Hadean EA-100 CSB Semi Hollow Body Guitar

Plays easy.Quite loud for an electric.Fit and finish are very good.Action is good. Will lower just a bit in the future.Only down side is the frets need some attentionFret ends are very rough and need to be attended to.Also frets need to be polished.Have only had it for an hour.So, a excellent guitar for the money.

I was really hoping this guitar would work out for me. I needed something that was easy to play, and somewhat of a "couch" guitar. Something to have laying around the house, ready to play at any moment. In appearance it seemed to be the perfect fit, until I tried playing it. Out of the box, the back bow was so severe that once I tuned it up, all the notes fretted out and choked out. I made an adjustment to the truss rod, and fortunately it started to play notes more clearly. I plugged it in to check out the sounds, and just started noodling, just to get a sense of how good the preamp and piezo were. To be honest I was pretty satisfied. As I played along, I started getting fret outs again. The 13th and 14th fret played the same note ! I got out my fret rocker and gave it a closer inspection. After finding 7 hi frets I decided enough was enough. It was going to need a complete fret level, with crowning and polishing. Also, the fret edges were the sharpest I have ever experienced. Add on to that, the E and B strings needed tuning every few minutes. The guitar was unplayable, and at $225 that's not ok. Firefly, Squier, Ibanez, all make entry level guitars around that price that are very playable straight out of the box. I'm returning it.

If you're looking for 100% accurate reproduction of a classical tone it isn't that, but if you're looking for an interesting acoustic tone that can be amplified without feedback for fingerstyle guitar or a fun late-night headphone guitar it fills those roles well. Seems to have more sustain than many steel string acoustics and obviously a warmer, rounder tone.The neck had a few spots that warranted attention and the setup could be more to my liking (this is true with pretty much any guitar). The tuners definitely could use an upgrade as they seem to grip inconsistently and not smoothly. at around 7.5 lbs, mine is not as heavy as a Les Paul as some reviews have claimed, but it is certainly true that if you're expecting to be able to use it unplugged, you'll be disappointed unless you're in a very quiet room.Overall I'd say if you are curious about trying a nylon string electric, this is a very good option to go with compared to the Harley Benton, Angel Lopez and others around the <$500 price point. A Godin Multiac is without doubt a better instrument, but if you're not sure how much you'll be using nylon acoustic I would say this with some tweaks gets you more than halfway there for a small fraction of the price. Plus, exactly because this is so inexpensive it should make a great platform for modding and tinkering.

I own several guitars but this is my first nylon string guitar. The solid wood body is amazing and electrics sound great! This is one of my favorite guitars to play, even though I have others that cost 15 times more. If you see it available grab it before it’s gone, they don’t seem to hold stock very long. This is definitely a keeper.

I ordered this guitar with the expectation of having to do work to it. While this is true, I must admit for the money it it not bad. Yes, it is not without issue. Yes, if you have basic knowledge of fixing or upgrading guitars you will appreciate it for what it is. A great base that has potential. With that being said, it is also an opportunity for those who do not repair or do upgrades to get experience without having to scrap an expensive piece of wood. Realistically, this is almost too good to be true. My only complaints are the electronics(oh well, can't have everything for this amount of money.. or could you?) and I live with in an hour of Rondo Music and it took 2 days to receive. If Rondo Music needs someone to screen their outgoing product.. maybe they could use someone like me.. I say send back the junk and make people happy! I will be keeping this one cause I know how to work on guitars and knew pretty much what I was getting into for this amount of money. If you don't know how and want to learn about repairing and making instruments right I also encourage you to be interested. Wondering how long they are going to make this model because I noticed they got rid of the xlr input jack, this one only has 1/4' mono input. I've said enough.. use your common sense when ordering instruments, and really, add the insurance if you buy on Amazon.. Literally the best thing to do when ordering something like this. Peace! Over and out!
