Daisy Rock Retro-H De-Luxe (Sea Foam Green) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar sounds the best of any of the electric girl guitars I have purchased so far. It is very lightweight so it doesn't tire you out to hold it and play it. I just got mine yesterday and have already put in four hours of playing time. Men and women alike love this guitar. Experienced players love the bigsby roller saddle. Everyohne loves the color which is really more of an aqua. One of my co-workers said it was so beautiful it gave her the shivers. This is a guitar to fall in love with. I can barely put it down.

Oscar Schmidt OE30 Hollow Body Electric Guitars, Tobacco Sunburst Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am by no means an expert guitar player. I used to play when I was younger and just recently decided to start playing again. I love Country Music, some Jazz, some Blues and some Rock. More Country Music than any of the others.
I previously purchased an Oscar Schmidt Blue Burst for myself and was so impressed I decided to buy a Tobacco Sunburst. When I received the Tobacco Sunburst, I noticed it was one made in Indonesia. I looked it over and it looked and felt like a real quality guitar. In some ways, it felt better than the Blue Burst I have that is made in China. After tuning it, I played a few chords with an amplifier and a few chords without. The sound it produced was REMARKABLE!!! This is NOT a cheap guitar! With or without an amplifier, this guitar has a sound that can give the best Gibson, Epiphone or Gretsch REAL competition!!!
The OE30 has two Washburn Series 400 Pickups that can produce a warm deep mellow sound or a sharp rock growl. The body is made of maple with a flawless finish. The neck is mahogany and has a good feel. The Grover Tuners are quality and have a good postive feel when tuning. The Tobacco Sunburst came with different strings than my Blue Burst. The strings are thicker and more like the strings on an acoustic. Playing it takes a tad more pressure, but the sound they produce is beyond belief!
For the price, you get an awesome guitar that rivals the more expensive semi-hollows. Don't let the fact it's made in Indonesia dissuade you from purchasing one. I will admit, there are flaws, but you have to look really, REALLY close to find any. This is a quality guitar that if properly cared for, could last a lifetime and will. Washburn also warranties the guitar to the original purchaser for life. (Read the Warranty for limitations).
If you want a semi-hollow guitar, consider the OE30. You will not be sorry. You will receive a quality guitar, a lifetime warranty and save money as well.

Washburn HB Series HB15TSK Electric Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Like I said in the title, this is a great guitar! And I mean that.
A lot of people will slag on this guitar just because it's a Washburn. While I don't like Washburn guitars that much, I a huge fan of this particular model. It has the look I wanted, plus the sound is thick and warm. It really does sound a lot like those 1920s-1930s "floating pickup" guitars that it is modelled after. The thick neck feels real good in your hands.
There are three different versiosn of this guitar. There's another HB-15 that has the volume and tone knobs on the body itself, and then there's an HB-15 with a single cutaway. Personally, I REALLY wanted the knobs on the pickguard, so that's what I bought. The tabacco burst is cool looking.
I sanded my guitar's neck and body. The neck's so smooth and the guitar looks older, as if it may actually be from the 1930s. The only other alteration I made was moving the strap peg to the neck. Most guitar snobs I know (and we all know a couple) are surprised to hear that this jazz-box is a Washburn. A comporable guitar will run you $600!
The only downsides I've had with my HB-15 is a little buzzing around the fifth fret. I had the fret filed by a luthier (about $10) and haven't had any more buzz since. Oh, it does pay to keep the bridge around the same area, because it can set the intonation off.
Washburn's HB-15 is a GREAT guitar for looks, sound, playability, and affordability.

Epiphone Sheraton II Archtop Electric Guitar, Vintage Sunburst Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the second Epiphone guitar I've owned. The first was a hollowbody Casino (Casinos are often mistaken for semi-hollowbody) and the Sheraton is my second.
How do they compare? While the Casino is more jangly, its full hollowbody and P90 pickups means that it is prone to feedback, even at moderate volumes, so you really need to pay attention to where you're standing in relation to speakers. The Sheraton doesn't have these problems. The Casino was lighter...
Both of these guitars are great. However, I prefer my Sheraton. I bought a used one for $400. The original owner had changed the tuners and the pots. The guitar now looks more like a Sheraton Elitist, which are something like $1,300, if I'm not mistaken. The original humbuckers are pretty good. They deliver a wide tonal range that, while not as bright as the Casino's twin P90s, do not have the tendency to feedback or get piercing.
The gutiar looks great too! I have a sunburst, lighter than a typical sunburst. Its more like a honeyburst. The body is bound, the neck has two running lines going down the back. The fret markers are the best, though; pearloid 1935 "V" cut. Check those out! The headstock logo's real sharp too. For looks, the only thing lacking on the Sheraton is the tailpiece. That's almost purley cosmetic though, but I wish the Sheraton had the Casino or, preferably, the Riviera/ Emperor tailpeice.
My used Sheraton needed a good set-up. That set me back about $70, but was worth it. So, I got this guitar, set-up, plus a beaten-up case for $509 (that's after shipping expenses too). You'd be hard pressed to find a better guitar at $500. Go to a store and play a Sheraton if you don't believe me!

Washburn HB Series HB15CTSK Electric Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a fantastic archtop guitar, and at a very reasonable price. Set-up is great right out of the box. It isn't fancy, but the fretwork is MUCH better than I've seen on other guitars in this price range. The bridge is fitted almost perfectly. Fit and finish is better than I've seen on Epiphones costing twice as much. Acoustically, it is quite loud, with good mellow tone. Plugged in, you have the same sound, but louder. The floating pickup works great for amplified acoustic jazzy sounds. And NO feedback! I turned it up quite loud and nary a squeal. If you're after a twangy electric sound, though, this guitar is probably not for you. The gig bag is okay, but I will be getting a hard case. My only other complaint is that the nut is on the narrow side, about 1 21/32 inches, more like a chunky Strat neck than a Gibson. I'm not sure this is a problem; the more I play it, the more I like it. I've owned and sold six other archtop guitars, but this one is a keeper!

Johnson Delta Rose Archtop Electric Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just bought the Delta Rose. I was too influenced by other reviews. You get what you pay for, and this guitar is equal to the price. It doesn't have the versatility it is reputed to have. It is ok for light jazz or blues, with a clean setting. The guitar is well put together. The top is a laminate, something to be expected in this price range. It is supposedly maple and spruce. It sounds more like mahogany than maple. Not very bright in sound. The neck is comfortable, but the action is a little high. Nothing that can't be adjusted easily. I am definitely replacing the EMG designed pickups. The three position switch is functional, but the neck pickup output is sub par. Finish on the guitar is good. You have to look very close to find the places that could have used more buffing before the final finish was applied. If I had heard this guitar before purchase, I wouldn't have bought it. But that is the chance you take buying mail order. The bottom line, I got what I paid for.

Delta RoseThe Johnson Delta Rose is the new standard for that big hollowbody sound in a smaller profile. Versatile and unique, this guitar shines in rock, jazz, blues, and more. The spruce top and maple body, combined with the punchy humbuckers, give this guitar a deep, meaty tone. The combination of the superb tonewoods, along with the dual humbuckers, gives the Delta Rose the ability to go from a soft purr to a full growl. The Johnson Delta Rose hollowbody shines in any setting and consistently rewards players with its big tone.Specifications (JH-100)Body: Maple Neck: Set-In Mahogany Fretboard: Rosewood Finish: Vintage Sunburst Inlay: Dot Bridge: Tune-O Matic Tuners: Die-Cast Pickups: Dual Humbuckers Controls: Volume & Tone perPickup, 3-Way Switcvh Neck Joint: Set Neck Joint Location: 19th Radius: 16" Nut, Width: 1-11/16" Tailpiece: Stopbar Scale Length: 24.75" Total Length: 42"
