Maverick Review: F1

Maverick Electric Guitars



History:

Purchase: I bought this from Denamrk Street in London for £500 with a bag and a set of strings.

What I Like About This Maverick F1: Firstly this guitar looks great, it has rollers instead of tone and volume 'knobs' (unique to maverick-and a great idea). Its light weighted and feels powerful in your hands. It comes with a liscensed floyd rose tremalo system. The guitar never goes out of tune, well not in my experience. It is also suited to many different styles of music-it can play both metal with an awesome crunch and also lighter rock, Satriani style. Also a very durable guitar. It came with a very low action as well so you can easily play fast. The neck too is amazing, very thin and fits your hand well, very nice!

What I Do NOT Like About The Maverick F1: There is only one minor complaint that I have about this guitar-and that is the position of the pickup selector switch. Occasionally when playing you might knock the selector and change which pickups are being used. its only a minor problem, but when you are playing live in gigs then the sounds difference will be noticed.

Maverick F1 Quality Rating: As mentioned above, the guitar is very durable, its put together well and I have had no problems with it since buying.



Review Summary: Basically this guitar is awesome, its far better than any guitar around its price range. Easily better than a high end Ibanez in my opinion or a middle range ESP. But having said that it depends what you are after. The great thing about this guitar is that it will suit anyones playing style and I recomend this to anyone!

Maverick F3 - if you like a guitar to look good, play well, and sound awsome then this is worth a go, i cannot get my feelings across how good this guitar actually is. if you have around £600 to spend on a guitar i think you would find it hard to find a better...

Maverick F3 - If you're looking for a quality rock guitar without paying over-the-top prices (but without losing great looks) then the F3 is perfect. Maverick guitars, especially anything above the F1 range, should definitely be priced higher than they are - and s...
