HB-35Plus Cherry : OK

8 years ago

Not as good as I expected, but OK for the price. Previously received CST-24HB was in much better condition.

Pros:

Feels good, like to play it.

Finish is almost flawless.

Looks nice.

Pickups sound OK and electronics works as expected.

Tuners ares smooth.

Cons:

Fretboard is dirty.

Frets are almost unfinished, flat at top and with grinding marks, bending is hard.

Nut slot is routed at angle and nut is therefore at angle. String cavities are ok, so it will not affect string height, but looks weird.

Logo sticker is scratched and couple of millimeters off.

Scratchplate design looks bad.

I'm able to fix those issues, otherwise I'd need luthiers help.
