Riptide Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 A friend of mine asked me to set-up his guitar for him, I gladly said I would. However when I got it from him I realized it was a Laguna guitar and I have no idea how they are suppose to be set-up. Any advice? What I'm thinking right now is just to do a normal set up and make sure it sounds good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Laguna is GCs house brand electric....they're supposed to be pretty good guitars & they advertize as being a "green" company with "one guitar one tree"(planting) philosophy.

Bender 4 Life Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Thanks. It was a 24.75 and I got it all set-up :) that's really interesting, from the design of most of their guitars I had just assumed they would be 25.5 instead...... I "test drove" one or 2 of them at various times and was very impressed with the performance at their price point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I "test drove" one or 2 of them at various times and was very impressed with the performance at their price point. I was surprised as well, I expected it to be 25.5 and then I started playing it and was like "This feels more like a Gibson!" and sure enough it's 24.75 The owner told me afterwords that he got it on purpose to be more of a strat sound with more of a Gibson feel. I think the nut was wider than a strat as well. And it is very true that they play well for there price... you can get some good sounds out of them too!
