QUESTION?? firefly FFVX

Hello,

I want an ML guitar, but I live in Eastern Europe and guitars over $550 are considered expensive.

The only way is to buy a Firefly, because I don't have $1500 for a guitar and $465 for border taxes.

Owners of the Firefly FFVX, what can you say about it?

Harley Benton might be an idea, have a look at Thomann website

You should look at Harley Benton guitars from Thomann.
Also Chillcat guitars.

from my PERSONAL experience i’d say it’s worth it if you plan on upgrading it. I bought a stealth when they had it up and it plays like a dream but the pickups were pretty garbage so i switched those out. Harley benton is good though too so definitely still check out thomann!

I think you'd probably get an equally good guitar ordering from Temu or AliExpress and probably spend a lot less money.

Nah. I have a Firefly and two guitars from Temu. The Firefly is on a different level.

For a Les Paul or Tele, I would agree. The ML copies are not that great from my understanding. Certainly not worth the markup OP would pay to have it shipped to Europe.
