A LOT of meat in this tin sandwich!
To quote that great American Keanu Reeves: "Whoa."

It's a real handful. As a usual player of the Super Chromonica 270, I can say those four extra holes really add heft. The sound is very sweet and mellow, but it does take some wind to play. That 1 blow sounds like a blast from a truck's airhorn! What a powerful sound!

The action on the button sticks from time to time, but other than that, this is the last harmonica you'll ever need.

Sound is best of any Hohner chromatic I have played
The range on this harp dips down one octave below middle C, which is fairly unique and adds to the overall possibilities of this instrument. Over the years, I have played several of the Hohner Chromatics and while this one is a bit more difficult to tongue accurately compared to the CX-12, my feeling is the quality of the sound compared to the CX-12 and 270 makes up for it in spades. I think if I had one Chromatic to own, this would be the one.

If you are a beginner, start out with the 270, it's a great value and it served me well for years. But if you are looking to step up, and can afford the price, I think this harp is well worth looking into. ... Read more

Guitar Players - to start on mandolin after playing guitar for years...this is a natural transition considering the mechanics on guitar are very similar to mandolin: 1. Both are played with a flatpick...2. Both are fretted instruments...3. Both are chordal instruments...4. Both require a knowledge of the very same music fundamentals. Violin Players - you won't have to relearn the fingerboard language...the mandolin is essentially a violin handled with a different medium...yes, due to the picking hand, as opposed to the bowing hand, there are some new mechanics to learn...even so, it would be quite a bit easier transition for a violinist to pick up the mandolin over and above any other fretted instrument...additionally, due to the bowing mechanics, a mandolinist usually has a harder time transitioning to the the violin. ...

why bother?
just learn the real guitar, how stupid would you look pressing buttons that light up...believe don't bother!

Poor man's - no! Smart man's Variax!
In addition to teaching you how to play lots of chords and do other necessary guitar-playing things, the wonderful range of tones (instruments) on this guitar and its adaptive features almost do away with the need for a second guitar. My mouth was watering for a Variax acoustic but when I measured it up with the EZ-AG I had to admit the EZ-AG met by far the most of my expectations.I like this instrument because for what I get it is inexpensive but never cheap. It's also sturdy, lightweight, easier to fret than a standard acoustic but lets you do slides and other things you wouldn't expect on plastic "string" pieces. I think maybe this is the last guitar I will ever own.

Neat guitar but over priced if you buy it here.
It is basically the same guitar as EZ-EG but without the tremelo and the UX-16 USB MIDI cable.Another neat thing about this guitar (besides being stringless) is that you can use it as a MIDI controller.
I've been watching the price for this neat learning guitar on Amazon for a while now, but am disappointed that it is still way over priced ($249.99 at this moment) compare to other online retailers.Most online stores are selling this thing for under $200.The cheapest I've found (from musiciansbuy.com) was $195.95 including free shipping, Yamaha PA3C power adaptor, Stereo headphones and Two-year extended warranty.I hope Amazon will not only match but also beat that price soon so I can put this guitar in my wish list to show my wife what I want for Christmas.

A good board for the $
My 10 year-old son wanted a keyboard for Christmas, there are about a billion choices out there. Since I have had Casio G-shock watches for many years, I thought what the HECK! Go with Casio.

the best guitar ever
I think that my kramer candy apple red guitar is the best! everything is perfect the strings, the sound, the shape you name it is the best guitar ever and I know guitars and i'm only ten.All my friends really like It to you should use it for advertisement. I think amazon.com is the best place to shop!

My favorite Guitar.
The price is amazing, for the tone and fun you get with a guitar like this. I sit all day playing it. It is a strat style guitar, and although I prefer SG types, this is a lot of fun, and out of all the 8 guitars I own, this is my favorite.

GAG!
I will have to agree with the first reviewer this guitar does have great action.But Everything else about it sucks, espically since its a strat style guitar you can only get 2 out of 5 pickup positions without fret buzz.Save your self some time and get an ESP!

Cannot be beat for the money!
My favorite guitar in my humble collection.The best guitar under $150 you can buy.

Don't expect great tuners, and the tremolo's only good, but not great.And you're well advised to replace the stock strings and adjust the bridge before you play the unit for the first time.

Do expect very good sounding, hot pickups, smooth five-position pickup selection, solid electronics, and best of all, outstanding action from a beautifully finished instrument.The Kramer Focus beats cheap Squiers & Epiphone's hands down. ... Read more

Very good approach with first class CD
OK, I have to admit this is an excellent supplement to my own book, "The Recorder From Zero, vol. I" especially for the high quality CD which includes acoustic (i.e. non-synthsized) music perfomance and accompaniments for most of the pieces in the book in many different styles. Throw in the recorder and this is really an incredible deal. It's marketed towards children but any adult would also have fun using these materials. I plan to use this book in addition to my own for teaching. ... Read more

all this for so cheap?
Well, I am impressed. I was hesitant when seeing some of the bad write ups but figured with Musician's Friend's great service, if it isn't good- send it back. Well, no need to send it back. I got the black one, very classic looking- almost flawless finish(has one tiny white stray mark under the clear but it's on the bottom back). Grover tuners are SILKY and the Washburn humbuckers ROCK! All pots work smooth and static-free(2 tone/2 volume and a three way switch)All hardware was tight and performed great. Intonition is dead on money. I MIGHT run lighter strings next go round(I like .09-.42s). Very nice sound since semi-hollow. I had a $20 off coupon so for under a benji-frank, I have a very nice guitar. Originally, I didn't even LOOK at semi-hollows, I'm young, they look OLD. But THEN, I played an Epiphone Dot Studio and I fell in LOVE with the short string length and easy of playability on the thin neck. And for a lot cheaper, I could get an Oscar-Schmidt- so I did. I got the gig bag too and it was worth the extra. Tweed vintage look with embroidered Oscar Schmidt. If you want a Gibson, GO BUY ONE, don't give this little axe a bad rap because you didn't buy what you really wanted. If you want a cheap playable semi-hollow to diversify your collection, go for it!

quality control
I've had to send back 3 of these already (scratched pickguard and neck pickup down inside the body) Musician's Friend's policy is to keep shipping out a different one at their expense rather than open the box to see if their stock is defective.I'm waiting on #4 to arrive.The price is right only if you get a good one.Otherwise it's not a good value after paying a repairman to fix it.

An Inexpensive Axe To Play The Blues On
As you know from my tool reviews I am a magazine columnistwho reviews tools for boatbuilding.My other love beside my wife and tools is my music playing.When I became disabled I solda lot of my guitar collection to pay bills and I thought I would never use them again.When I started playing again I found I needed a good quality guitar that had good resonance to give a little blues flavor.I ordered the OE30 with some trepidation since it was very inexpensive.When I got it the strings were rusted junk but the rest of the guitar was very nice.No neck warp, no uneven frets, good sounding hum buckers and excellent intonation .

This model was made in China and not Indonesia as all the newer OE30's are now.The finish has no flaws at all and the Grover tuners work great.I have heard some very bad reviews of this guitar but I must have received a perfect specimen. When I hook this axe to my big amp and play you would think I could be playing a Gretch or Gibson semi hollow body . In fact the OE30 fits in the Epiphone 335 case that is on sale for very few bucks and it fits perfectly.My suggestion for anyone is to buy this sweet machine but send back any inferior products because they may have some quality control issues and they do have an excellent return policy.Mine is black but for the price I would not mind having a cherry and blue burst model also.Who could have thought that I could buy a great semi hollow body guitar for less than a grand although it does say Delta King on the headstock.Try one or more you will like them!

Best deal .
I'm a hobbyist amateur and found this to be the best way to own a quality semi hollow body guitar. It has a great tone and fast neck.

The pick-ups and bridge are inconsistantly installed and adjusted from the factory (Indonesia).

I bought 3 and they all need some various professional attention.

Otherwise an excellent bargain. ... Read more

Product Description

Free carrying case. Four fine tuners. Featherweight case with strap and carrying handle. Pear wood fingerboard. Rosin. Accessory colors/style may vary.Here are some hints to help keep your violin in tune:1. Although the violins come with a bridge, it is not installed. Installing a bridge should not be too difficult, but if you have a problem, please email us. The bridge has to be installed for the violin to play correctly.2. Strings do tend to slip and lose their tune on a new violin because they need to stretch. If this happens, just give it time. This does NOT mean that the violin is defective. The strings just need time to settle in.3. If the violin pegs keep slipping, try to push the peg in while turning it. If they still dont say in, peg drops are available at most music stores. They are relatively inexpensive and should help the pegs stay in.4. If a strand of hair breaks on the bow, take a pair of nail clippers and cut it from the frog (bottom of the bow) or the top of the bow. A few hairs are bound to fall out with play. Remember to rub a little rosin (included) on the bow before playing. ... Read more
