So, after FedEx sucked, all is good. The guitar arrived a day later than expected in perfect condition, box standing upside down weight on the headstock. Duh.
The deal: The case pouch zipper is defective but doesn't matter, I'm using it for a dust cover anyway. Electronics are decent for the money. Sounds really nice and it will sound better with the new strings, stock ones only good for testing, setup etc. The tuners are just ok. May replace them may not. The frets are very sharp on the ends and even feel sharp as ya slide up or down on the fingerboard. I'll fix that. The tremolo seemed to work well for the type and returned to tuned position over and over. Was a little hard to push but I'll adjust that If I keep the bridge. I don't like the trem arm...thread in, sloppy fit, won't go far enough around to firmly stay where I want it. Threads feel cheesy and like I said, it's a sloppy fit. There is an awesome Floyd Rose Bridge trem available but it's 230 to 270 bucks. If it sounds super good after I set it up, I will consider the F R. After all, personalization is my goal. Being a cheap guy is not. All my guitars are customized by me. Won't find any stock Gs in my collection. All that said I think it's a great little guitar that will be awesome when set up frets cleaned up, and intonated.
I would recommend it to anyone that can do simple common-sense setups.
I also think Monoprice is a class act!
FedEx, not so much!

I am pleasantly surprised that this low,low priced guitar is really nice. I expected that I would need to dress the frets, do some intonation and possibly look over some imperfections in the finish. I'm happy to say that all I needed to do was tune it.
I bought this offset guitar while it was on sale for a little more than $100 and my 5 star rating is for a guitar of this price range. BUY IT !!!

Appearance wise, it was fine. Guitar had no setup at all. Intonation is out and lots of feet buzz. I suspect I'll need. To spend another hundred dollars at least to get it set-up to playable condition. Compared to a. Fender Squire it's a bit lacking. Well make a interesting Arts project

I mean for a little over $100 you can't beat this guitar. Playable out of the box. Feels good, looks good, plays good. Go for it.

I've had my eye out for a good , low cost P90 style guitar. At 224.99 canadian I thought it will adequate at best. Well well was I surprised. This thing is a dream to play. I have been playing for decades and at least 100 guitars have passed through my ownership over the years. This one stands out as a WTF, this is amazing for the price. I have never played a genuine Fender jazzmaster, but will be on my next opportunity to feel the comparison and not pay 4 to 8/9 times the price of this guitar. I think Monoprice has smitten me

This is an awesome guitar. Very well made. The pickups are really nice as well.

I bought this guitar because it looks like my first electric, a Fender Mustang which I got in 1967. I didn't expect it to play well or sound good because of the low price, but it is just as good (but with a different "voice") as my American Professional Stratocaster at $1600.00 and my Carvin DC 137 at $700.00. The "soap bar" pickups produce a very clean sound (pun intended) with no hum or buzz as you might expect from an inexpensve electric. The bridge pickup sounds a lot like a Telecaster. The neck pickup has its own unique "fat" sound, but not quite as fat as a Stratocaster. I love this guitar! You need to buy this guitar before Monoprice realizes what they have and raises the price!

A very solid guitar for the price. The neck had a few minor imperfections on the fretboard, but the frets themselves were well cut and rounded. No buzzing on the fretboard as well. The P90 "soapbar" pick ups sound amazing. Great all around purchase and would recommend.

This is my 3rd Indio guitar and may be my favorite.
Nice guitar for the price. It came with the action set pretty well, the intonation was way off but that's an easy fix.

Sold my '62 Original Jazzmaster years ago. It was great playing. Been wanting a Blues guitar for a long time and heard of this guitar. I purchased a new G. Les Paul Custom in March '23 and sent it back. Didn't feel or play like $ 2500.00.
This Indio Offset OS30 DLX Guitar, Ivory. Is Everything I could ever want in a guitar. It rocks and it's a blues guitar. Extremely well Crafted. Feel is like it wants to be next to you. These pick ups give sounds you don't hear these days. It's growls when you crank it up and beautiful clear when you want clean.
The neck is Unbelievable > GREAT-Fantastic ! Smooth slick and fast. I play ALL 22 frets and they are all awesome.
It comes set-up and actually " in tune " after taking it out of the beautiful case it was in. I do all my own 'tweeking' . As we-all-do.
I will Honestly tell you-- If I was blind folded and handed this guitar to play, then asked what I'd give for it. I AM TELLING YOU.. $ 1000.00
The $ 2500.00 Les Paul I sent back doesn't even come close to playability, feel and just plain 'lacking'.
I use the Trem/whammy and this stays IN-Tune.
I said 1k because = it's ivory white. Not a quilted maple top , just regular tuners but high quality ones.
OK ---> here are the Cons. mono directional trem/whammy. meaning you cannot pull up. I would like to have Locking tuners BUT the way these factory's are working...I may not need 'em.
THAT'S IT !! If I could ? I still would not change a Single thing. This neck is a dream. The sound beats a humbucker and single coil any day. This guitar becomes Alive in your hands. Remember Soapbar pick ups and Craftsmanship. It's not too heavy and not too light. I am considered a professional player by many. I just like playing and have since I was 8.
I know this may sound wierd.. But , of all guitars I have played and own- ( high quality nice ones ) This is in my top 3 for Overall playability and personality.
I'm just enjoyin playing music here in Western ILLINOIS , Chris G. p.s. > it's better than my ole '62 ever was.
