The tuners stick out of the back and constantly rub against you. You spend more time tuning than playing

This guitar played great right out of the box. The action was very good and the intonation was spot on. You get a full two octaves in frets. I enjoyed playing it within minutes of tuning it up. That said, I gave 4 stars because there is no volume or tone control on the instrument. By itself it sounds a bit twangy plugged straight into an amp. As I use a multi-digital effects unit I just dialed in the my tone using EQ, reverb etc.This guitar sounded much better when I changed the strings to my regular d’addario professional light gauge strings that I use on my other guitars.Overall I’m very pleased with this guitar. The neck plays well, feels good and it’s compact size can travel just about anywhere.

I am simply blown away. I travel a lot for work & have been seeking a way to play guitar on the road for a couple years now. I’ve tried midi style guitars, mini style guitars, etc. always ended up returning. The other travel guitars have always been 300/400+ & for that much I’d rather put towards a “regular” guitar.. guess I’m cheap.Came across this while casually looking hoping for a prime deal on a traveler brand one or something. Checked them out on YouTube & the a lot of the reviews have seemed kinda biased I figured I’ve tried all these other options & for $200 why not.I’ve had it a little over week or so now.. holy sh** it really does play amazing. The neck feels like a worn in comfortable old guitar, the pickup screams & the tuning really is solid. I could see a setup making this play even better but right out of the box for me the intonation was pretty spot on & the more I play it the more stable the tunings getting, break on the strings & you’re solid. The included gig bag looks just like a tripod case & can just clip on a backpack. As someone who travels a lot trust me flight attendants could care less about something like this clipped on. It also slides right on top of a completely full overhead bin with full size carryons, this is literally the perfect travel guitar. Now on the unexpected other hand.. this is changing the way I play & practice guitar. I use a camera strap as it’s a little more comfortable & you can get it a little higher than some guitar straps. With the entire fretboard being right under my eyes it’s like playing while also watching someone else play. For recording, improvising & noodling around I’ve actually been finding playing it to be extremely inspiring & fun, it’s helping me explore areas of my fretboard I guess I’ve never really noticed or looked at the way I do with this travel guitar. I have great guitars, vintage custom tele, strats, etc & I’ve honestly been playing this nonstop over my others, could also be the novelty of it but I’ve yet to put it down. I can’t believe how good it sounds, I don’t get it. The tuning pegs don’t really get messed with whether sitting, standing, holding in weird angle, nothing, it’s solid. The neck is fast & just welcoming. No volume or tone but whatever it’s all or nothing with this. I think it’s one solid long piece of wood? It sustains for days, I don’t get it. The craftsmanship is nearly flawless, I bought the flat black model & it looks great, truly like a high quality well built instrument, which honestly it is. I almost want to get another in a different color to maybe mod a little & use a secondary to my current one at little gigs. Not sure if I will actually gig with it as I’m mostly a recording artists these days but I would absolutely play out, especially with the ways you can play that aren’t possible with a traditional guitar.Ok this is a novel.. it’s a really good travel guitar. I’ve tried at least 6 or 7 & I'm finally done.

Both. They both are real guitars. Seriously, you are not really going to do a club gig with the Allgig, but you for sure will pick it up, plug it in a play it. The humbuckers are real and give the guitar a very clear signature. The tone is very neutral. It plays nice and is easy to adapt to. It will play screaming riffs, if you're curious about that. Look at some of the youtube reviews of this guitar. As this is a travel guitar and made to just about fit in your back pocket, it lacks a lot of features found on full-size guitars. No tone or volume control. Do all that through your amp. Yes, it really is a very compact design. Tiny, really. But, it does have a full-size neck, so you don't lose playability with this. So, get a pocket amp, a strap and you are ready to take this anywhere. I don't see anything in the construction that would make me question its durability. Seems very sturdy, really. It also keeps its tune so it would appear nothing is moving around on it. It does have a tune-o-matic bridge so it would be easy to adjust your action. Bottom line; I like it. I gave it five stars since it seems to excel at what it is; a travel guitar. It does not compare to a full-size top of the line guitar, but it wasn't meant to.
