I bought one of these about 1 month ago. For a 12 string, the playing action is so effortless right off the shelf.Can play for hours and my fingers do NOT get weary. The sound is great, and the volume/tone controls are very responsive. The nut appears to be aluminum, I guess that's where the twangy sound comes from. There is a weird vinyl like edge to it, but, that makes it unique. Tuners are good are good. A good low cost axe.

I've had two Ric 330/12s in the past and wasn't satisfied either time. A little research online will tell you all you need to know about the pros and cons of a Rickenbacker. As I'm getting back into serious music again, and having written a decent amount of songs that call for a 12-string, I wanted to see what other options were out there. It came down to the Danelectro or a Gretsch Electromatic. Both are very well reviewed but the Danelectro won out because A) it's got its own quirky look, history and charm B) it's half the price of the Gretsch Electromatic and C) it has a 12-saddle bridge. I ordered a Keeley Compressor pedal to go along with it and I play through a Vox AC30 and... with or without the pedal... this guitar sounds amazing. It's better than I was expecting and in fact better than I'd hoped. The setup is perfect, the intonation is perfect all the way up the neck thanks to the 12-saddle bridge (looking at you Rickenbacker!) and I couldn't be happier. I picked it up Friday afternoon and haven't touched my other guitars since. I'm loving the honeymoon phase and honestly, don't let elitist opinions sway you if you're looking for a good, and affordable, 12-string electric. This little beauty can do everything I want it too and need it too. Lastly, a shout out to Mike, the London South manager. I'd ordered a few things and he went out of his way to make sure everything was in and ready for me to pick up. He's simply great guy to deal with.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
