The guitar itself had everything you might expect and was not falling apart; but I wonder about the choice of woods used as the tone is so thin.
I realise Stag are a fairly budget make and I think might use heavier cheap woods to keep the internal structure simpler... hence the lack of tone.

This was a good purchase from Gear4music.
However too often I see they are selling very extensively damaged guitars that are only marginally cheaper than the new price in perfect condition.
A guitar that is damaged should be viewed as in effect second hand so a ball-park price suggests half retail if it is in a full functional condition, but the guitars are often smashed beyond the ability of any normal person to effect an economical repair and still priced closer to a new price.

Good value for money but too far to collect!
I have bought and renovated and converted a few of these, and I loved that satin finished probably spruce front; and mostly I liked the irregular head shape as I convert the usage of the guitar and the head shape means I can do more interesting things when I reduce the number of tuners.
But it is nice as a straight twelve string, just a shame I live too far away to join in the bidding!

ps. I left the does it have a good feel button blank because that depends on the individual set up.
