Grail AG-D110-SB my [buyer/user] review

hello musikshack, first off thanks for delivering the instrument safe n' sound and within promised time period.kudos. now for the guitar, i'll give 4 points for the make n' finish. for the materials used 3.5. reason being the. nut is of very cheap plastic, also the string pegs/pins are cheap plastic .the machine heads are die cast as per the description but i have seen and used diecast tuning pegs and this doesnt really seem diecast to me and also becoz diecast machineheads holds tunings well and for long but this doesnt. may be its a cheap diecast,idont know,not sure. fingerboard is rosewood but a cheap one coz its a very budget guitar. but for the sound i'll give 4.5 for this price. the sound is more towards vintage sound ,li'll deep, not like the yamaha f310 which is more contemporary. more soft sounding.. neck profile is good. could have been better i.e more slim. shouldn't be a problem for beginners coz its a beginner guitar. im confused with one thing i.e the truss rod. its given 2 way adjustible .so i thought its a dual channel trussrod .but its a single truss rod. there is only one major complaint which is the string action. the action is high .i know all guitars comes with a high action in stock form.but since there is no grail brand in my town im confused as to whether should i adjust the truss rod myself to lower the action or take it to a luthier coz if something happens to the neck while adjusting the action who will be responsible and how will the warranty cover coz without adjusting the action the guitars are almost unplayable. in the past i have bought guitars from the stores itself so i just tell them to adjust the action before buying.since this is the 1st time i bought online i was hoping the guitar to come with an adjusted and lowered action.but it didnt. so im in a bit of dilema. so i request u guys to adjust and lower the action before sjipping for online customers only for the warranty. issues. everything else is fine.guitar sounds good for this price point.also free shipping which is the part i really really appreciate u guys and came with all the free goodies.good professionalism shown.and my sincere thanks to prabodh ji for letting me know that the guitar i chose earlier had issues and not selling a bad product.so thanks for that prabodh ji.it was really nice talking to u and till now the guitar is fine .any problem occurs i'll let u know.chao
