I am writing about the metallic blue guitar combo with the ten watt amp. As of the time of this creating, the amp I received was not the one particular in the picture, but the identical as the one particular observed in the pic of the Austin pink guitar combo pack elsewhere on this web site. Other than that, anything was as pictured.

I am an adult who is learning the guitar. I have played the bass guitar on and off for years, so I have some familiarity with electric basses. I purchased this simply because it was so cheap and I was inclined to take a opportunity for the funds. I am glad I did. The other combos I regarded have been closer to double the cash.

The guitar: It states “Crescent” on the logo, not Austin, which was noted in yet another evaluation on the Austin keep front web site. No massive deal. The strings on the guitar are crappy, crappy. It did come with six alternative strings which are also crappy. It also came with a low-cost gig bag, which will perform if you only go to lessons and back and dont drop it, and will keep the dust off. The strap is inexpensive, leave it on the guitar and do not take it on and off. Never trust it too a lot, either. I use it sitting down. It came with an amp cord that is Okay. The select is Okay, tough to ruin that! Rembember this is a $ one hundred+ combo.

The guitar was dusty when I received it like it had been hanging close to, not bad, but noticable. The finish is a blue/green sparkle sort of colour that I like. (I am exhausted of black, white and red guitars). There were no mars in the finish. The nut had a quite slight gap on one particular side that did not seem to overty have an effect on anything, but I would desire to see it flush into the neck. The neck was straight and felt excellent, though it was marred cosmetically by what looked like rough edges, but had been actually smooth to the touch. There is a select edge sized gap between the neck and physique, more so than other guitars that I have but not alarmingly so. The neck does appear to be straight on strong with no movement and even with the entire body on checking. The fret edges were a bit rough, but not annoyingly so. There is some string buzz, but I feel that is a saddle height adjustment problem that wants to be created. The machine heads really feel cheap but appear to be holding a tune fairly nicely for now, I am hoping they hold up. The bridge seems great for a this price tag assortment. It came with a whammy bar that I am not using appropriate now. The controls all seem to function rather well and the five-way switch is Ok. No pot noise or dead spots, no loose or wobbly knobs. Totally nothing thrilling, just really standard. The entire body is surprisingly heavy–I anticipated a lighter weight guitar. (I am female, so this might not be as significantly so for a guy) The sound is not poor for a cheapy, I have heard worse. It came with a truss rod wrench and an allen wrench for the bridge. I did have some difficulty with adjusting the height on 1 of the strings–the screw kept slipping on a single side of the B string.

The amp: I LIKE this small amp!! Remember it is not the 1 pictured with this guitar–seem for the pink combo elsewhere on the web site. This is a slim, lightweight amp with bass, treble, mid, get, and volume knobs. There is also a get button and a headphone jack. All are on the front of the amp for simple reach. The controls operate properly with no pot noise or dead spots or loose knobs. The amp actually has a clear, sharp sound, surprising kick for its size. It is attractively developed and looks rather sturdy. It did come witha really slight ding on the best, which was simply pressed down and glued and is not noticeable now.

My combo was not broken in shipping at all and came at the designated time. Is this as excellent as a Fender combo? Guitar clever possibly not fairly, amp clever perhaps far better. If you can get a Squier guitar, get one particular, if not, and your spending budget is restricted, this combo is very good for the price tag. I would purchase one more.

UPDATE: I did acquire an additional Crescent guitar and it is even far superior than this one! It is also much lighter.

I was totally shocked to see a complete beginner’s set for such a low price tag. And if you assume “you get what you shell out for”, let me tell you that all the components in this kit is made of top rated top quality materials. The guitar itself seems fantastic. The frets really feel excellent. The strings are great. The three different picks are great. The amp is loud. It really is just wonderful. I am just starting up to learn, but I can see myself going a long way with this set. I just plainly really like it! Highly proposed!

Aged white plastic kit, as pointed out, it is rather self-explanatory. Pickup covers, knobs, switch and trem bar suggestions, and yes, the trem cover is single-ply, mint green. It shocked me the first time I ordered this kit, but I have used several and knew what to expect. Your guitar is really worth the OEM accessories.

My grandson was thrilled with all of it. The service was swiftly and I will deal with this firm once again.

This merchandise was excellent! I got it for my 9 year old son for Xmas and he adores it! It came with nearly everything it stated it would. It was packaged truly properly.

Buy for my grandson of 4 many years as a gift for his birthday and it was ideal, the cost versus high quality, excellent guitar and dimension can be tuned very appropriate as the amplifier, it is extremely practical for its dimension and its energy, not also noisy for use inside a residence. In swift it is a good purchase!
