Vandaag in ontvangst genomen. Ben in Rotterdam fantastisch geholpen! Mijn exemplaar bleek een niet geweldig rechte hals te hebben. Mij werd gevraagd of ik even tijd had, er was nog een tweede gitaar in de shop, die beter gebouwd bleek te zijn. De medewerker heeft de freteinden gevijld en de halskromming aangepast. Een top service die je eigenlijk niet verwacht bij deze belachelijk lage prijs! Eerste indruk: een beetje finetunen, aktie en intonatie nog wat verbeteren en genieten geblazen. Over het spuitwerk kan ik kort zijn: het ziet er mooi uit inclusief hoogglans. Wil je perfect afgewerkt, zul je in een veel duurder segment moeten zoeken. O, detail: het fretboard van de gitaar die ik kocht is veel donkerder dan dat van het model dat hierboven zichtbaar is. Mij hoor je niet klagen.
Geweldige gitaar om te zien en de prijs is bijna een belediging...

Received on time and well packaged so it was a good start.
Action was very low so needed a few tweejs but no real issue, tuners are fine, once strings were changed, I put on Thomastik Flatwounds, 10 gauge and they really enhanced the sound, slight issue with B string, lit of buzz from the tuning peg couldn't work it out so changed from 14 to 12 and problem solved. Very nice warm sound from pickups, both together are really nice. Bridge is bright but no too bright all in all soundwise, very happy. Put a spare roller bridge on and changed the control knobs with sime spares I had and that was it, apart from the odd blemish on the body that was all fine, frets were fine, very playable all over the fretboard, stays in tune nicely, nice weight to it and really looks the deal, for the price I think it was a bargain well worth the punt its a nice bit of kit and am very happy with it.

Arrived on time. Adequately packed. General finish is good for the price. The supplied strings are poor, the guitar would not stay in tune, recommend changing them to a set with a wound 3rd to solve that problem. The action is good and low, so no intervention required there. The guitar body is probably smaller than you might expect, but not an issue. Altogether pleased with the purchase.

Delivered a day earlier than expected, well packed and good looking Rickenbacker copy. Played fine right out the box, a few small blemishes on the finish but not complaining for £118. Changed the strings right away to Ernie Ball super slinky as the strings on it weren't great. Very pleased, I have quite a few guitars which are much more expensive but this this is a remarkable guitar for little cash. Enjoying playing a few Beatles songs on it. Well done Bax!

For this price, I wasn't expecting much, but I was wrong, because it is great. It will need upgrades and work to make it into the guitar I want, but I have already had a lot of fun with it. I played along with "I want to hold your hand" and, although it is no Rick, it was close enough to feel the vibe.

Delived in 3 days,well packed and looks a rather small version of Rickenbocker,anyway smart finish no blemishes on paintwork, striking headstock with okay tuners to boot, only had to raise pups otherwise plays well out of the box, tuning is very stable (on mine at least). Neck fills my hand and strings have a snappy, bouncey feel which is sought after on more expensive guitars
I love it's clean jangly sound
plus with a bit of dirt it chugs along lovely making blues
and rock a breeze to playable in all a great little guitar for the money it's a no brained.

A nice looking guitar at a very affordable price. It arrived well packed with in 2 days of order and played well out of the box. It had a couple of very small marks on it but only visible under close inspection. At £114.95 delivered I was not complaining, spent an hour setting it up and sorting the intonation and it plays really well. All in all I am very happy with it.

I read the many reviews on this low cost instrument before purchase, but low price was compelling enough to take a chance. The guitar arrived well packed - good solid outer carton, some bubble wrap type material inside. Inside that the manufacturers box which contained the guitar, wrapped inside with polystyrene protection. The inner box wasn't sealed, but the guitar was unlikely to escape and even if it did, was protected inside outer carton by it's wrapping and by bubble. The guitar is great, particularly for the money. Everything works. Finish has one or two minor scuffs but I've seen worse on far more expensive instruments. Action is low and doesn't buzz, pickups set correctly and strings aren't best but are fine for purpose - I won't need to change them until they have some age. Truss rod is correctly set. Only adjustment was minor tweak to intonation on a couple of strings - probably me being fussy. All in all, a very playable and cool looking guitar for very little money :-)

I took a punt on this guitar, as the price was so low. Yet it looked so good, and I've bought Fazely mini humbuckers before when building another guitar and they are easily better than more expensive ones. With this in mind I trusted the guitar to sound good at least. I've always admired the Rick style Beatles/Jam model, so with thought of my birthday coming up... I pulled the trigger. I've read many of the reviews stating bad quality items/poor packaging, lengthy delivery time blah blah. I've bought guitars and all-sorts from Bax before and there service is either very good, or I'm just very lucky! I think the former.
Surprised to find my new package in my hallway after only four days. Good 'ole Bax.
Guitar came double boxed with plenty of passing with Allen key, cheap lead and plectrum! But what was the guitar like???
No need to worry. Not a mark on the highly glossed finish,and played okay right out of the box. 1st impressions good, now to plug it in. Overall good rich sound from the mini humbuckers helped by the cavity no doubt. Strings came straight off to be replaced by Ernie's, but I always do that to a newbie axe. Truss rod needed a fair bit of relief, but it had been stood in a freezing cold porch all day. Nut slots needed filing to my my personal taste. Frets were all smooth. Not so good at the top of the fretboard. Look like tooling marks left when clamping the neck to the body. Neck pickup is just slightly crooked, but hey...you can't expect champagne for beer money. All in all a great sounding and looking guitar. Plays great. Fantastic rich clean tones, and chugs well with distortion. I am well cuffed with it, and it never broke the bank. I love playing it and hope that I don't wear it out!
Nice one Bax.
Cheers
