Phoebus PG-30 NCE Review

TL;DR

Sound is superb, great, awesome even though it has laminated top. I love it. It feels sturdy. The Fishman Presys pups sounds awesome too! (see Soundcloud recording below).

Price range: Php 6900 (w/out the Fishman pickups) – 9500(w Fishman Presys I) . Bought on Lazada from Guitar Pusher. Visit their website here. Or their Lazada store here.

This acoustic guitar is pretty much suited for beginners and professionals alike. Although I’m not a pro myself, but the specs are pretty good for this guitar within its price range.

I bought this to replace my RJ Dreadnought Quilted series, since its bridge is starting to come off from the body, and that’s not good because when you’re playing it might come off. And that’s not very likely. I can take it to an expert or a luthier, but the cost and the shipping fee would be wayyyyy more expensive that the price of the guitar.

When I got Phoebe(I named it Phoebe, because of Phoebus. Yep. I had a hard time thinking of that name.), I tested it out immediately, and voila. I was amazed! It feels great on the neck, and the sound is great even without using the pickups.

If you’re looking for a “budget-friendly” guitar, or maybe a little bit over your typical budget guitar, this one should definitely be on your list! Not to mention the great support and customer service from Guitar Pusher, this guitar is definitely a winner for me.
