Review: This is a very nice instrument for the price. It is well made, balanced, and other than needing a new set of strings on arrival, it has been a really funny instrument to play with. The non-slip grips on the bottom make it very steady to play in a sitting position.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by J***M on 6 October 2021*

A good buy I believe. I like the neck.. nice and wide for easily playing individual strings. The pickup is OK, and the guitar looks nice and vintagey. The Wilkinson tuners required replacing though.. one was loose and didn’t catch the string tension very well. Cosmo music sent me replacements which were easily installed, and now all is good. Thanks Cosmo!
