Solar Guitars A2.6 LN

There were many fears that the instrument could be damaged when the guitar was delivered from Germany to Moscow. However, the Thomann employees I spoke to by mail convinced me not to worry, as all shipments are insured. Well ... I took a chance! The guitar was delivered in 7 days safe and sound. The packaging was sturdy, so there was minimal chance of damage in transit.

Now about the guitar itself. The instrument is powerful and very well thought out in terms of ergonomics: you can reach 24 frets without any problems. The appearance is amazing. Matte non-marking body, well-thought-out shape: it is convenient to play both in a sitting position and while standing. The color is very bright and stylish. Exactly what I wanted. Now I'm thinking of putting neon orange strings on it.

In my opinion, Duncan Solar humbuckers are not best pickups, but for their price segment they are great for heavy sound. Anyway, with a good combo amp, the guitar sounds really great! And if you also choose the right pedal ...

In general, for its price segment, the Solar A2 guitar is very cool in terms of materials of manufacture and electronic body kit. And by the way, even though the guitar is aimed at heavy music, you can easily tune it to get an acoustic guitar-like surround sound for home gatherings with guests. In this regard, I would call this guitar very versatile.

P.S.: I would like to express my gratitude to the store staff (Raluca Kokris, Andre Rammig and Katarina Blum) who answered my questions before ordering. Thank you all for the excellent service and competent approach to working with clients. I liked everything, so I will continue to order new products from you for my music studio.

P.P.S.: It's a shame that I can't write a review in Russian. :) I am sure that there are many Russian-speaking buyers among the audience of the thomann.de store.
