Artist LP60BKL Left Handed Electric Guitar + Accessories - Black

So much guitar for the money!

By: Justin on 21 May 2021

Next day delivery (!), guitar looks fantastic. Not too heavy (I play standing up) and the neck feels great and plays fast. Really like the bluesy tones from the neck humbucker, middle position is a little muddy, bridge position is AOK. I had the high e string snap at the bridge and found sharp edges on the saddle. I've since filed the slot smooth with a nut file and haven't had a string snap since. The 2 highest strings were also grabbing a little at the nut so I've cleaned up the nut a little with some fine files, used a bit of pencil graphite in the slots and everything is now fine. The string action is really low (how I like it!) but there was a little fret buzzing. I checked over the fretboard with a fret rocker and found 3 high frets (I've since filed them down). Some of the high frets are a little gritty and could do with a polish (though just playing more will most likely smooth them out just fine) and some of the fret ends are a little sharp but it's nothing major. For the price I've been more than happy to deal with these issues (I actually enjoy it!). All in all I'm really happy with the purchase. It's just so much guitar for the money!

Piece of shit

By: jeff on 24 April 2018

This thing came two months after I ordered it, the tuner didn't work, strap broke at a gig, no picks, and the box was kicked in. This guitar is a nightmare too, I took it out of the box and what do you know? the neck was bent, so when I started playing, the first, second and third fret, would buzz. not only that, all of the knobs were loose and half hanging out, when I opened it up the shitty wiring job was clogging everything. I am extremely disappointed with this purchase, i might as well just throw the money in the bin. I truely thought an Austrailian company wouldn't dick me over like this. Thanks Artist for your shit product.

Lp 60 guitar.

By: Mike Turner on 21 February 2018

This is an excellent choice for seasoned guitarists as well as starters, who dont lose sleep over American brand names. Very solid in construction and lovely gloss finish. The feel of the neck should be the most important feature to look closely at, and this one is very straight, solid and fairly wide. ( nearly a D shape ) which feels very comfortable to grasp. It ialso sports a set neck which makes the whole guitar nicely streamlined. The Wilkinson pickups have a nice sounding touch too. The bridge is standard ABR type, and intonates well, with steel saddles, and plenty of adjustment in either direction One star off for the pickups being very slightly off centre, and the tuners which dont hold the guitar in tune for very long, but for the price, you definitely get your bang for the buck, and a guitar you will want to keep, especially after the tuners, and a scrach plate bracket upgrade.

Bought for son and he is loving his latest addition. He started with an acoustic from artist guitars a few years ago and both have been great quality, value packed extras , prompt delivery, and awesome sound.

Excellent buy.

By: Charlie on 4 November 2015

Ordered this guitar via a friend in Brizzy, since I'm in Solomon Islands. First impression out of the box, looks smaller than I thought, but was proved otherwise. The glossy finish was stunning. All accessories included-nothing missing. Hooking up tuning was never a hassle - straight forward. I'm playing my new guitar everyday since it arrived last week. The response from Raul and the other guy, sorry cant remember his name was super. I just hope they send directly to Solomon Islands. Would benefit a lot of musicians here, that's for sure. Would definitely recommend it to friends. thanks again guys. Will send some more orders soon. Best guitar!!
