DC-580 CH Vintage Series : Decent double-cut guitar
This is very good for the price. Here are some general observations. My opinions are subjective, they're simply what I've found with what I received.
Fretwork seems very good. No sharp fret ends or sprout. The binding is very neatly done
Body appearance- the painter is darker and a littlee duller than the web photos. The finis is slightly transparent. The Body is three piece and because of the transparent finish you can see a centre piece with very different wood grain. It looks ok but might bother some. It would be better imho to make the paint opaque unless the grain/matching is attractive. But again that's just an opinion.
Sounds- neck pickup is warm and pretty fat. Not as good as the Roswells in my other HB guitars, but this guitar is 139 euro!!
Tuners are ok. They work but are not very smooth or precise. They will be replaced eventually.
Comfort. It exhibits pronounced neck dive. I play sitting as I'm a hobby player. but you may not.
Nut:- well seated, will need a little filing as there are plastic burrs left in some of the slots. No biggy.
Overall:- I bought it to mess around with. I don't own any high end guitars, my most expensive is a Harley Benton Fusion T (299 euro) which is markedly better quality than this guitar, but that's ot be expected. I will use it for occasional use in my garden office, some blues noodling, rock power chords and won't worry too much if I damage it.
Good for:- a complete beginner- a great starter guitar. Maybe as a living room guitar. With better tuners and pickups you could probably use it on stage, but I can't comment specifically because I'm not in that world.
Overall a very nice guitar for the money. It costs 139 euro and has a set-in neck.
