Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
There are no rough edges, no signs of glue, and the stain and striping are all well done.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
In three weeks of daily plucking, it's doing great. If it was a chicken, it'd be bald by now, but the LU21 is begging for more.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
In spite of the low, introductory price, the LU21 feels like a fine musical instrument, and therefore is a good value.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Everything about it feels fine.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Acoustically speaking, it has a very nice sound.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
It flat out looks good, and people notice it in the room.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Solid feel. Maybe the strings are a bit on the soft side, but I'm not an expert. It sounded good once I tuned her up.
