SC-450Plus LD Vintage Series : HB SC-450 Plus LD

After years of my secondhand Chinacaster off the bay as my first guitar I decided to look at changing. Loads of reviews of this guitar on the tube and all seemed good. You get the mix of low cost Chinese supply chain but with added German QA.

Arrived in 5 days, 1 day Germany to UK, 1 day Essex to Yorkshire then 3 days to get from Yorkshire to Derbyshire!

Well packed but my new amp was in the box too, the guitar box was slightly bent but thankfully all OK inside. Plays well out of the box after a tune, action a little high but that's my preference, neck relief OK. Frets may get a polish if they don't play in after a few bends.

Lovely finish and colour, cant find any marks.

The only thing that lets it down are the tuning keys, they are a very cheap looking plastic, chrome plate or a less translucent plastic would have looked better.
