Great guitar. Action is at a good level but I can understand some might want it lower. Good sustain and a beautiful sound. Comes with a good case also.
For the price, I should give it 5 stars, but I love AT headphones now and I hope this feedback gets to them. They have it right sonically, for the price: this is a very good sounding headphone. The comfort is okay, but the padding is a little thin and after a few hours there is a touch of pressure on the ears. My BIG suggestion is that they, like other manufacturers of BT headphones, make the power on button tactile so that can find it when it's on your head. The button are very hard to tell apart. I actually had to void my warranty by gluing a rough piece of plastic onto the power button so I could find it - it saves me having to take them off and squinting to find the right button each time I activate them or power them down.
The light is good with the ability to adjust the brightness depending on conditions.
The maneuverable arm is quite long and tends to slowly lower over time. But generally, it works well and it wasn't too expensive.
Plays great, sounds great. Very happy with this LS 16. Excellent service from Better Music. Delivered in 4 days. 👍

Beautiful instrument ! lovely tone and resonance, excellent fret board and nice to play.

I bought this during Better Music's annual sale. At the price I paid, it is simply the best value electric guitar I've ever purchased - out of a total of at least 50 guitars over several decades. The guitar arrived in Brisbane in less than a week, despite very inclement weather (heavy rain and flooding in Qld). Delivery was via StarTrack, which in my experience is easily the best courier operating in a world full of Mickey Mouse couriers. The delivery driver actually rang my doorbell rather than dump the parcel, photograph it, and run away.
The guitar's fit and finish are virtually flawless. The paint is perfect. To be hypercritical, the frets could do with a 10-minute polish to remove some black marks from them and really make them shine. I'll do that when I change the strings, which are 11s and rather too heavy for my liking, as I'm used to 9s and 10s. I lowered the action significantly, which was a two-minute task using the thumbwheels on the bridge. The fingerboard, described on Guild's website as Indian rosewood, and by Better Music as pau ferro, is of good quality if a little light in colour if it's rosewood. The tuners are absolutely excellent, holding tune even when Guild's version of its Bigsby is used vigorously. The pickups sound really, really good, giving excellent bass and treble response. To me, they sound better when not coil split but splitting them obviously adds additional variety to the guitar's sound. I've played Telecasters almost exclusively for the last few years but the Guild's humbuckers make me think I've been missing out tonally. Unlike some Gibson humbuckers, the Guild's are never dull and in need of a treble boost.
In terms of overall quality, this Indonesian Guild is equal to, or possibly better than, a Korean Gretsch Electromatic 5020t I've owned and loved for at least a decade, yet it cost several hundreds of dollars less than that Gretsch's current retail price. It's not as loud acoustically as the Gretsch - the Guild's body is thinner and its f-holes are narrower. I tend to keep the Gretsch on my couch and play it acoustically. However, if you're looking for a versatile, retro looking guitar which sounds great, I can recommend the Guild without reservation.
P.S. I note from Guild's website that this colour is now discontinued, which might explain why it was such a bargain price in the recent sale. It's my only white guitar and looks great with its contrasting black fittings/headstock.
It is an excellent stand. The foam padding is a lovely edition and the red stained wood perfectly matches the side wood panels of my Nord Stage 2 88 EX. The only thing is it is VERY expensive for just a wood and metal stand. Could be cheaper. Almost $300
