Ok for the money
Minor blemishes, here and there.
Sound is ok and useable, but the pickups are a little dull sounding, compared to higher end pickups. The pickup size is not standard, so it'll be tricky to find replacements. Bear this in mind, if you're looking to replace the pickups.
Pots feel good, for the money. Jack socket plugs in nice and solid.
12 string tuning stability can be a nightmare, so I replaced the tuners for locking ones to help tuning stability. I'd recommend getting some cheap locking tuners - note you'll need 6 a side version, 1 normal and 1 lefty.
The tailpiece is a nightmare for restringing. Not a great design at all. Very finicky and hard to get the strings to sit in. I'll be looking at replacing this.
For the money, I wasn't expecting anything amazing, but it's ok and useable.
Fretwork/nut cutting isn't great. Could do with a professional setup to just take it to a gig-able level.
Case wise, this fits the Thomann Guitar Case Single-/Double Cut perfectly - item number 129350. If you want a hard case with this, but this one.

Only for the brave
Mmm I thought this was the cheats way to get a 12 string elec. Ric? I have since discovered this guitar is very hard to play due to the widest neck I've ever felt on a elec. guitar! You need strong fingers to play a song straight through with this. But what I didn't count on was how hard it is to keep a 12 string in tune. I am a stickler for tuning with a 6 string but I have met my match with this beast. Tuning/plucking the individual strings was painful and honestly you need 20 - 30 mins if you want recordable concert pitch. It does look pretty cool I'll give you that but I think you know what I'm going to do with it...........
