It sounded like crap no doubt and pardon the shirt, it's hot here in malaysia

[Lefty Robb]

ok here it is, this is the first time I'm using youtube

wow, umm, was that guitar even in tune? or was the action so rediculously high it was unplayable? The Chibanez I saw has enough action at the 24th fret to allow my pinky to pass under it.

well, it sounds like any other guitar. you can make any guitar sound nice, but it's the playablity you cannot capture on video.

I think it's just like any other guitar, you need to have the break in feel before you truly can control the instrument but certainly not the same with a 7v a 1000 times!!!

This guitar is like that when I got it but I set it up myself and and the intonate it, anyway I'm selling it away to someone here for 130usd, I didn't want it at first when I saw it on the bay I just bid and the lousiest amount but one day I open my mail, it says congratz you won an auction WTF?!

mi2tom - on a scale of 1-10, 1 is unplayable, 10 is great, how would rate that guitar?

Thanks for posting that..... now we "know" they're nothing like the "real deal".

eh, i think that the reason that the action is so high is that the neck has no truss rod to adjust bow, so it's practically like a bow and arrow. i really don't thhink they are worth anybody's time.

Funny, mine does have a truss rod but seriously they aren't worth anybody's time though
