SC-550 II PAF : Not as pretty as advertised, solid guitar.

Negatives: The maple top is far from AAA. I have seen grain more consistent on building lumber. The back and neck have a toffee apple level of opaqueness, unlike the photos on the web site which appear quite translucent. Again, less pretty than I hoped.

Also came with the wrong size truss rod hex key. Luckily I have my own tools, as it did need a set up to be playable. Came with fret buzz.

Positives: Once the truss rod and bridge were adjusted the action and playability are good. The frets are even and level enough to get en extremely low action.if needed.

Overall: A decent player and decent sound for the money. Not one to get if you are not used to setting up guitars. I have a B Stock FTF which has a far better wood grain and finish but the bridge was drilled far to deep. The price point does come with issues. With some work and time they are eminently giggable.
