Hello,
I am only an amateur guitarist, however I have played with a few different types over the years. This is a good guitar, it is comfortable and it is what I needed, because it’s quiet and I don’t disturb my flatmates. The ability to use headphones is a massive advantage.
However there is one issue, the above metal frame unfortunately wriggles around, particularly at the top connecting point closer to the fretboard. I have attached it correctly as I was following the manual and the YouTube guide at DonnerMusic. It’s not a big deal, but it is unfortunate.

Exceeds expectations

Great little unit which I'm keen to take on the road with me. Ive tried it with my big amp at home but bought a doner cyclops to travel with. That will be the true test of how effective and easy this guitar is for travel.

As good as I hoped for. Well made, compact, very playable.

Love the hush-x, sounds great (even though I can’t play very well yet) is easy to play & perfect for travel!

Great guitar as a FIFO worker. However!!!! No allen key for locking nut was included and high e string nut wasn't done up properly resulting in the string slipping out of the nut entirely on my first play... Also as an avid death metal player I'd love to see/acquire a 7 string version to avoid having to use a transposer for lower tunings... aside from those two things I can't really fault the guitar in any way. It's been great, feels comfortable enough while sitting and standing and is great to practice on while away from my main guitars for 3 weeks at a time plus is easy to move between work sites as it can be brought in carry on luggage.

Happy with the guitar. I looks great and is playable with a good neck and reasonable action. I am not so impressed with the pickups and will have to do a lot of tweaking to get a reasonable sound out of the guitar. This is not so much as issue as it is a practice instrument and not intended for gigging. It will be perfectly ok for the intended use. Was hoping that I could use it for some small gigs but without some tweaking I don't think this will be possible.

Above my expectations. Very impressed with the quality, and design of this guitar. Played beautifully out of the box, with a tune up. Well finished. Nice neck profile, and smooth frets. Really well thought out design that's going to be ideal for traveling. Decent sounding pickups when played through an amp, or headphones. I think the only negative is that there are no onboard sound effects for headphone use. A bit of reverb/gain would be a great addition.

seems nicely made is very compact with full scale neck, some care will be needed maintaining inotation over string changes and tuning the strings come strait out of the tuners so the length is variable.

I wasn't sure what to expect with the Hush-X. I usually want to sit and play my guitar buys, feel the action, quality etc. before I commit to a purchase. Well, l can honestly say I'm very happy. This instrument is a technical marvel. The build quality is great, quality pickups, the action was spot-on off the bat and stays in tune - that's the sign of a good guitar! The shipping was smooth and the travel case is a quality build. Having 12 guitars, it's surley becoming one of my favourites. This little guy has become a very close friend. Love it!

Given as a Birthday GIft to my Wife. She opened the box a couple of hours ago, and cannot put the guitar down. Really loves the instrument.
Hopefully it will be a Positive History!

I love the guitar and the concept was exactly what I was looking for. My only complaint is that the action is quite high, even after straightening the neck and lowering the action until the set screws started to come out. It took two weeks to get a response from customer service and it is as if they didn't even read my concern. Per the response, though, it would seem that the action on my guitar is higher than the spec as I don't get to the factory setting even after lowering the action. I am a beginner guitar player, but I haven't come across why anyone would want the action as high as it is on my guitar at its lowest possible setting.

This is my first electric guitar, and it's awesome! The packaging is really secure, and the attention to detail is excellent. The sunset-color is indeed stunning!

I already have a sunset-colored HUSH-I, and when I saw that Donner released the HUSH-X, I didn't hesitate to buy it. All my entry-level instruments are from Donner, and I really love their products. The quality and appearance are both excellent!

Amazing guitar! The action was a little high for my liking but nothing a quick setup couldn't fix. Such a neat concept and super portable. The pickups sound great, the finish is beautiful, the frets are perfect and rounded, the tuners are super accurate and easy to use, and the headphone option is handy for late night jams. Coolest guitar I've ever purchased and it's ruined all other guitars for me. Please make a dual humbucker version!!!

I've been playing guitar for many years and always have traveled with a portable guitar to remain current with the weekly lessons that I produce as a professor of music for a local college. The Donner HUSH-X guitar is ergonomically shaped to fit quite well for my playing style as it is suspended from my shoulders at a distance similar to the full-scale instruments that I play in Jazz Bands and Orchestras. Surprisingly, the instrument offers a good sound and possesses a sufficient weight to deliver a pretty nice tone. I take the Donner HUSH-X guitar to my rehearsals which produces a solid and projecting sound amongst the other instruments. The sound truly outweighs it's looks as a guitar which appears to be on a crash diet.

Well.No doubt the price is decent. But the quality of the guitar is not as good as shown.
Who is beginning to learn the guitar? Think about purchasing the right-side guitar.

I purchased the HUSH-X because I wanted an electric travel guitar for a trip to China, I wasn't sure how it would play for this price point but I am extremely happy with how well it plays, setup was good put of the box and all of the included extras including straps, battery, tuner and tools are a welcome surprise.
The carry bag is good also and has enough space for me to pack my Boss Waza headphones and chargers etc.
This is a very good guitar for the money and will make travelling very plesent. I fully recommend the HUSH-X if you need a travel guitar or even a light practise guitar.

I love this guitar. The sound quality is amazing and I am looking forward to taking it on an International trip in January. It's great to play while at home and to practice late at night without disturbing others. Everything you need comes with the package. A beautiful are and battery and comfortable earbud headphones. Perfect for travel. At home I use it with a small practice amp or a et of studio quality headphones which really show off the tone of the guitar. It is beautiful designed with some noice improvements over the Hush-1 which I also play.

"Awesome Guitar, actually it is my first guitar EVER!
I am using it with the rocksmith game to learn how to play. I am a minimalist so when I first saw this, i thought the design was unique and manageable for my lifestyle.
Very well made with great materials.
I recommend this guitar."
