Hi folks,
Just thought I'd post an impression of a Weiss copy I just received just in case anyone is interested.
I have/had a cheap old Chinese made Weiss copy that finally self-destructed.
It seems that if you play a lot of wrong notes they disassemble themselves.
I needed a replacement but did not want to spend an huge amount of money on one.
I'm not that good at it and at my age a popsicle sitting in the sun could outlast me.
I'd been looking at Twisted Wood's website for some time now so I decided to order one of theirs.
I ordered the Drifter. The absolutely least expensive one they make.
5 days later it arrived at my door.
First; it was the best packing job I have ever seen.
A nuclear explosion would have had no affect.
It also has a nice serviceable gig bag with it.
This is a well made little guitar.
IT IS NOT FANCY. Just a well made good looking base model. I really like it.
It sounds great acoustically or plugged in and has nice sustain especially for a laminate model.
They come with or without a pickup.
I am extremely happy with this guitar.
Adam, whom I dealt with on the phone at Twisted Wood was very helpful and friendly.
If anyone is interested in a good reasonably price Weiss copy a look at Twisted Wood might be interesting for you.
I'm sure glad I found them.
They also have some beautiful higher end models for those who can actually play one of these things....and can afford them.
Everyone have a good day..............

Congrats on the New Weissenstyle Guitar! Sounds very interesting.
How about a link to the website?
Do you have a photo of your new weiss for us?
Thanks.

Thanks Tom.
With the exchange rate w/Canada the price was very reasonable.
Once again, not fancy but I am enjoying this little guy very much.
Some of the woods used in the other models are gorgeous!
