Liked this. I have played lapsteel for 50+ years and wanted a cheap one for travel. This fills the bill. looks good (I got the sunburst) and sounds good.The string spacing is nice and wide, even though the slot for the 3rd string might be a tiny bit off. It's fine at the bridge where it really matters. The strings are a good height off the fretboard, making it easy to play in tune. (For a lapsteel LOL). The fret markers seem fairly accurate. Harmonics are where they should be, within reason. I like that they are just markers, and they haven't wasted time on brass frets.The single coil pickup is loud and clear, giving a good variety of tones. As others mentioned, the tone and volume work well with no crackles. Tone range is sufficient for "boo-wah" technique. If you are looking for a super heavy distortion, remember this is a single coil and won't distort the same as a humbucker. The pickup is routed into the top, so finding a humbucker to install might be a challenge.A distortion pedal would probably make up the difference. I am using it with a Fender Champion 20 with Eminence TF0818 speaker added and the overdrive settings are fine for me.Tuners are sealed and look solid enough. The strings supplied are very skinny, with a plain 3rd, so you have to tune it pretty high to get the rattles out of the nut. No problem though. I tuned it as delivered (lo to high) A E G C E G and no strings broke. Holds tune fine. I could take this to a jam session or gig without problem.Highly recommended. It is a good bargain. Also, the "string through" feature at the bridge is a plus.Much, much better than others at this price point. It came 2 days after I ordered it, well wrapped and double boxed.
