EART Solide Elektrische Gitaar SSS Single-Coil Pickups, 6 Gitaarsnaren, Rechtshandige Palissander Toets in Rood Voor Pop, Blues, Lichte Rock

Really nice guitar, specially for the price. Is it as good as my MIA Fender? no, but it is really good, I've been playing it for a couple a weeks and I'm liking even more, the stainless steel frets did it for me, the only complain I have is the vibrato/tremolo bar, not the greatest but it gets the job done, I'm looking forward to getting another EART guitar!!

In 2020, there was a spate of reviews for this Eart instrument. Offering stainless steel frets and a roasted neck, it offered impossible to find features at $200 or so price point. Like a lot of people, I tapped this instrument into my cart and left it there because, really, did I need another guitar?I looked at the YouTube reviews again and after a lot of suffering through the cork-sniffing, I came to the conclusion that I was still interested but, again, did I really need a Chinese guitar?This week, Ryan from 60 Cycle Hum posted information that this base model was being offered at an unbeatable price, so I finally gave in and added it back to the cart. What did I have to lose? If it really had stainless frets, I could fix it up well enough for practice and not wear out the instruments I needed for work. The only thing was that it was red and I'm not a fan of red guitars, but for the price, I'd have to be crazy not to get it - if, in fact, it was what it said it was, and if not, oh, well.Well, it came in today. After letting it warm up, I just had to give it a test drive. First impressions were excellent - everything cosmetically was fine - polished fretboard, beautiful frets, comfortable neck, nice matte finish with wood grain visible (even if it's veneer or photoflame, it's tastefully done.) Acoustically, it's loud and I think that's the poplar body. The complaints about the mint green pickguard are, in my opinion, ridiculous - it looks great. Super-smooth neck with a nice edge. Zero buzz and obviously set up from the factory and quite well at about 1.75mm.So, I plugged in. All the controls feel tight and the stock strings are actually pretty good. I started with chromatic runs up and down - nothing, no dead frets, no buzz. Hate to say it, but this hasn't been my experience with either Gibson or Fender, new, out-of-the box. Having to Plek a multi-thousand dollar instrument is a little ridiculous. The tuning was very stable for a cold instrument and stabilised further as it warmed up. No hitching on the bone nut and the tuners are really nice - solid with a good ratio.The pickup tone is very balanced and all the pickups were matched in terms of loudness. Even though these are ceramic pickups, they are not ice-picky. This gave me margin to do EQ to get it where I liked it at the amp. No noise, oddly, and all the controls were quiet. Also, the output jack is on the edge of the instrument, rather than on the top like a Fender or Squire, so the cable is out of the way and if one uses a headphone amp for practice, it should plug right in.You know you have something when you don't need to put it down for hours. Before I knew it, time had disappeared. It is just so comfortable to play. So, knowing I had acclimated to the tone, I swapped to the next nearest thing I had that might be considered to be comparable, a Squire CV Strat. Someone gave me that instrument and I've always really liked the neck and rolled fingerboard. In truth, it's my favourite practice instrument just because it's very comfortable. The CV has brighter pickups for sure and I think that the Eart is more reasonable and balanced and both play great BUT the Eart has silent stainless frets. Uh-oh: looks like the Squire might be spending more time on the hanger in the future!So, I then moved to a Fender Strat with maple neck. Now, I'm a fan of maple necks, but switching between the two had me feeling that I preferred the Eart because although it's rosewood, the surface is polished and just a different experience. Yes, the Strat had a more refined pickup response, but I can always change pickups if I wanted that sound. And after all, one can spend $1500 on a Pro Strat and still want Lollars. The Eart pickups are fine and swappable if one is so inclined, but I think they're peachy as-is.So, for an instrument at this price point, what is Eart trying to do? Lose money? Maybe they're trying to build brand recognition and if so, this is your opportunity to take advantage of that strategy. The fit, finish and feel of this instrument demonstrates to me that Eart not only understands what should go into a quality instrument but that they also have the capability to achieve that goal. What do the kids say today? Respect, Eart!I would go on but I think I'm going to go back out to the studio and play a little more, just because.If you're upgrading your Bullet, or like me, you want a practice instrument that won't wear out, I can't see how, for the price of a pedal, you could possibly go wrong with this instrument. This is obviously constructed to a high standard far beyond the current selling price. And considering Eart have other models, I'm now curious what else is going on, and maybe that's their thinking. Because this one, well, it's a keeper.Is this instrument good for a new or intermediate player? Yes, without reservation. Good for an advanced player? Yes - and stop it now, you know full well that your LP doesn't stay in tune. Do you want to fiddle or do you want to practice? Can you gig with this instrument? Maybe I'm a special case or just lucky but I would say that as-is, out-of-the-box, this instrument is giggable. When I bought a PRS, known for being giggable on delivery, it still needed a little tweaking and that was a few dollars more than the Eart. Really, I'm amazed. There are now more countries when it comes to guitar quality, just brands, and this entry-level Eart is ridiculously good.

YouTubeで欧米にてこのギターの評判がやたらいい事に関心を寄せ、このモデルの他EARTの4種類のモデルを購入（同じモデルで友人の分も含めて複数購入もしたのでEARTのギターは合計10本以上Amazonで順次注文）。発送方法は最初の頃はUPSが多く発送から10日ほど、途中からDHLになり5日前後と早くなり、UPSの頃一度だけ関税がかかり配達到着時に2000円弱支払ったものの、大きなトラブルはなし。製品については、ストラト1本でローズウッドのフィンガーボードにフレットを打ち込む際に誤って打ち込み傷があったことがあり、Amazonを通じてEARTに連絡を入れたら代替のネックを1週間ほどで送っていただきサポートも日本メーカー以上で驚きでした。肝心のギターの品質ですが、私の元に届いた個体に関しては、日本製ギターを含めはっきりいって20万円以上の品質でした！ヤラセでもサクラでもなく、紛れもなく純日本人の私の感想です。マホガニーばかりのボディ（マホガニー好きな私にはもってこい）はど真ん中で合わせられたツーピースであり、アメリカ本国のフェンダーなどとも違い変なところで継ぎ合わせられてはおらず、どのモデルもセンターど真ん中合わせです。ただ、ブックマッチと書かれてはありますが一枚の板を二分割して左右対称の本当の意味のブックマッチではないので、杢目の見えるモデルではボディ左右の木目が全く違う場合がほとんどですが、ひどい杢目の個体には当たったことはなくどれも美しいマホガニーの杢目でした。透けない色の塗装でも、ど真ん中合わせであるのは塗面を見れば塗装表面から感じ取れます。ネックプロファイルとステンレスフレットの仕上がりは、世界中の高価なギターに太刀打ちできる仕上がりで、弾いてみれば凄さがわかります！ステンレスフレットはEARTの説明やサイトではミディアムジャンボと書かれてありますが、実際はJESCARやJIM DUNLOPなどのジャンボサイズにあたりかなり太く高さがありますが、これがまた弾きやすい！軽い力で弦が押せ、音の伸びがやたら良いのです。ピックアップは、ハムバッカーは交換の必要は感じずパワフル、ノイズもありません。シングルコイルのモデルは、セラミックやアルニコVが使われていますが、どちらもノイズはシングルコイルの標準的なノイズ量なので、キャビティに導電塗料を塗りアース線で弦アースをきちんと取ればノイズはゼロにできました（ハイ落ちしますが私は気にならずむしろウォームさがお気に入りに）。シングルコイルのピックアップはどれもややパワーが大人しいので、音色にビンテージさよりパワフルさを求めるならピックアップ交換を視野に入れてください。EARTのギターは総じて、日本製ミドルクラス以上の仕上がりと演奏性があり、中国製という食わず嫌いや偏見を捨てて、いち楽器として冷静に判断すればものすごく「買い」です。価格は送料や世界的物価を反映してじわじわ上がってきます。知名度の低さからわざと価格を抑えていることもあるでしょう。しかしこの製品品質ならばもっと高い価格を設定してもおかしくはありません。むしろ今の価格が親切設定、お買い得価格なのだと思います。そのうちラテンアメリカや欧米でもっと売れ出したら、フェンダーや日本製に肩を並べる価格になるかもしれません（わたしはそれは望みませんが）。とにかく何本もEARTのギターを所有し弾いている私には、この品質と弾きやすさは他メーカーを凌駕していると断言します。

Non è poi così migliore di tante altre nella stessa fascia di prezzo. Bello il manico, ma tanti difetti gravi e meno.aprendo il battipenna trovo la prima sorpresa, penso sia la vite del trast Rod che ha trapassato il body. Ultimi tasti ho dovuto rettificardi. Ho comprato un'altra di colore blu, niente 7 tasti posati male e con delle traccie di colla. Peccato. Volevo proverei la tele style ma visto i precedenti mi astengo a spendere per qualcosa che può avere diversi problemi.

Je ne suis pas un pro mais j'estime qu'un pro trouverait cette guitare extraordinaire.La forme du manche est très ergonomique.Les frets en inox sont très doux et agréables à jouer, leurs extrémités en forme de boule sont très bien pensées et surtout n'accroche pas les doigts.Les micros sont bons.Pont en inox, les réglages très accessibles, à ce sujet, la guitare que j'ai reçu a été bricolée et j'ai dû revoir l'harmonie et la hauteur des cordes, elle a certainement fait l'objet d'un retour, je n'enlève pas d'étoiles car j'ai pû y remédier.J'aime les cordes qui traversent le manche, le trémolo que je n'utilise pas.La finition est magnifique, bois de rose et érable pour le manche, acajou pour le corps, la finition rouge satinée.
