good guitar to mod.
I currently own 2 of these guitars. one black and one white. and had them for about a year. I use a randall satan head and randall thrasher 4x12 cab. when I first purchased this guitar I thought it was going to be some cheap gio like the rest of them but I was really shocked how nice it played. the action was smooth and low out of the box, frets were perfectly leveled, intonation was good and finish was thicker than concrete. its amazing if you play metal or some funky blues style stuff. id recommend this to all levels of players. the only thing that wasn't up to par was the pickups and electronics. they sounded like pure hot garbage. even if they were played through my stack. id recommend some Seymour duncans, emgs, or bareknuckle pickups. I also recommend getting the black one cause the white one gets seriously dirty after playing a show outdoors or just jamming in the house. 4 stars cause of the electronics. (maybe my stock set sucked in the white one, so just try them out. everyones preference is different.)

Good for budget build
So overall this is not a bad guitar, but i wouldn't recommend it to be good to go right out of the box. The tuners and bridge seem pretty cheap. It doesn't hold a tune very well, im typically re tuning the guitar every 20 minutes of playing. The factory pickups aren't horrible but the sound is not anything i would write home about. I replaced the factory pickups with DiMarzio pickups, D-activator bridge and blaze neck. That alone really woke this thing up and made for a much better playing experience, a bridge and tuners will follow to really get this where it needs to be. Th best thing about this is the neck and the cutaway. Neck is super thin very fast, and combined with a 25.5 scale it makes playing fast pace music seamlessly easy. For the price if you dont mind modifying it its not bad, but i dont think its a play it out of the box and make no changes kinda guitar, just a cheap budget builder, and once modded is very fun to play.

Outside of a slight truss rod adjustment and some fret buzz I worked out the setup was basically done. Great sounding seven string for the value. And the white is very clean.

Love the guitar looked great felt great played great but there was a wiring issue and when playing with distortion it would cut out to clean or be half there and muddy then I would adjust the knobs it would come in and out a few taps and it would stay on for 5 minutes I was disappointed off for new outa the box. But for 200 what did I expect a working guitar ? I sent it back I ordered a different guitar from sweet water there gona put the strings on and tune it. But I still want this one so when they refund me I will purchase it again because I want a 7 and what ever is wrong with it I will fix this time for 200 I might as well great looking playing and feel

Hey guys. I have one of these that i had for about 3 years. Along with my GRG170DX, I'm very pleased. I haven't had really any negative experiences with these guitars, a side from needing setup out of the box. But come on, what guitar doesn't need one. Typically guitars aren't shipped set-up. If so it's very poorly done and seems like a beginner is the one who does it. So to respond to the people saying there is fret buzz, it needs a setup, won't stay in tune or/and that the strings are bad and need changed. Well they are just speaking the obvious, even guitars but of a showroom floor is going to need a good setup. So take the time to do so ( it's really not hard, there's all kinds of videos out there to watch), or if you really want have someone do it for you. Once a setup and a string change is done, than this guitar is simply an awesome guitar. I have no tuning issues, string changes are easy. The guitar is balanced nicely, I had a Ibanez AX series 7 string.... That guitar sound good and wasn't a bad guitar. But man was the balance terrible. The neck likes to nose dive on those and the guitar was pretty heavy. So goes to say, I didn't keep it long. I traded it. Got a 8 string. But up against my JP70. My GRG7221 is a decent guitar. Im probably going to drop some Bare Knuckle Juggernauts in the one i have now. But i fine that this guitar has good tone. Fast attack, clarity, and great sustain. As long as you do a setup, and make sure your pickups are not too close to the string( as you should on EVERY guitar, especially the ones you have shipped to you) this is a very nice guitar for the buck. ALOT of bang for your buck,and really underrated. And for some of you out there who is wondering..... Yes it does Djent.
