Fat Tone and Lightweight!
The L models from Rocktile are perfect for all guitarists who want a really fat sound right from the start. Since almost all beginner guitars tend to lean towards Stratocaster style and are usually equipped with the somewhat thinner-sounding single-coil pickups, the L-100 with its two humbuckers is a welcome alternative.
Thanks to the flat body - single cut models are usually arched - and the slim neck, the L-100 is also suitable for absolute beginners and is relatively light at 3.5 kg. The workmanship is fully up to standard and sound-wise the L-100 leaves nothing to be desired.
If you’re looking for a really affordable electric guitar with serious tone and great looks but don’t want discount-store quality, then the Rocktile L-100 is exactly your thing!

Variant Rocktile L-100 BL Electric Guitar Black
This rating has been translated automatically. Original language
Strings need to be replaced as we do with all lower priced instruments.
The fingerboard has a few tiny cracks, but they don't bother. Should be oiled.
Great sound without amplifier.
Pickups are ok, but pinch harmonics are not possible with them (replaced them with Wilkinson pickups).
The neck is not, as mentioned in the description, slim, but rather corresponds to the model "half baseball bat" of an original Les Paul Standard. I don't mind it. It is not lacquered and feels very comfortable.
The guitar is very top heavy, so you should use a good leather strap to get that under control. But that is often the case even with very expensive instruments.
The tuners run cleanly, are tuning stable, pots and switches are impeccable (I have experienced worse in much higher price ranges), varnish impeccable. Meanwhile, I play the guitar much more often than on trips.
Conclusion: With little rework you get an instrument with unbeatable price-performance ratio and high fun factor. If you invest another 40 € for a few mid-range pickups, the guitar also sounds great on the amp. Due to the thick neck, the guitar is in my opinion only conditionally suitable for people with short fingers or small hands.
Questions about product
Question by Jörg on 10.07.2022
In a review from 2014, it was mentioned that the neck shape 'is more like the model" half baseball bat" of an original Les Paul Standard'.
Since I am looking for a guitar with a strong neck profile, I would like to know what the current neck shape is for this model.
Many greetings
Jörg
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
It should be a neck profile in standard C to D.
Question by RainerHuber on 28.12.2017
Hello!
A silly question: Is there any kind of instruction manual from which the assignment of the knobs and the toggle switch can be seen? I am unfortunately the absolute beginner with electric guitars.
Thanks
RH
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
The toggle switch is used to switch the pickups. When the switch is set to the upper position, only the neck pickup (Neck PU) is active. In the middle position both pickups are active and in the lower position only the bridge pickup (Bridge PU). The two pots (potentiometers) are used for tone control. The pot to the left of the switch controls the volume of the guitar (volume pot), the one to the right controls the treble part of the guitar signal (tone pot). The position of the switches and knobs is a matter of individual taste.
