Thank you

Trump was a Bruno brand, same as Conqueror and Royal Artist.

It's funny, i never heard of Bruno and the other brand you mentionned.
From your reply i understand it's pretty much a junk guitar brand and something to avoid.

Hi edwards019,

Bruno & Son have been in the musical instrument distribution business since 1834. Your guitar is a student grade Japanese import. No doubt, these guitars frequently have issues. In my experience the pickups can be noisy and the tuners can be unreliable. On the bright side, the wood is often reasonable quality, the construction is adequate, the action is comfortable and the finishes are fairly decent. I wouldn't classify these instruments as junk although I probably wouldn't take one as my main axe for a world tour. I think there are plenty of people that appreciate the good qualities of these guitars so I wouldn't say they are something to be avoided. sb
