Saga HT-10 PS Style Electric Guitar Kit




This review is from: Saga HT-10 PS Style Electric Guitar KitInitial expectation was assemble a guitar that I could make look cool. Picked up a kit at a local shop and was surprised at the wood quality it was a bit better than expected. This unit was solid wood don't expect this in a squire. Yes, the hardware is cheap, especially the tuning pegs you will want to change these out if you are serious about the sound. The bridge setup was on par for guitars of this level and more than adequate. A real bridge will cost you more than the kit,. The pickups are much nicer than expected. I'm going to change them out eventually. Biggest grip is that the pre-drilled holes are not always aligned correctly and can ndrot be fix easily.Bottom line is when you finished you have guitar that plays like one worth $200 to $300 hundred dollars, but education and experience are priceless. Good if you want experience building, but not good for those who need a guitar. After building the HT-10 I can't understand why the Mexi-strats are so poorly assembled, but I've put $400+ of sweat equity into this project. Next time I'll tweak a solid base guitar than building from kit....

This review is from: Saga HT-10 PS Style Electric Guitar KitI bought one of these just for fun. It was easy enough to finish and put together, but given that you can pay $150 for a single humbucker, don't expect this thing to sound like a PRS, even if you can make it look (sort of) like one.The other hardware is cheap, too. I had one of the mounting screws for the neck break off; another one split the heel. The damage wasn't so bad that it wouldn't work, but now I've got a guitar that doesn't sound that great, and I probably could only give away. Two stars instead of one because it was a fun learning experience....

This review is from: Saga HT-10 PS Style Electric Guitar KitI can't believe amazon would even allow this kit to be sold on their site. the neck was warped..the tuners are horrible and the pickups sound muddy. Overall bad deal. don't waste your time....
