![]() Another one had a spot on the fretboard where the hole for the dot marker had been incorrectly drilled and filled with brown sawdust. And that included a 35th anniversary PRS SE for 1000 Euros. I have bought 5 guitars from Thomann, and returned 4 of them. What it actually means is that anything below 1000-ish Euros will be shipped to you even if the jack is loose, even if the fretboard is scratched, even if the strings are heavily corroded, even if the pickup rings are deformed, even if the nut is cut badly, and so on. Now most buyers will interpret that as saying, “Unless the guitar costs 100 Euros Thomann will not ship it in case it has serious flaws”. If you read the fineprint you’ll see that they say “with inexpensive guitars we let visual imperfections pass as long as they don’t inhibit playability” (roughly translated from the German version). The problem with Thomann is, and always has been, that they imply their “check” of guitars would weed out the bad ones. I’ve had in the past 4 years 5 guitars shipped from Thomann.
