TE-52 NA Vintage Series : Basically a good guitar for the money, but will need some work

13 years ago

Basically a good guitar for the money, let down by poor quality tuners and mine desperately needed some fretwork. The plus side is good quality wood, in the body and neck, classic though body stringing and great sounding pickups. The downside is as with most high production cheap guitars, the quality control on the setup is very poor, and my guitar needed a fret dress to remove the very sharp edges, and a fret level to get the action to a reasonable standard without buzzing. The only hardware disappointment is the machine heads which feel stiff and unresponsive, so I’ll probably upgrade those soon. If you buy one of these guitars I would budget for a decent setup and fret level/dress.
