This was an awesome 12 string for the price, it's a beautiful guitar, love the on-board tuner it plays great, good feel to the neck, really pleased ,action is low which is another plus, you don't have to spend a lot of setup time, sound is off the hook, once strings are stretched stays in tune well, but I will change them out to a lighter gage, I would recommend it if you're looking to get into a well built 12 string at good price

The guiatr seemed much better construction and bass sound than I expected, but was compeltely unplayable. No truss rod either. Could tune most strings at all- never tested apparently.

For what you get, this is a pleasantly well put together purchase. It's not without it's finishing flaws, mainly around the binding and nut, but it plays well and stays in tune. I like that it has a solid spruce top, not laminated. So, it resonates well. I pulled it out, tuned it up, and played the forbidden 12 string songs a bit. So far no issues. I did notice a few of the tuners slipping here and there, when tuning up, but they're holding tune through multiple songs, so it's not a big issue. With a little elbow polish, this will be a perfect instrument. I'll be putting it on my workbench and doing a full setup and cleanup soon. I'll update here, in the future, if there are any issues that come up later on.The additional stuff - the additional things, like the capo, picks, strap, and cable are what really sold me on this purchase. The capo is well made. The strap is meh, but it works, and the cable is of much higher quality than what you usually get with these kits. I'm not using the strap, as it's not padded, but I'm using the rest of the kit. They even throw in an extra set of strings for you. I'll be putting elixirs on, but the strings aren't bad either. No black fingers.If you are looking for a really well put together first 12 string guitar, and don't want to put a lot of money into it, then this is the one I'd recommend. You get everything you need to get started.

As stated in first review, I received my order in a very timely manner. The guitar was packed very well and is beautiful. I originally gave it two stars because of the sharp overhanging frets and it cut a finger. After I got over being very upset and posting a poor review, I done some filing, cleaning up and started playing. The neck is straight, intonation is plus or minus a couple cents off but plays beautifully, sounds beautiful. For the price it’s very nice. I will be putting some lighter gauge strings on it but it came with an extra set and I hate to let anything go to waste. As it is the guitar is very playable. For a beginner and you want a nice cheaper guitar, this may be it. Just hope this was a quality miss and a younger player won’t get their finger cut.

This guitar does not come from Fesley. If you are expecting a Fesley from the description in the ad, you will be disappointed.

Never before have I come across a 12-string kit as cool as this for less! Fesley’s 12-string acoustic guitar has a nice, comfortable neck, and the strings sound beautiful! I just can’t resist playing the Byrds and Tom Petty on this one over and over again. The black finish gives the guitar a super-classy look, the preamp is easy to use, and the volume from the dreadnought body is excellent. Having the output jack off to the side makes it easier to slip a strap over the rear strap button. In addition, Fesley provides a complete pack of accessories! We’re talking a cable, choice of two pickguards, Allen wrenches, picks, capo, string winder, polish cloth, and extra strings! Even the foam blocks in the package make great blocks for sanding wood on my guitar builds! A super package deal without breaking the bank! I highly recommend this guitar to 12-string enthusiasts of all experiences!

This guitar is what it says it is. I watched several reviews on YouTube before buying it. Although I questioned the reviews at the time for being mostly positive, they were honest. This guitar is punching well above its price. Two of the criticisms about it were tuners and ruff fret ends. I did not find either to be an issues. The guitar stays in tune. No complaints with the stock strings. Yes the bridge pins are plastic and the nut and saddle are synthetic bone but the top is solid spruce and the body is mahogany plywood. Big resonating sound for small dollars. Tried the pick up at church tonight and it works. Tuner is very convenient. I’m considering another one for a friend. Jury is out on how it will ware over time, but I got almost nothing in it.Update: I have also removed six strings and evaluated this guitar as a standard guitar. As such, I had to loosen the truss rod by a turn to adjust for less tension on the neck. As a standard guitar it provides a wider neck for large fingered people (like me). With light strings it still resonates well and the action is good. Now I have a guitar with a 12 string option that has a pick up and tuner. It plays equally well as a six string. Still very happy with my purchase.

I compared product reviews and item description before purchase to the Vangoa which is made of plywood more or less, and Fesley is real wood, AAA spruce top, mahogany and sapele as I compared the two 12 string guitars. Based on that plus the Fesley has a built-in tuner and the Vangoa does not, I got the Fesley and am pleased and got pretty much what I expected. The tuners are not so good, tight then loose, hopefully will smooth out with use. Also, some sharp fret ends, easy fix with sand block. On the plus side, holds tune well, came set up with no fret buzz and very low action. The action is the lowest I've ever had on an acoustic and a very welcome surprise on a 12 string and the built-in tuner, so convenient. Also, sounds great, very jingle-jangale, resonate and easy to play. No learning curve required as I never had a 12 string before and it seems no different than a 6 aside from wider neck and, surprisingly not as hard on the fingers as a 6. I chose the beautiful sunburst, and it is very impressive, flawless finish. Comes with nice padded gig bag, metal capo, picks, 9v battery, cleaning cloth, extra pickguard? extra strings and strap. At $143 on Black Friday, would be hard to beat, well-made and a lot of guitar worth much more than the current price tag around $200.
