ST-62MN VW Vintage Series : ideal for fun

7 years ago

Bought this one for mods and fun.

I already done some mods so I've met the guitar wery well.

Wood quality is surprisingly good. Had to expand tuning holes for HB locking machines and wasn't easy because wood is well dried. Truss rod is god, and guitar came with perfect guitar profile.

Guitar came with high action so I had to lower it. Tremolo isn't precise for setting up action, but whole guitar costs like some tremolos here on site and I understand it.

Had to change string immediately.

Neck is so beautiful looking and well polished, the frets are so good and even. But, it is too fat for my taste, I like thinner necks. Also, very glossy back of the neck so my fingers sticks on it when playing fast and sloppy.

Have buzzes on opened B string, because of nut is a bit lower on that position than the first fret, so I needed extra setting on tremolo with that string and it stayed high on action. I'll remove that tremolo soon, very unstable for setting up, but overall good when you set up everything.

I recommend guitar for beginners and for modification for someone who loves fat neck.
