Following review text is verbal representation of numerical rating information:

It feels that Laguna could have done better with LE222 HSS, but still, this is a useful musical instrument. You should really give LE222 HSS a chance if you feel that this is a right instrument for you in this moment in time.

Laguna could throw in a bit more features into LE222 HSS but this guitar is definitely a usable musical instrument. Whether it's the price cut, or Laguna felt that simplicity is a good way to go, LE222 HSS is built with a limited set of features, so one needs see if it fits the need. Not the best equipped instrument, but LE222 HSS will do well for some musicians.

You can plug this baby into a toaster and, God knows, maybe it would sound as great as it does with any other amp. Seriously, Laguna made a LE222 HSS, a terrific sounding instrument that deserves all the praise it can get. There is simply no need to change any stock-provided parts built into this axe, as it sounds professional all the way. Laguna's LE222 HSS is a flawlessly sounding instrument.

It seems that Laguna didn't put in too much effort into producing a guitar like LE222 HSS. Finish feels a bit cheap if you look closely, and the instrument did not look very promising while held and played. As with any other guitar, you have to take some time to get used to it, and it may seem that that period of getting yourself comfortable with new instrument is a bit longer with LE222 HSS.

Some might say that Laguna didn't go all the way in providing a reliable and durable instrument, but LE222 HSS isn't that bad. It will serve you well most of times, though you should be wary and have backups in situations where you feel LE222 HSS might let you down, such as gigs and studio sessions.
