because of your reviews and guitar max I bought a firefly. as a builder of fine wood work for 50 years It amazes me how they can do it! how many guitars do I need? just one more. enjoy your videos, thank you for tsking the time to share!

I love these guitars! For anybody that's budget conscious Firefly make some great guitars. Sure they might need a little tweaking when you get them, but that's nothing. I've spent lots more money on guitars and had to do even more setup. Take a chance and check out some of these Firefly guitars
@@MollysDemise Thanks so much for stopping in and sharing your thoughts. Firefly indeed has some great instruments and for the price point, surprisingly good!! Truly appreciate your stopping into the channel…much thanks! 🎸👍

Good Saturday evening dear Jimmy, another great guitar from this brand. Golden HW goes very well with sunburst. The price is unbelievably very good, unbelievably. The sound is absolutely OK. My best regards, Pavel CZ.👍👍👍

I have a firefly that I received last month and really enjoy playing it. Wish I was able to place it side by side with the exact guitar to compare the veneer just to see if it is truly veneer and not something manufactured.

Jimmy, Here’s one that isn’t a Les Paul, Strat, Tele or SG. On Reverb a Silvertone 1303 U2 reissue is being offered by Pro Audio Star for $169 shipping included, I offered and bought for $160 delivered. I always wanted a Danelectro, they were sold as Silvertone at Sears Roebuck and Airline at Montgomery Ward. All I can say is “ What a great little guitar!” Made by Samick in Indonesia, has some modern upgrades, not Masonite AND a bridge you can intonate. Still retains the distinctive Danelectro sound and look. Just a heads up and as always “ Keep ‘em comin’!”😊
@@mjvicc1952 Thanks for the “heads-up”…I have my Danelectro Convertible (which I really do enjoy) and reviewed it here on the channel a couple years ago. Congrats and enjoy it man! 🎸👍
Thanks for the video. I just purchased one of these. The bridge is different, it actually has fine tuners on the bridge. Strange. I am having some issues with it staying in tune. I have ordered some locking tuners and hopefully it helps the tuning issue. It is a beautiful guitar.
@@johnnyanderson8901 Hi Johnny…thanks so much for watching and commenting. Interesting…did you order from Amazon or from GuitarsGarden? Could be from a different batch? If you have not already done so, restring it with your preferred strings and gauge. Will certainly help any issues you may have with tuning problems. I have found that tuning issues are usually corrected with strings/proper nut slots and a decent setup. Tuners are not normally your culprit. Regardless, congrats on yours and enjoy it!

I am not a fan of the v or the x style guitar but I do like the looks of this one it has a nice appeal to it and the guitar player is really good at making it sound good.

I cant say i care for either . Just the fact that the bindings color on the bodies dont match the neck. Looks like white on the neck, and cream on the body. The other issue with these is trying to find a form fitting hard case to fit it. A Gibson case doesnt work. They are a great affordable guitar though.

You need a stand where you can adjust the bottom holders, or a “hanging stand” like the one I use for it.
