The guitar arrived on time and intact. After unpacking, I could not find any external defects. After a short tuning I was positively surprised by the adjustment of the string action and the playability I find, as far as I can judge, good. I moved the potentiometer knobs half a turn to match the knobs on my other instruments. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say it's good value for money.

The instrument arrived safe and sound and well packaged.
Visually, I have not been able to discover the slightest flaw - neither on the varnish nor on the equipment. The guitar is visually almost 100 percent modeled on the Gibson ES 335, the sight is a feast for the eyes, from the weight very pleasant.
After adjusting the bridge and neck - both only a little - I carefully smoothed the frets with a nail smoother - not with a file! Then put on a set of sensible strings and off I went. The humbucker pickups offer a warm and powerful sound, both clean and distorted. Just typical ala Gibson.
If it still scratches a bit on the frets when bending here's my tip: practice strong bending on all strings and positions, this gives then with time the necessary smoothness on the frets.
So for this money no one does anything wrong with the purchase, therefore : Absolutely recommended !

We have ordered the first time at Kirstein and have not been disappointed. The price-performance ratio is top. The guitar was a birthday gift for our granddaughter. She was very happy, is thrilled and that said it all for us as non-experts. We would order from this music store again any time.

The expectation was great, because I first had to return the guitar in the B-ware version because of various defects.
But now the new one should turn out a lot better.
This is the case, but erstimmal only from the optics. The guitar was not to play after tuning the industrial strings. Buzzing and rattling, just unsatisfactory.
Luckily I had a set of Daddario strings at hand and could restring it.
The frets had to be de-notched and smoothed out with a file and a scrubber.
And also the bridge was insufficiently screwed into the body and completely misaligned.
In short 3 hours of work to get to the desired musical experience.
A few deep scratches on the potentiometer I could polish away.
So now everything is ok and I could fix it myself, for a layman only the way to the guitar maker would remain.
It's not pretty, but after a lot of work it has become a cheap, playable instrument. Visually it is an eye-catcher.

I ordered the Rocktile Pro HB100-SB electric guitar sunburst. Today I got it and was amazed at what you get in this price range for a great product. I've held reputable guitars which start at 599€, this instrument purchased here is definitely much more cleanly crafted.
Great performance - great price
With some tweaking and a decent set of other strings, it's a very good product for the price.
High praise

Sound and workmanship are relatively good.
The frets are sharp at the end and need to be sharpened.
Buzzing in the third and fourth frets. Removed by changing the truss rod.
The buzzing in the 12th fret of the e-side can be fixed by increasing the side position
The sound on the amp is nice and bluesy and jazzy even without effects. Especially in the bridge pickup.
So for beginners certainly an inexpensive solution.
Maybe also something for street musicians as an instrument where it's not so bad if it gets a few scratches and has to withstand the weather.
Professionals should refrain from using it.
Conclusion:
The sound is okay.
It was not adjusted.
The frets are sharp.
Not easy to play.
I would have liked the string action lower but unfortunately it doesn't work because of the rattling in the 12th fret.
Would not buy it again.
Better to spend 100 - 200 € more.
