Questions & Answers

How do you describe those humbuckers? Can you tell me how big they are? How can I know what kind to get?

The g&amps are similar in size to the g&amps In general, all double humbuckers have about the same footprint, particularly those that come stock with Les Pauls and LTDs. The pickups are two wires and I don't know how well the windings are, but they sound

Thank you for taking the time to read my question. Can you tell me how much the product weighs? Thanks. ?

It should weigh 8 pounds for the Lp guitar, but the shipping package weighs 11 pounds. I appreciate it!

Would you be so kind as to describe the pickups that come with ?

China humbuckers are as cheap as chips. Rather than replacing the preamp with an epiphone, I put some epiphone probuckers in

Is it being shipped from what part of California?

South California will be the shipping destination for the product. I'd like to thank you for your interest.

All in all, it was okay
4/5

The product is a good one. It has a very easy to use interface. The part does not need to be soldered. I need directions, but no instructions are provided. It is possible to find lots of help online, My only complaint about the electronics was the way they were shipped. I would have appreciated some help on how to get started and where to get help. There was a bag of parts in the bag, and the bag had been As a result, parts were lost. As soon as it was put together, the front was painted. I had to sand the back a lot and prepare it for paint. I liked the pre-drilled screw holes. The neck had some imperfections, but it was still a good buy. It's not that big of a There was nothing to complain about, everything fit together nicely and the sound is excellent.

I'm so glad you found this! If you have the patience and knowledge to use this kit, it can be a great tool
5/5

You have an excellent neck and body. In addition to the electronics, everything appears to be in order. It is equivalent to the Epiphone or something similar. The finish of the gunstock was sealed with gunstock sealer (tru oil) and wax. I'm thrilled with how the maple top looks and am more than pleased with it. You have lots of sanding to do to make this kit look pretty, but that's exactly what it requires. I find the bridge to be okay, intonation seems good, and the right note It was a great purchase, and I plan on purchasing another one for a fall project. It's a pity that the directions are bad, but YouTube and Google will answer any questions or problems you may have.

Purchase this item at your own risk
3/5

Despite not having labels, the parts were shoved into a bag. It does not come with instructions on how to connect it to a power source. I have a hard time installing the hardware since the screw holes aren't straight. The veneer on the guitar was so thin that when you sand it, parts of the veneer come off since it is globbed around. It was impossible to stain the guitar properly without sanding it, but it is very hard to get the stain to stick. There are not all the parts included either, the tuners are missing the washers. In the box, there are also several seemingly random items. The pickups sound bad. I am growing increasingly frustrated with this poor quality as I assemble this they don't seem to even be able to separate the strings well. This purchase has been a mistake and I am seeking a refund.

There are some flaws in the Despite looking great, the veneer wasn't well glued to the wall
3/5

In order to burn it, I did so. In a nutshell, There was less than 1mm of thickness on the vaneer. The glue did not take hold in some spots, making it flimsy. The thin nature of the vaneer might also limit the ability to fix scratches on the vaneer. There are some areas of the guitar where the binding is not flush I can sand that down and fix it. The idea is there, I believe. In places where there are scratches on the vaneer, I am worried I will sand right through Despite its thinness, it is quite solid. It looks good, but yeah, there is a significant amount of warping on the instrument's face. The seller did post instructions for building via email if you are curious about how to get them. If you haven't received it yet, be sure to check your email. For the most part, the neck appears to be perfect.

For me, this is good enough! Putting this thing together was fun for me
4/5

That's the first one I've done. I learned a lot from this I had to buy a 3 way switch from Guitar Center since the other one was missing. It was a waste of time You'd have to buy a new 300-dollar guitar to compare. The more I get, the more I want. I love it!.

I found this product to be very good for the price and exactly what I needed
4/5

As of March 2020, I have just put this kit together. I bought it in June 2019 and put it together in March 2019. In fact, I bought the book to go to a music festival to get autographs last month, which is why I had to wait so long! You did a fantastic job on this! we do not have the option to add a picture) if you are familiar with guitars and have some basic woodworking and painting experience, you should be fine! There are no I found it to be quite easy to construct. A little more detail could be added to the instructions The pros and cons can be seen. Before going over the surface with black lacquer, I used primer to make it easier to see any imperfections. Spray cans were used to apply both primer and paint. Perfect was not what I was looking for I was not concerned because at this price and since I was mostly going to hang autographs on the wall, I didn't want to worry. It turned out to be a pretty good movie. How about this? There is not much to dislike about it! Playing it was easy. I assembled it, plugged it in, and turned it on. Honestly, that's better than purchasing a brand new, fully assembled guitar and having it sit in the box without being at all assembled! The pros include Please note
I had all the parts with me - I am pleased that the guitar arrived in good condition*- There is no need to adjust it at all! Since I'm no expert, I cannot make any recommendations, but if you want something customizable, this is an excellent option. The con is Please note
If the screws were labeled and the instructions explicitly told you which screws to use, I would've found it easier to work with. There are a lot of small screws and you have to guess what size to use. This helped me to see how many I had of each size. I sorted them on my bench by size, and that Please note
Despite our careful planning, there was one unpredicted hole Using a drill. For a ground wire, I had to drill a hole inside the guitar. But I did it myself easily. Please note
Strings are not marked and appear to be very cheap (this isn't a dig, it had to be In the case of my other guitars (one electric and one acoustic), you'll be able to tell by the thickness if you've restrung those as well. This is all I have to say. This is definitely a helpful program that I recommend, and I will be checking to see what else the seller has.

I am surprised by how well it turned out
4/5

I replaced the pots and the pickups. I had better luck than I expected with the neck. This piano plays really nice. The tuning is good. Neither I nor my client have any.

The impression is very good
5/5

The bad reviews I saw of this said the veneer was thin, or the wiring harness was bad, but I didn't see enough consistency in them to worry, so I didn't waste any of my money on it. A veneer looks like this The paper is thin, yes. There are two layers of it. So long as you don't look like a hulk when you stand off the sealer, it shouldn't be a problem to do so. This is how the electronics work can't speak for the quality since I haven't seen it. In addition, I installed another set of Seymour Duncan pickups and a few controls. My only observation with the harness was that it seemed to be in good working order. I was able to find everything I needed based on There is also a lot of soldering to be done. All of it was held together by clips. In terms of action, fit, and neck, I was surprised at how good the ring was straight For the intonation, I only needed to make a little adjustment. There are a few things wrong This pickup switch comes with a piece of plastic that is super thin (semi transparent) and mine was folded in half when delivered. The A string sits lower than all of the other strings on the bridge, for whatever reason. Although I might have a defective unit, it is not adjustable and produces some unwanted fuzz and pinch harmonics (think the intro to Money for Nothing, by Dire Straits)*** Overall, I'm extremely happy with the quality for the price paid. This is definitely a book I would recommend It took me two weekends to build it from.
