About this item
Highlights
- Solid Ash Body With Maple Neck: Unlike other guitar models using inexpensive woods, Indio Retro DLX Plus guitars feature bodies made of solid ash, which is a superior material for guitar building due to its high resonance and desirable tonal qualities. Ash is considered to be extremely balanced, creating bright but sweet tones with a slightly scooped midrange. Ash is also known for being the material used in some of the most iconic American electric guitars of all time.
- Professionally Set Up In California by Our Master Luthier: In addition to better materials and specs, what really separates Indio Retro DLX Plus guitars from others is the exceptional playability out of the box. Every Indio DLX Plus guitar is domestically QC'd and setup by our Master Luthier in Southern California. This ensures perfect playability out of the box, providing a playing experience that is superior to any guitar costing several times the price.
- Wilkinson Bridge and Pickups: In addition to premium woods and materials, Indio Retro DLX Plus guitars feature upgraded Wilkinson bridges and pickups. Known for their exceptional value, Wilkinson components are reliable and perform as well as other high end parts costing several times the price. Premium Wilkinson bridges will help with tone and keeping the guitar in tune, while the Wilkinson pickups provide greater depth, articulation, and balance than typical stock pickups.
- Gig Bag Included: All Indio DLX Plus guitars include a 20mm padded gig bag to protect your instrument against dings and scratches as you travel.
- Using premium woods and top‑tier components, delivers both unrivaled value and performance.

Out of the box, just change the strings, minor setup on low E string saddle height. No sharp frets, no scratchy pots and tuners hold pitch.
Nice Guiitar but

I purchased the blonde Retro DLX plus a couple of months ago when it was on sale for $140. I wanted a maple neck / maple fret board and was willing to not get the string through body. Most people say this but I could not believe how great this guitar felt right out of the box. I had gotten a black Indio Boardwalk guitar about a month earlier that also exceeded my expectations but this Retro was at anther level. The maple neck / fretboard was better than expected. It plays great, sounds great and stays in tune pretty well. When it went on sale again for $130 I bought another one as a Christmas present. The second one was also perfect out of the box. The SoCal luthier has been on point on the guitars I have received from Monoprice. I have also purchased a couple of the stage right 5 watt tube amps that I love, the 1x12 cabinet, a bunch of cables and all the pedals. I can not say enough about how impressed I am with the quality of all products I have received.
Great guitar, but HEAVY!

Very heavy guitar at 10 pounds! Didn't realize ash was so dense! Arrived with some cosmetic issues but nothing to cry about for the price. But it plays well after a bit of a set up, sounds fantastic and has sustain for days! Neck is a fuller profile but fits my hand nicely. I gave this 4 stars really only because of the weight factor. At nearly 2 pounds heavier than my Les Paul I wouldn't want to gig with it!

I like the guitar. It sounds good, plays well out of the box, and looks as expected (as the pictures showed). It arrived on time - actually I think it may have come a day early. I have only 1 complaint of the guitar: the nut wasn?t installed true in the slot. It?s shifted over to the 1st string side of the fretboard slightly leaving a void in the slot on the low E string side of the fretboard. I feel like the strings are therefore shifted slightly to the 1st string side. If I weren?t expecting to change the plastic nut for one of bone I would probably contact customer service to request correction. Otherwise I enjoy playing it.
Great guitar for the price.

I purchased this guitar for my grandson. It's an excellent guitar for the price. Outside of being somewhat on the heavy side he loves it. I actually ended up also buying the cherry burst version for myself. I love it.

Was damaged when received. Gave me some money off and in my opinion should have been more. Nice guitar though and quality ash body. It?s a heavy slab but solid tone.

I am very pleasantly surprised at how good this guitar is. It arrived set up very well, with great action and near perfect intonation, (as perfect as you can get with the three-barrel bridge). I think that the three- barrel brass bridge gives the guitar an authentic vintage look but also helps recreate that classic tele tone. The Wilkinson pickups sound great, and the tone and volume pots respond very well and operate smoothly. I must say that I like this guitar better than the two Mexican Tele's that I once owned and, is close to rivaling my "71 American tele! The neck is not as good as the ones on those guitars but, the frets are well dressed, with no sharp edges the only thing negative, is that the top three frets are not playable, which is not an issue for me since I don't play that high on the neck. Maybe a tweak of the truss rod would fix that. In all, an amazing guitar for the (ridiculously low) price. I look forward to trying some other Indio guitars.
Great Guitar

I just received mine last night and I have to say I am pleased with what I received. I bought the blonde one. The fret ends are very smooth, there really wasn't any imperfections with the body's finish. I like the grain on the neck and headstock, the fretboard looks very nice. One complaint, no big deal though, is the back of the neck is a tad bit rough. But it is not a big deal because I'm planning to sand in boiled linseed oil to make it a smooth satin finish. Now, I do not know if this is stock with all of these DLX guitars, but mine came with a strap and a cable for the amp. Granted they are low end, but they will work, I don't need anything fancy right at this moment. So that was a plus.
Heavy guitar, chunkier neck than Tele, but overall good value.

Good sound, nicely finished. HEAVY! Set up pretty well out of the box. Neck is chunky, much thicker than my Fender Tele. Overall, good value for the money. But did I mention it's heavy?
