Just buy it. Quality is perfect. I didn’t even change the strings out. I couldn’t be more impressed for the money. I can’t say enough good things about this guitar.

I’m not sure what got me interested in a 335 style guitar. I think it was a video review of the Sire H7 that originally caught my eye, then sent me down the road of comparing all of the more affordable 335’s out there. I watched a bunch of reviews for the Sire, Ibanez, Firefly’s, and the Grote. I was convinced that anyone of them could be a good purchase, but the Grote was the least expensive, with pretty much all positive reviews.Based on those reviews, what I was expecting was a decently made guitar that was poorly packaged, would need new tuners, immediately need new strings, a fret polish, and set up. All things I’m capable of doing myself, and actually enjoying tinkering with so, for $185, I thought this could be a fun project guitar to mod and work on.What I got was a well packaged guitar, with perfect fit and finish. I looked at every inch of this thing looking for flaws in the binding or clear coat. Once I tuned it up I was surprised that the strings were actually pretty good. The frets were nicely polished with rolled edges, feeling like a high end premium instrument. The tuners aren’t bad, and there’s no need to hurry up and replace them, though I had ordered a replacement set with the guitar, expecting them to need immediate replacement. The set up out of the box was perfect. I checked for buzz at every fret, none. I didn’t measure the neck relief or string height, since they were both to my liking. I Checked the intonation, spot on. Checked the nut the way Phil McNight does, and it was perfect.So now that the build and set up passed, it was time to play. Before I ever plugged it in, once I started playing it, I couldn’t stop. The neck, which some have described as chunky, just felt perfect in my hand. I definitely wouldn’t describe it as chunky myself. A little fuller than a Strat neck, but in no way a negative. For me, the feel of the neck is everything. If it doesn’t feel good, nothing else can compensate for that.Plugged in, it’s just as impressive. I’m the opposite of a tone snob, so I don’t have the vocabulary to describe the nuances of the pick ups, and I don’t have an impressive rig to play through. What I can say is, from clean to dirty and in between, it sounds great to my ears. It was easy to get the iconic jazzy tone, and just as easy to get it to rock.I’m in no way a guitar expert as a player or a tech, but in my 30 years of playing, mostly as a hobbyist with a little gigging experience, I can’t say enough about how impressed I am with this guitar. I’ve played mostly Strat style guitars, Squiers, a MM Sterling, PRS SE Silver Sky, PRS SE 24, to name a few. I even had a cool Chibson Scotty Moore for a while, which gave me my first taste of the shorter scale. This guitar is definitely on par with all of these, and at a fraction of the cost of any of them.Hats off to Grote for being able to offer something this good at such an affordable price point.

I don’t believe it. I cannot wrap my head around how this guitar only costs ~$180. I just don’t get it. I wanted a semi-hollow body 335 style guitar to try and didn’t want to commit by spending a ton of money. I looked all over and tried many different brands… Epiphone, Ibanez, Eastwood, Sire. I read a bunch of positive “great bang for the buck” reviews about the Grote. I had like $130 in Amazon credit so I pulled the trigger. I am absolutely amazed!!! I can’t put it down. Great sustain, tone and feedback from the body. Neck feels just right. Frets are so smooth! For reference I have an Epiphone Pro G-400 SG and a G&L ASAT Tribute and I prefer playing the Grote over both of them. I really love my ASAT and will never part with it but I can’t put the Grote down right now. It seems like it’s truly a Swiss Army Knife guitar. So many different tones. I’m playing through a Blackstar ID Core Stereo 150 and a Stage Right 15 watt tube amp and the guitar sounds great through both. Great fit and finish and terrific sound. I could not be happier with this guitar. One very minor complaint… they put a registered trademark “R” circle next to the Grote logo on the headstock. 1.) The R is very big and diminishes the Grote logo and 2.) It’s completely unnecessary… nobody is going to be counterfeiting a Grote. Haha! I plan on covering up the R with a little black paint. Some people have complained about the tuners… I’ve had no issues with them - they seem smooth and accurate. I do recommend changing the strings immediately out of the box. I put Ernie Ball Slinky 10s on. All good. Highly recommend the Grote 335.

Wow! $190 delivered to the door! This guy is really finished well, very pretty.What I found when I did the set up:-- There were 2 or 3 high frets. I am not going to worry about them now, and maybe never. Still plays well.-- The relief on the neck was fine. (The bow of the neck that is adjusted by the truss rod)-- Action was a little high for me. Easy adjustment.-- Pickup height was good.-- Intonation was way off. Adjusting it was funky. When I restrung it, I found out why. The bridge fit was very sloppy.-- I put new D-Addario .011 strings on and it it really sings now. (SRV used .013 on his strat).-- When I took the old strings off, I noticed how sloppy the bridge fit was. It had a lot of free movement back and forth and IMO this can cause tuning and intonation issues if the bridge moves about when you are playing it. I even had this problem on my old Epiphone Casino and the same with the Guyker $15 replacement roller bridge it put on it. Anyway, the fix is quick and dirty. Get some plumbers Teflon Thread Tape (-- After the set up, I have no problems keep it in tune. While I'm sure that a $90 set of Grover tuners would be better, I'm not going to put them on a $180 guitar. The first key to keeping a guitar in tune is to learn how to properly restring them. First, learn how to properly wrap the string around the tuning post so it won't slip after tightening (watch Youtube). Then after strung and brought up to pitch, stretch the strings by pulling up on them and then retune. Repeat a few times. However, it would be nice if the tuners were a little finer granularity. I think these are 15:1. May a 19:1 or something like that would be an improvement.Anyway, I love the way this plays and sounds. Going to keep it. I do wish they would offer a $20 gig bag option. Finding a inexpensive gig bag that fits was very tough. I found one, but it is too tall for it. It works, but could be better. BTW, I read that the size and shape of these are different enough from the Gibson ES-335 and Epiphone that hard case designed for them will not fit the Grote. Have not verified, but we careful if going that route.

I have lots of guitars in all price ranges. I am a Luthier and sometimes buy things that look good figuring I can fine tune the frets, intonation, etc. When this one arrived I was surprised that it was great right out of the box! I had bought another Grote a couple of years ago and it turned out to be a great player after filing some frets, recutting the nut, changing the strings and proper intonation. I was expecting the same for this one but it was much better than I anticipated. I would buy this again in a heartbeat. The neck is a bit chunky which could be a plus or minus depending on your taste. The pickups sound fine. the fret work is good, the tuners work well. The playability and tone are far better than you might expect in this price range. I suggest giving it a try. I won't be selling mine because it records nicely and looks good when I take it out to play in public. I'd hate to see it get damaged, but if it did, at least I won't have lost a priceless instrument!
