This is the least expensive guitar I’ve ever reviewed! At just $45, this guitar costs less than my monthly phone bill! Incredibly, it’s totally playable and actually quite nice looking. Featuring a laminated spruce top and basswood back and sides, plus a 20 fret rosewood fretboard, this is a rock solid, no-frills, acoustic bargain!

Demo / Tutorial: Dragonfire Screamers Swapped Into The Chibson!
In keeping with the low-budget build theme, in this video we swap in a set of Dragonfire Screamers, in place of the stock, non-wax potted pickups that were originally in the $170 Chibson Les Paul. The results are astounding! This bargain priced ($35) set of pickups really wakes up this fake LP and provides a noticeable increase in bottom-end thickness as well as a night and day difference in feedback control.
This video has not only a review and demo but an install tutorial as well!
