ST-62 SB Vintage Series : Exceptional value for money. Perfect if you know how to set a guitar up yourself

I?m really happy with this guitar. The pickups are really good. It?s nice and resonant and now I?ve done some work on it, it plays and sounds awesome. No sharp edges on the frets but they needed a level. The action was very high to begin with and could not be brought much lower before I levelled the frets. After doing that it is much better. The nut slots also needed a fair bit of cutting and cleaning out to bring the action at the nut end lower and make the tuning stable. When I took the neck off it took a chunk of lacquer off that obviously hadn?t fully dried. Coloured it in with a sharpie and it?s not particularly noticeable. I also shielded the cavities. That all being said, now I?ve done the work it plays and sounds as good as any other Strat I?ve played including ones over a grand. The good thing is, I don?t have any worries about damaging it etc as it cost peanuts. I?ve already ordered a Harley Benton 335 to keep it company
