Be careful with this one - atrocious QC issues.
Writing this review as soon as possible so that others can see. Been interested in this guitar for over a year. Returned it within 10 minutes.
MASSIVE disappointment.
First, the good:
Very Light
Comfortable shape
Sounds good
The bad:
Noticeable scratches in the finish
Nut looked weird, dry and cracked
Fret markers on the side past 12th were "doubled" like someone stamped them on again with leftover paint, about a centimeter off
Tuning peg (rod? idk) was bent on the High E string
Tone knob felt very loose and rattly
Neck was misaligned, the Low E string was way too far from the edge, and the High E string was way too close to it
I don't know if there were any other issues because I asked for a refund and put it back in the box immediately.
Do be careful with these, I was very excited to have one. But I wouldn't buy this without seeing it in person.

Outstanding value: great for practice at home
I own a lot of guitars, including Mayones and Ibanez Prestige. This Hils NX3 is a fantastic investment for practice at home. I prefer headless while sitting down and a standard guitar when standing. The fact you can stand these guitars upright offers a huge advantage over the 'famous' headless guitar brand. You can place them on a wall shelf, for example.
All three of my Hils guitars have benefited from a fret dress and setup. I also added new pickups and now have what feels like a $700-800 guitar.
