Surf's up
By: Q on 27 July 2020This is a pretty good approximation of a Jazzmaster, complete with single coil hum (if you get too close to the amp or the flouro lights) Looks as good as it plays, and sounds as good as it looks. I modded mine with a B5 style tremolo and it really tops it off nicely. Handles all the subtle Hank Marvin style guitar licks with ease. The P90 style pups are solid sounding (not at all microphonic) even at high gain, although I guess it's not really designed for it. No unwanted feedback or squealing sounds. The bound neck makes for easy neck transitions, and it's easy to achieve a nice low action if you like a fast fretboard. All up I am quite happy with this one, I would definitely recommend it.

Big fan of it
By: Ben Knight on 24 July 2020I'm gonna be real — I'm not an accomplished guitar player. I am not knowledgable about guitars at all. What makes one good or bad? I dunno. All I know is, I want one that feels good to play and sounds good for recording and jamming. I found that, and then some with the Grungemaster. It is a well-built piece that is a joy to play. The factory strings are pretty nice, there's no buzz, and overall it has a wonderfully dynamic tone that is perfect for the style of music I like to play. I am extremley happy with this, not just as a value guitar, but as a guitar in its own right.

Good Bones
By: Bryan on 27 June 2020Mine came from the bargain bin. It was returned with a 'faulty switch', which turned out to be a shorted pickup due to an overheated solder joint. It was easily fixed, but it shows quality control failures can happen. Most reviews are saying they play fine, so I guess I was unlucky because the buzz on mine couldn't be adjusted out. So I got to try my hand at fret levelling, which was kinda fun and made a big difference. One curious issue was the bridge pickup didn't align well with the strings. I moved it, which required a little filing on the pickguard. I can't say if it made a difference to the sound, but it looks better. I think I can see this in pictures online too, so I guess they're all like that. Bit of a clanger that, Artist (Harley Benton). Because it was heavily discounted, and because I'm a fiddler, I was happy enough to deal with these issues. But if I'd paid list price I might have been less happy. Now that it's sorted, I love it. This is my first guitar with P90s and I don't want to play my humbucker guitar anymore. Pros: Finish. Pickups. Tuning stability. Price. Cons: Fret buzz. Neck dive. Pickup misalignment. Patchy QC (side markers rough, bubbled chrome on one tuner, bad solder joint). No colour options. Conclusion: Looks and sounds great. Perfect for learning about guitar setup or a modding platform.

Wow, so happy with it
By: Peter on 29 May 2020Just received delivery and loving it. Bit of fret buzz that I’ll adjust out once the guitar settles down but nothing to be concerned about. The sound of the pick ups are very punky. Absolute quality

Artist Grungemaster
By: Francesco on 11 May 2020Beautifully made and playing guitar, punches well above its price point in all areas. Does require a basic setup and better quality strings but thats it. The P90's shine here in all three positions, slightly noisy when overdriven but the trade off is a wonderful bluesy tone and classic rock crunch. Cleans up very well too for a rich, warm tone. in summing up a well built, nicely presented and very good quality guitar to own and play. Thanks for the fast turnover too guys, extremely happy with the purchase.

Grungemaster guitar
By: Griffo on 18 April 2020I had been thinking about getting this guitar for a while, and then I saw Brett Kingsman’s review on YouTube. He was very impressed with the quality as well as the sounds, and I thought that is good enough for me. I ordered it on Easter Monday afternoon and it was delivered Wednesday morning at 7.40am. Unboxing, I was very impressed with the overall quality and all that was needed was to tune it with my Korg GA50. What a great player, great sustain, great sounding pickups and a nice satin finished neck. I’ve got a lot of great guitars and this is an amazing addition to my collection and for $249 it’s a steal...do yourself a favour!

Looks good, sounds good, plays great
By: Matt on 26 February 2020This is my 3rd guitar from Artist Guitars and it doesnt disappoint. Really good buiild quality, the neck is a good shape and its very comfortable to play. Pickups are good and I especially like the neck pick up. Holds tuning really well straight out of the box. I'll lower the action slightly and then gig with it. Top service and delivered in 2 days. Well done Artist Guitars.

Great value, great quality!
By: Phillip Rowe on 12 December 2019This is my 4th guitar from this company, and I can tell you straight up, this guitar is unbelievable value for the low cost! The only thing I've done to it so far is tuned it up! It plays really well, it's got good tones without any effects, which is always a good sign. So well made, and I'm critical about everything! Good cormfortable weight, no imperfections on the body or neck! Plays well all the way up the neck, excellent action (and I haven't even done a setup yet!) I have assorted guitars, and this one, regardless of price, is just as pleasing to play as any of them! I personally would recommend this guitar for a beginner to get into the game, and I'm no beginner and I'm in the game, and I'm equally pleased with it as any that I own! I wish that Artist Guitars were around when I first started! Today's kids have got it made! Thanks AG!
