The Westcreek Racer is hands down the best guitar you can get for this price!!!
What's there not to like about this guitar? Absolutely nothing. Mahagony body, Bone Nut, Finished fret ends. Just those 3 things you will rarely find on a guitar in this price range. Couple those things with an incredibly tasteful cool shape, a great finish, an overall killer vibe and you have the quintessential best bang for your buck. It showed up in 2 days, boxed very well. When I opened it, the action was nice and low, no fret buzz of any kind and the intonation was spot on. It plays, sounds and looks awesome. I Highly, Highly suggest you get one!!! I will be rocking out on this thing for years to come. Way to go Westcreek, for making an incredibly affordable guitar with such quality!!!!! Thank you.

Black Racer GT is an AWESOME Axe!
I'm blown away by how nice the black GT Racer is. Beautiful design and attention to craftmanship from WestCreek. I used to have a higher-end Epiphone SG that I loved playing -- similar models go for about $750 these days -- and I did not expect a $220 guitar from China to be its equal. But it is! I'd just as soon play this Racer as a Gibson SG that costs ten times as much; I suspect the only appreciable difference would be the cost of the pickups. My Racer arrived in flawless condition right out of the box. I expected to spend a lot of time doing my own set-up, so I was amazed at how well everything was constructed and set up already. I prefer the lowest possible action, and the Racer was set super low. So low that it had a little buzz in only the first fret, which I easily eliminated with about a quarter turn of both screws that raise the saddle level. Intonation needed a slight adjustment. Both before and after my action adjustment, the notes at the 12th fret went a few cents flat on the low E, A, and D string. I easily fixed this with several turns of the individual saddle screws on those three stings, and didn't need to do a thing to the other three strings. I only mention these details to illustrate how minor they are -- they took a very leisurely twenty-five minutes to get sorted -- and in what great shape this guitar arrived at my door. The neck needed no adjustment, the frets feel perfectly smooth and rounded along both sides of the neck, the electronics have zero problems, the finish is uniformly gorgeous, and I can't find a single detail to be unhappy with. If you prefer an ultra-light electric, you might find the Racer a bit on the heavy side. Like an SG, it has a mahogany body, and it has some weight to it. I am guessing the maple neck is a set neck (glued into place), because it certainly isn't a bolt-on. The result is a guitar that feels like a solid slab, and you can feel the neck and body resonate as one when plucking the open strings. The weight, when standing to play, is not as well-balanced as my old Ibanez Iceman (another amazing guitar in the $750 range that the Racer would hold its own against), but better balanced than my old ESP Baritone Viper (which was awesome but a bit of a beast). Overall, the weight and balance are comparable to an actual SG, and quite comfortable for me. I find that when I'm sitting to play, a little boost under my right foot supports the guitar and gets everything in the most comfortable position. The fretboard feels very close to flat, which I prefer and am happy about, but you might consider this fact if you prefer a more Strat-style neck with a noticeably curved radius. The curve and shape of the back of the neck feels super comfortable in my hand, as does the width. My hands might be on the smallish side for guitarists -- I can't do huge stretches like Van Halen, Hendrix, and Holdsworth -- and I'm an unremarkably average 5-feet-9-inches build. So, maybe someone bigger or smaller than me might have different feedback on the neck shape and the overall weight. It's important to find a guitar that fits you personally. If WestCreek ever wants to do their version of an Iceman body style with this quality of craftmanship, I'll be one of the first to buy it. For now, I am having a blast re-learning "Midnight" by Joe Satriani on this axe. She's beautiful.

Great price. Fit and Finish could be better.
For the price, this guitar is very nice. The fit and finish, however, is not great. The binding on the bass side of the neck at the first few frets was very rough — though the rest of the binding was smooth. This could have been fixed in a couple of minutes, but for some reason was not. The finish on the back of the guitar near the strap button and on the horns was also not fully buffed out for some reason. Finally, the frets were not leveled as well as they should have been, leading to random buzzing notes throughout the fingerboard. Although there are issues, they can be addressed. That said, the guitar is very resonant and sounds quite good unplugged. Plugged in, the pickups are not bad (especially considering the price). As a beginner's guitar they will certainly get the job done. The switch and pots are smooth. The tuners get the job done, though they do feel a little loose when tuning the guitar. The bridge does its job, and the intonation was good and the action was low. The neck is a medium C profile (0.85" @ the 1st fret, 0.91" @ the 12th fret) at least on the guitar that I received. It is not too thin. It fills the hand comfortably. For the price, it is quite nice. It even compares favorably with some higher priced instruments. It would be nice to see an option to bundle the guitar with a gig bag or case.

La compré por el aspecto, esa variación de la SG con ese diseño de las rayas etc, me pareció chulisimo. esperaba cualquier cosa... una guitarra para tener en casa, quizá colgada de una pared y que serviría más de adorno que de instrumento. Estaba equivocado. No hay nada negativo que decir, los acabados son perfectos, mención especial a los detalles 'artísticos' los marcadores de los trastes, el logo y el simbolo de la pala, se nota que han prestado atención a la apariencia de la guitarra, parte del encanto de las guitarras es que sean bonitas, si lo es o no, ya depende del gusto de cada cual, pero los de westcreek se han esmerado en conseguir que lo sea. los trastes están muy bien pulidos, mejor que marcas conocidas, el setup de fabrica muy bien ajustado, quizá la acción un poco baja para mi gusto, pero aún teniendo como digo las cuerdas muy pegadas al mastil, no se produce ningún trasteo en ningún traste haciendo bendings. Mantiene la afinación perfectamente, los clavijeros son de marca blanca, pero cumplen sin problema. las pastillas no se quien las fabrica, pero suenan de fábula, bien equilibradas las posiciones desde el mastil al puente, las 3 posiciones son aprovechables y suenan bien tanto en limpio como con overdrive o distorsion, no son las pastillas con una salida brutal como unas seymour duncan, pero tienen un sonido cálido para rock muy bueno. Pensaba que las tendría que cambiar, pero no creo que lo haga. He tenido y tengo muchas guitarras, Gipson, Fender, Ibanez, Jackson, Washburn, Gretsch, Framus, Epiphones y también alguna guitarra china Stagg de poca calidad, se lo que es una buena o mala guitarra, y para mi la Westcreek Racer es una guitarra fantástica, por sonido, acabados, comodidad del mastil, aspecto y como no, el precio. update: unos dias después de recibirla, al tocar con la guitarra desenchufada escuché un cerdeo (roce de la cuerda con el metal divisor del traste) en la segunda cuerda, quinto traste, lo que indicaba que el divisor del sexto traste podía estar ligeramente más alto a la altura de esta cuerda. efectivamente, con un nivel metálico confirmé que así era, y con un martillo de punta de goma y unos cuantos martillazos al divisor, ya está solucionado el problema, no más cerdeo.

Mon fils de 11 ans est absolument ravis, le look est top, le soin de la finition étonnant pour le prix. Un joueur plus aguerri peu largement s’amuser avec aussi.

Ich habe diese Gitarre schon einige Zeit beobachtet, war mir aber nicht schlüssig sie wirklich zu kaufen da eigentlich genug Gitarren bei mir vorhanden sind. Zudem ist bei so günstig angebotenen Gitarren eines wenig bekannten Herstellers davon auszugehen das da noch Arbeit und Zeit anfällt um sie gut spielen zu können. Allerdings gefällt das Styling sehr gut. Ausschlaggebend war dann noch eine weitere Preissenkung an Prime Day auf nur noch 183 Euronen. Ich habe mich für die Schwarzmetallik Version entschieden. Die Racer kam sehr gut verpackt bei mir an. Der optische Eindruck hat mich in der Hand haltend sehr positiv gestimmt. Da gibt es nichts zu mäkeln. Wirklich top. Lack, Binding, und Shape sind sehr ordentlich ausgeführt. Die Hardware PU"S und Elektronik funktionieren ohne Fehler. Da wackelt nichts oder ist schief angebracht. Die Bundierung ist sauber poliert inclusive der gut gerundeten Ecken. Die PU"s sind erstaunlich gut und könnten sogar da 4adrig ausgelegt gesplittet werden was ich auch mit Austauschen gegen 2 Pushpull Potie 's noch machen werde. Gleichwohl muss ich sagen das die Gitarre nur dann was für Leute ist die Erfahrung mit richtigen Eintellen bzgl Hals und Intonation haben. Denn wie zu erwarten ist dies natürlich bei dem Preis nicht vorher erfolgt. Oder man hat jemanden der es übernimmt. Der Sattel könnte zur Optimierung was tiefer nachgefeilt werden. Bei der Bundierung ist auch das ein oder andere Schnarren vorhanden, zwar nicht dramatisch aber doch vorhanden. Es kommt vor das bei Klimaänderungen ( auf Grund der Transport Bedingungen aus Asien) einzelne Bundstäbchen sich aus dem Griffbrett etwas anheben wie es bei meiner wohl der Fall war. Mit dosierten leichten Schlägen (Kunststoff Hammer und Holzstück) konnte ich dies kompensieren womit auch eine gute Saitenlage ermöglicht wurde. Die Tuner sollten auf jeden Fall getauscht werden da zu viel Spiel beim Stimmen. Wer dies umschifft hat erhält ein wirklich gutes Instrument mit toller Optik, denn die Grundfeatchers sind wirklich gut. Wer für dieses interessante Styling noch für ein evntl Abrichten der Bünde und gescheite Tuner investiert ( vielleicht ca.180Euro ) wäre dann bei ca. 360 Euronen. Dafür gibt es oft auch bei bekannten Marken nur Teile die nach bearbeitet werden müssen. Ich für mein Teil werde die Racer noch mit besserer Hardware aus meinem Fundus aufrüsten und sie behalten. Das ist ein optimales Pimp Projekt. Und klingen und spielen tut sie jetzt schon gut 😊👍👋
