Most of the kit I really liked. The wood they used was nice when simple stain was used. All the components were nicely bagged, pretty straight forward put to together. After a few tweaks on the neck and bridge sections, the intonation came right in. I was able to play any chord past the 13th fret, in tune! On the sound check, I used my Boss GT-1 "Guitar Effects Processor" and the sounds were great! Pickups were great for me. They are keepers. Ok now, the tough part. You`ll need a few guitar files to adjust your head nut. There is not any "setup" work done on the guitar, so it`s up to you to learn about this. I found many videos that helped me along. A lot of things matter how to setup, many things would be your personal choices. There are some nice guitar setup tool kits here on amazon, I got one myself from here. When I get caught up I`ll send some pics. So far, I play the guitar a few times a day, fun to practice on since the semi hollow body is just loud enough I can grab it anytime and not ruin the spouses TV show. LOL! I would recommend to any interested in playing guitar for sure!!
