As for trying guitars out in a store I am of the belief that first of all I'm not going to actually buy the demo that's hanging on the wall at GC anyway. I'll try it out and if I like it I'll tell them I want a new unopened one. I know a lot of people claim that you have to try a bunch out before you get one that sounds right...maybe for different types but if I'm trying a Fender MIM Strat and I like it I can't beleive that the one the bring out that's unopened is going to be a piece of crap..if it is I'll return it or have it tweaked.]]> Opinions and Polls cnev https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/ever-read-a-bad-online-guitar-review/#post-233819 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/ever-read-a-bad-online-guitar-review/#post-233812 Tue, 13 Mar 2007 20:28:04 +0000 Opinions and Polls Oenyaw https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/ever-read-a-bad-online-guitar-review/#post-233812 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/ever-read-a-bad-online-guitar-review/#post-233752 Tue, 13 Mar 2007 08:02:43 +0000
I've played expensive name brand guitars that were great and others that were garbage.

Some people swear by cheap and others say that unless you buy expensive, you are wasting your money.

Pick any of them up and play it, if it feels good, sounds good, looks good, then it must be good!

most of those reviews come from people who bought them, very seldom are the reviews done by people who just review guitars.

The most important aspect is that most of the criteria is subjective. What one person likes in tone, another won't. If they didn't, they won't buy the guitar, and they probably won't review it either. It's all pretty meaningless, the real key is to play the guitars and decide for yourself. Even things like 'finish', which you'd expect to be 100% objective, also depend on the personality of the player. I like my AAA flame top Les Paul, some people don't, and prefer the standard look, which I can't stand. I want my finish to be totally smooth and without any marks, others feel that dents and marks add "character" to the guitar.
