Symphony Guitars

[BrokenWingz]

i was at Woodlands and theres this Symphony Music Skool ... saw some interesting guitars in dat brand!

some were ibanez copies, fender copies and if i can remember an LP copy too!

Are this guitars any good? anyone uses/used them before? can someone put up some reviews/comments or advise abt it!

They look pretty tempting to buy lei!

Cheers!

use to have a symphony classical guitar..
its decent enuff w/o a decent tone..
but its plywood...
decent in e sense the frets are nicely done w/o intonation problems like you'll most prob see on the tgm.. but electric i got no experience..

cheers in ur research..

but again.. if the price isnt really that cheap.. why not save slightly more and get the real stuff with much better quality?

eh... I condemn that shop years ago...

They sell regular stuff more expensive (eg strings, guitar polish)

I also have seen their guitars but was not impress as it does have uneven frets and also bad gear ratio. Had a friend who owns one of the acoustic guitar but its tunning head is stiff and gear ratio is lousy.

Not really impress when I look closer at the guitar.

Go try it out and see how it feels. The last I went there was a long time ago.

Cheers!

a quick look at Ibanez Artcore Custom guitars will change your perception about china made guitar.

i have similar dislike for that shop, also pertaining to price issues.

buyer: why are your strings priced higher than other shops?

seller: the prices are like that, we can't help it.

buyer: can't be, these 2 same string sets are bought from 2 different shops, only 40c difference, unlike yours- nearly $2 more expensive (buyer shows 2 packet of strings bought from 2 other shops with price tags as proof).

seller: you have to talk to my manager about this

buyer: i've already e-mailed him many times, he has not replied. i don't think he will. (buyer walked out of store leaving behind the above-mentioned 2 empty packet of strings on store counter).

 

[BrokenWingz]

Haha ... dat shows how "symphony" goes with their customer services too!

I've mentioned this before, but will say it again. Symphony sells Blue Steels for 15.75.

You get them Blue Steels at 8bucks from Davis. :evil:
