| Customer Reviews: What a disaster ... March 31, 2009 S. L. Hooper (Qld, Australia) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Have had the amigo for some time now, and it is as good as a conversation piece, to hang on the wall, or torture my friends as a joke when we're bored.
I bought this with high hopes after reading a few reviews. I bought a Washburn Rover at the same time and have Amazon reviewed that too.
Pros:
It looks great for a small, travel guitar. The tear-drop design is a winner to hold as well.
The Amigo has remarkable volume (for its size) compared to Washburn Rover.
Cons:
The sound is horrible. Now in fairness, maybe it is my one or the batch (28 June 2007), but the neck is out, it never stays in tune, and the wood it is made from is cheap and nasty. The fret board I doubt is rosewood and looks like its been painted the same colour, except for where it has chipped away.
The strings it came with were horrible, and going off another review I replaced them with classical nylon strings, but this hasn't made it any better to play or hear.
Would I sell it? Probably not unless someone offered $50 for it. I like to have it serve as a reminder to go with my intuition and not to buy things i do not need. It looks nice sitting around though, as a piece of art.
Compare this to the Washburn Rover and I say spend the extra $$$ and will surely not regret it. The Rover comes in a good package.
I had real high hopes for the Amigo and was keen to help out the Romanians, but this is seriously one of the most useless instruments I have ever purchased.
