Excellent Term received a day early. Upgraded from a student guitar(The FAME Guitar). Great sounding plugged in or out(Jasmine ES45C),seems to be built very good. I have big fingers and don"t touch the other strings when playing like I was with the other guitar. Very Satisfied......Garrett

I have used Grover keys before this order and have always been pleased with the performance of these machine heads. If you desire precision, you should be considering Grover.

Epiphone LP Standard Plus-Top Les Paul Collection Electric Guitar, Vintage Sunburst Review

Epiphone LP Standard Plus-Top Les Paul Collection Electric Guitar, Vintage Sunburst
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased mine from Guitar Center about a year ago. Guitar is simply beautiful. For my money there has never been a nicer looking guitar than the Les Paul, it just screams classic rock. Very comfortable to play, it isn't a Gibson, but most players don't have the money to purchase a Gibson when they are first starting.
The only minor complaint being the stock pick-ups are little muddy. I added a couple of Seymour Duncan humbuckers and had the action lowered which greatly improved the sound and ease of playing. Play this guitar through a Line 6 Flextone and you can have really good tone for under a grand.

Sperzel 3x3 Satin Chrome Locking Machine Heads Review

Sperzel 3x3 Satin Chrome Locking Machine Heads
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently had to replace my old machine heads as one of them would not stay put, slowly letting the string slip out of tune.These are worth the money, and the little bit of time you will take to put them into a guitar that has previously had another brand/style of machine head on them.They really do make string changes easier, the locking mechanism is like having a third hand.You also don't have to wrap the string around the peg any longer.You pull the string through the hole, clamp it down with the lock, cut off the excess and tune it up-your done.If needed you could easily still drop it down to a d tuning, Im not sure about a c.If I try it out Ill update this review to let you know.
The frosted silver look is very nice, I think it makes my guitasr look a bit classier.The tuners dont have as much hieght as the last set did, which is something else I like.This set comes in a few color options too, so you can match it to your guitar however you want.Ive seen blue, gold, black, silver, and black and gold.
When installing, you may need to drill new holes into your guitar.Don't get too stressed.Make sure that the holes are not tight, but allow the pin to slip into the hole easily.I tried it with a tight fit and the guide pins got stuck and came out, and I had to fix it. The big holes where the tuning pegs are going to go in also may need to be a bit bigger, and the general way I have read online is that people have simply taken some thin sandpaper, rolled it into a tube, and slowly went at it to add the extra space needed.I luckily did not need to do this.But if you read this and thought you would be comfortable drilling holes in your own guitar, go for it.

Gold Tone BUT Tenor Banjo Ukulele (Vintage Brown) Review

Gold Tone BUT Tenor Banjo Ukulele (Vintage Brown)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is what I sent to Goldtone. It pretty much tells the story...
I just got one of your Banjo-Ukes tenor in vintage brown today, new from Amazon.com. I have a few suggestions:
1. Use better strings like Aquila.
2. Make sure your easy-string tailpiece is deburred, since mine cut right through the cheap original strings upon bringing up to tune. The strings had been knotted on a no-knot tailpiece which contributed to them breaking. I bought some $10.00 Aquilas after spending an hour de-burring the tailpiece and restringing without knots. Directions should have been provided explaining the proper stringing on a no-knot tailpiece.
3.If you ship with the bridge flat, some directions should be included as to placement, intonation, etc. Perhaps a a slip of paper under the strings.
4.The resonator back has a filler piece in the binding like someone cut it too short. The resulting joints should be finished more smoothly. The wood has waves and indentations which indicates the need of a better sanding job. I had to refinish it.
5. The threaded inserts that hold the resonator back on were stripped out in the maple pot. I had to remove, apply thin CA/superglue and reinstall. That could be done at the factory to harden the wood.

Good points:
A very nice neck and geared tuners.
I honestly can't say the quality justifies the price.

Wittner Quartz Metronome Review

Average Reviews:

Works great both as a metronome and as a tone generator. I particularly appreciate the volume control.
Feels solid in the hand - quality construction. Also a nice feel to the rotary dial (selects metronome beat and tone generator frequency).
NO COMPLAINTS!
