This should probably be the first guitar for beginners. I bought it about 4 years ago and it was also my first electricguitar. The guitar has a really good sound with 5-way toggle that allows you to play all kinds of music with different tones. The Humbucker & Single Coil Middle Pickup produce great sound with very low noise.
I felt lucky that I chose this guitar as my first electric. The guitar is well structured and I can play up down the fret, bend the strings and do all other advanced technique with ease and the sound it produces is great. Until now, sometimes I still take it out from to jam with friends and the sound is still the same after 4 years. However, the guitar requires well maintained condition.

Advantages: Good for beginners with a little experience Disadvantages: Not for complete beginners
This is a good DVD for anyone who wants to get started on the electricguitar, and begin to play things a bit more complicated to impress friends and family.

Advantages: Beautiful sound, playability and look Disadvantages: Disadvantages?!
So I'm sat here in my room at my halls of residence playing on my acoustic electricguitar, when it hit me..."could I review this on Ciao?"...yes, I could!!
Applause Guitars are the younger brother of guitar manufacturers Ovation, who have been making trustworthy guitars for over 30 years now, and here have used this experience to make a guitar that doesn't sound like a guitar that is as cheap as this, but is a high-quality product.
My model number is actually the AE 28, rather than the 64, but trust me, from what I know about Ovations and what else I can work out, there are no differences here except the numbers!
I brought it in November last year from a local music retailers, who I purchased my two other guitars (both electric), so trusted them fully when they recommended me this offering, and they've not let me down ...
