Fazley Sunset Series Dawn HSS 3/4 Olympic White electric children's guitar with gig bag
Thankyou for the guitar it arrived safely and looks lovely. My daughter 11years old is very happy.
I would give 5 stars but there are big differences in the dimensions you provide in the description.
I rang customer service before ordering as I could clearly see there were 20 frets not 22 as described. I was told to go by the photo onscreen.
I took a chance all the same but I would like others to know that there are big differences and Bax should correct this!
1. 20 frets (not 22)
2. Scale length not 24" as stated but 578mm! I thought it would be similar to my Mustang or Jaguar which have a 24" scale length. It is quite a bit shorter!
3. Bridge is standard 52mm spacing but the nut is 37mm (1.53 inches) and not 41,9 mm (1.65 inches) and It is quite a bit narrower.
The guitar weighs in at about 2.4kg which is light and perfect for junior size.
If you think about buying this for xmas or birthday to make everything right it will need a setup, it took me a little over an hour but most people should take it to a Luthier.
It seems to be very similar to the Jet 300 mini but with the difference of the vibrato (instead of the hardtail) which actually works, I managed to float it nicely and it stays in tune.
MOST IMPORTANT if you buy this guitar you need different strings because the strings it comes with are too light for this small scale guitar. I ordered Ernie Ball Regular Slinky 2221 (10-46) which did the job.
The pickups work fine no need to change anything there.
The neck is a 14" radius and feels lovely, the frets well seated and no sharp fret ends but need a little polish as they arrived tarnished and felt scratchy.
I hope Bax take note and change the description as I'm really pleased with this little electric strat. For the price it's great and well worth spending a little time to set up right.
Thanks to Youtubers Steve Cassidy Guitar and Milehouse Studios for putting me onto Fazley.
