch, but it ain't a bad guitar. Finish is excellent with just one minor blemish and very light weight. The accent cream edging looks nice and blends in well with no ridging. Made in March 2022.
The Strap is very sub-basic and a more substantial one is required. The strings need to be changed, as they soil the fingertips with residue and sound a bit flat. New strings will make this a whole different instrument. Although the tuners do work well. The frets for the most part, are good...except for the high "E" side, where some fretwork is necessary, catching cleaning cloths and feel the ends on the fingertips, but not a major flaw for the price. (I have had worse on more expensive instruments.) The pearl inlays are big "Simulated?" Mother of Pearl. The Neck wood needed hydration, (a personal preference.)
It plays very well and the neck is silky smooth as your palm glides over the back. The nut is plastic, but does the job. It was not necessary to adjust the truss rod, with the strings being a decent...

yvonne: Very nice guitar for the price with extra strings,a hook up chord,a tuner,picks,a cleaning cloth,case and instructions about your pickups,etc.The guitar itself had a very tiny speck about an 1/8 of an inch in the pickboard but nothing to groan about. It is beautiful and plays nice. Bar chords seem easier to play on this than regular chords but I have no playing fingers that I had years ago.It is high too which isn't as comfortable as smaller guitars but that's just something that new players may not realize as I hadn't. I was very unhappy with the delivery as it could have easily been stolen and I had left instructions about the drop off.The guitar itself plays very nice. I truly couldn't afford this but it may help with some difficult personaul setbacks,though it's looking like a lot of effort just to play things I could easily play.Steel strings take some getting use to after years of not touching a guitar. With all of the accessories,this guitar was thankfully worth the savings it took to get it.Even a very cheap small fender amp turned out to be very strong and nice with this guitar.

YelenaYelena: Good: pots, pups, neck, frets, fretboard, finish, binding, fretboard pearl inlay, action right out of the box.
So-so: tuners, some microphonic feedback on pups, but you can probably adjust the height of them. If you are a beginner to intermediate you literally don’t need to do anything to this guitar. It plays great.
Don’t listen to others, invest in this, at the time of this review it was $129. Excellent guitar, best value guitar you will find, especially being a Gibson ES-335 clone.
I would heavily recommend this to others, it’s an excellent product to add to your collection.

Stephen MeredithStephen Meredith: This is a sub-$200 335 Chinese clone. Do not go into it expecting $1,000+ quality & you won’t be disappointed. The finish is GREAT! The pots & pickups are cheap. The tuners are clunky. But they all work. I will be changing them all out when I do a proper setup. The action was really good right out of the box. Frets we’re filed on ends and smooth. Fretboard was very dry. I only played for 15 minutes & haven’t had time to do a proper setup, so I can’t speak to the total quality yet. There is buzz from the low E, A, & D strings. Not sure yet if it’s from the bridge & saddle, nut, cheap strings, or neck bow until I do a full job on it.
Is this guitar playable right out of the box? YES!
I tuned it quickly, plugged into an amp with a little gain, & rocked out to Johnny B Goode! With a few upgrades this has potential to rival big brand hollow body guitars. I’m giving this a 5 out of 5 based on the price. Price aside, if compared to all other brands, with a vintage $4,000+ Gibson 335 being a 5 out of 5, I’d give this a 2.5 out of 5 - with it just needing mechanical upgrades to the same quality as a Gibson or even an epiphone to be...
