Is this a FULLY HOLLOW or is it a SEMI HOLLOW guitar?

BEST ANSWER: This is a semi hollow body guitar. It arrived several weeks ago. I own over 20 guitars all of which are American Fenders, Gibsons Gretch and PRS. It is a very good value with good action and intonation. The frets needed to be polished and the tuning pegs needed tightening , the posts that hold the bridge in place needed some glue as they were loose. Once I made all the adjustments it became a fairly decent playable guitar probably worth twice the price. Don't expect this to be as good as a Gibson ES 335 which would cost 10 times as much.

Because it feels heavier in the rear than I anticipated I expect it is NOT fully hollow. I think there is a solid beam going right down the middle inside. It might be the hardware however but I don't remember my Gibson ES330 being that rear heavy but that was many years ago.

If you read the Monoprice description of this guitar, you'll see that it is a real "hollowbody guitar. Of course, it needs to have some internal blocking and bracing to make it sturdy, and this guitar has that.

I recently bought one. They would be considered Semi-Hollow since there is support for the neck running through the body of the guitar. I have several guitars and this guitar is really a great value.

I bought the Tele style guitar, and I replaced the pickups without playing them. You may think this invalidates my opinion, but no; everything that matters on these guitars rocks! The frets are nice (sand the edges of need be) the neck is the fastest and smoothest I’ve encountered, and the body is heavy and high quality. I replaced tuners and pickups, but I have $200 into this guitar, and it outplays anything less than a g&l. Squier and other knockoffs don’t stand a chance. I do plan to buy many many more guitars from monoprice!

You want to play an electric guitar, UNamplified?.
It will sound like any unamplified electric guitar: horrible.
I can only guess that you're confusing a hollow body guitar with the latest acoustic-electric guitars(Yamaha makes some models I believe) that can be played both acoustically and then as an electric guitar?.
This guitar is not such a design.

It's a solid core for sure but I am presuming laminated mat's for back and sides given the price. I will tell you this guitar plays wonderfully, action, feel and tone - so for the price I don't think you can go wrong if they are set up this way.

Would a pickguard design for the Gibson ES-335 fit this guitar?
A shopper
on Sep 3, 2019
The distance between the plastic pickup surrounds is 2 3/8 inch. That is the same as the distance for the Les Paul and the ES I think. Pick guards are cheep and so is this guitar so try it. The mounting bracket is adjustable. You can always cut a custom guard yourself if you have to.

Indio Boardwalk-What a delightful surprise!
I saw a revue of this guitar on youtube by Darrel Braun; and for the price it sounded almost too good to be true. I took delivery of the boardwalk and I was amazed at the quality of the build and sound, except for the tuning screw machine. Lots of guts when connected to my fender twin reverb 85 watt amp. Well worth the investment for $250.

Exceding All Expectations!
I viewed an online video that suggested this was a worthy instrument, so I took the gamble myself and was blown away by the quality given the cost. It arrived with gig bag as described and at first seemed a bit wonky. I put it on the work table. Oiled the fretboard, adjust the intonation, truss rod and bridge height with a new set of strings and tone, action and feel is really good. Pick ups are a bit weak but sound clear. Well made and a great value.

nice guitar
I'll start by saying that the build and the finish are near perfect.
First thing I did was to remove the factory strings.
I then lowered the bridge which was a bit of a pain as the screws did not turn freely and had to be broken loose very carefully.
Once I was able to get the adjustment screws loose I was able to lower the bridge to the lowest point without fret buzz anywhere on the neck.
Didn't need a truss rod adjustment.
I then applied some cleaner and conditioner to the entire fret board. After that I put the new strings on. The music store didn't have any 10 gauge in stock so I went ahead and put 11 gauge flat wounds. It's a little harder to bend notes past a semi-tone.
Now with the new flat wounds and a slight setup this guitar sounds and plays amazing.
I have Gibson, Gretch , D'angelico, USA Charvel and Epiphone guitars. This monoprice guitar is just as nice as all the other stuff I play.
So for the money this is a big win win!!!

Very Nice Guitar
This guitar arrived a couple of days ago and I was happy to see that it arrived intact. Was easy to unbox; the guitar was shipped in gig bag inside a heavy-duty box. Initial inspection revealed the guitar was a "good" one: no flaws in the finish nor around the binding. The protective film on the pickups and neck rod cover were easy to remove, unlike on many guitars where it is very sticky and difficult to peel off. Although it may have been "set up" by a luthier, it arrived nowhere close to being in tune...which is absolutely no big deal at all.
Obviously, this guitar is an attempt to emulate an Epiphone 335, and it mostly succeeds, except for the black color of the pickup frames and tuners. My only gripes are the lack of a pickguard and that the control wires are visible through the "F" holes in the body.
All-in-all, this is pretty much of a bargain.

Excellent option for a Hollow body
Very satisfied, the guitar neck was fine, and the guitar had a very finished paint job. I liked the overall sound and the best feature is I can upgrade this guitar very easily.... as needed. I would say the only issue was that the tuners were a bit to "loose" in their gearing.
