Three pickups and a trem? This is more of a Strat masquerading as a Tele shaped guitar. It looks ok but to be honest I would have to actually play one to have an opinion. 🤔

Hey mate . Ditto regarding the radar , and funds available for 'needs and wants' . I'd really like to be able to play , and maybe purchase one of those Vola's . Methinks I should just enjoy the instruments I have already accrued , whilst viewing the tube after nightshift . Cheers from Christiano the Coal Sampler . East Coast Australian . Cheers mate 👍

I saw the KJM on the site, Kaspar is a brutal guitarist also. Thanks for the video!

I bought this guitar a year ago (in black and under 1000€) and I agree with the comments on the very great neck... except the frets. Very bad polished and quite sharp. I removed one spring on the tremolo to have a floating one and it's hard to keep it on tune thereby. Sounds are really very good. But I was expecting more from a "Japan made guitar" and its reputation. A visit to a luthier will be necessary to have the "perfect" instrument I want. And... sorry for my poor english...

i’ve got 6 guitars..all sub 1k€…..and i have been looking for_the one _ to ..sort of close it. This Volta is probably the closest i’ve got so far.. i want a Vintage sound & feel, with an edgy but classy design. this thing is a beauty. That neck…damn! and thicker/fatter than a slim C, great ! The HSH setup, the floating bridge, and the pickUps themselves…though.. just didn’t work, for me. At least, i need a tele fixed bridge with its classic plate & slanted Pup (even if it is a stacked pseudo SC _ i need that twang!) i would definitely BUY this guitar, just like this, but with a tele bridge & PUp. VOLA…. if you’re listening .. ;) PS: Kudos on the guitar, though.. It’s very close to perfect.

The Vasti V3 CC is more or less what you're after, more of a Tele look and same Classic C neck shape, but it does come with a Vola Tele-sized rails humbucker pickup in the bridge. And at under $1000, it's much more competitive with, for instance, the Fender JV and Ibanez Prestige stuff than this is imo.
