  • Lots to love for an affordable price!
Color: Brown
I wanted to share my experience with the Ashthorpe C-85. Is this a perfect guitar, no. However, there is a lot to like about this item. First and foremost, this guitar is intended for a beginner to intermediate player on a budget looking for a thinline, parlor, or concertina style body. This particular model offers a 3" body with a 20 fret neck, similar in length to a dreadnaught. The sound is great. It is bright and rich with full treble and midtones. The low end is a bit tempered but as good as any parlor and concertina body I have played. Honestly, the sound is the best feature of this guitar, I was blown away. The guitar I recieved had 2/64 neck relief out of the box. The plastic nut was perfect. When playing strings on the first and second fret it was in perfect pitch when matched against a Snark Super Tight tuner. The plastic saddle is slightly high for my taste, but to be expected on a guitar out of the box. Good manufacturers err to the high side and this one is as it should be from a good manufacturer. During my setup I only needed to take 3/64 off the saddle to get 4/64 string height at the low E and 5/64 string height at the high E when measured at the 12th fret. I play with low action so this isn't a necessity, only my taste. The guitar is definitely comfortable and playable out of the box. The electronics function as expected and actually sound nice. I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised at the analog sound reproduction offered in this unknown kit. The not so good: the tuners are sealed, unlocking, hollow shaft. That said, the function as they should and hold tune fairly well. The ink/dye on the fret board bled over to the binding surrounding it (pictured). I was able to remove with some 600 wet/dry paper, which leads me to believe it is rosewood only in color, not in material, but again, this guitar plays and sounds great, so take it for what it is, not for what it isn't. There was some fret sprout and one of the frets (11th) was noticably shorter than the others. I hit the edges with a drywall sanding sponge and smoothed out all the edges and it's hardly noticable now (pictured). This also served to remove any tooling marks left from manufacturing. Otherwise, the frets topside aren't very gritty and play well. A 30 minute play in and they good to go. The finish on the body looks like the images in the listing and it's pretty good. The one area of notice was the finish on the back of the neck where there was a bit of orange peel in the clear finish (pictured). No big deal, but it was there until I rubbed it out with some 1200 wet/dry paper and polished back up with some compound. Summary: I dressed the neck with a cheap inlay kit adding some flair and character to an otherwise unremarkable looking budget piece. Now it unmistakably mine and I'm very happy, even just looking at it. It plays fantastic and sounds amazing for this price point. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the value this guitar offers and would recommend to anybody, as long as you know that you are getting some unusual material choices (I would identify them, but I have no idea). That said, they work well together, whatever they are. I'm not a brand snob or a purist, otherwise I wouldn't have taken a chance on this. I just know value and sound, and this guitar checks both those boxes, punching well above its weight class. I would give it a fair sound comparison to intermediate Ibanez, Yamaha, Alvarez, or Breedlove acoustic sound quality (maybe others, but I'm familiar with these Asian mainline manufacturers). To look at it, one might underestimate the potential this guitar offers, but don't. If your only looking to spend $120 on an acoustic/electric, choose this guitar. Don't even think about it, do it! ... show more

  • Very lightweight, easy to play, for beginners or advanced
Color: Red
I'm a professional musician & guitar teacher. I started playing in 1966, and started teaching in 1988. I've owned a few high end guitars, and have played some very inexpensive guitars as well, mostly students' guitars. Some were horrid, and some were great. This guitar arrived two days after I ordered it (surprise!!), and I checked it out immediately. It's a crap shoot with an inexpensive guitar (or sometimes with a more expensive guitar). The first thing I always check is the intonation, and the accuracy going up the neck. I do this with an electronic tuner, and amazingly, the intonation was close to perfect. The finish on my guitar (the clear coat gloss finish) appeared to have some imperfections (very small bubbles, or rough spots), but all in all, it's a nice guitar for the money. A good value. I kept the strings on it that came with it, but I'll change them to a better brand - maybe Silk & Steels, light or medium gauge. I play one hour shows at several nursing homes in my area, and this sounds pretty darn good through a small (15w) amp. It doesn't have a built in tuner, but I just clamp a Snark to the headstock. No problem. If you're looking for a nice guitar that is easy to play, looks OK, and doesn't cost a whole lot, get one of these Ashthorpe guitars. They're a great value! ... show more

  • Beginner's Guitar with Some Drawbacks
Color: Red
First and foremost, this guitar is a beginner's guitar. That being said, it is excellent for a beginner. Once the strings are upgraded, this guitar sounds better than expected and comes with a decent bag too. Only problem I had was that I was unable to lower the action on the guitar, even with WD-40 it wouldn't loosen. However, if you're trying to lower or raise the action you're probably going to want a better guitar anyway, so not much of an issue. Overall, great value for the money. ... show more

  • Beautiful Notes
Color: Natural
I ordered this as an early birthday present for myself to learn to play, it sounded amazing but after a day or so I realized it had a crack along the neck. Contacted customer service they sent me a whole new kit, no problem, so now I have some spare picks and strings. Had it for a few weeks now it’s for sure worth every dollar. The strings don’t really tear up the hands so you can finger pick if you want. Comes with picks, strings, a strap, batteries, a case, everything besides a capo and an amp which pair very well with this. I’d suggest GuitarTuna for anybody buying this to tune up (it does not come tuned at all). Honestly though after playing $800 guitars at the store, this one is 10/10 for value and I’m perfectly content for at least my first year. 100% would recommend this to someone new, was actually shocked at the quality for a $100 electric acoustic guitar kit. ... show more
