The guitar is beautifully finished and an absolute eye catcher. The noiseless pickups are great, the sound is rich and punchy! All good, but…
The guitar doesn’t stay in tune and requires the tuning after 20 min of playing, also every time before taking the instrument. I had to adjust the string action (was high) and the truss rod. The guitar also had issues with sharps on the first frets (means the strings are too high in the nut), so I had to file the nut to lower the string height on the first frets. It helped but only partially as the intonation was still uncatchable… I contacted Thomann for a replacement but as 30 days since the purchase had already been gone, they proposed to send it for maintenance. I politely declined and decided to change the nut. And it changed everything! No more tuning or intonation issues. The guitar stays in tune for weeks now. It is surprising to have such bad quality items on a 1k guitar from the start. I bet not many people would like to venture into this type of extensive setups or pay a luthier 10-20% of the guitar price to make it playable… I like this guitar but because of the quality issues only 3 stars…
