CST-24T Emerald Flame : Excellent for total guitar player

This is my favorite guitar! I bought it because the color and features reminded me of the Brian Moore i9 I once had. Also want to compare with the PRS SE Custom 24 I have.

This guitar is a beauty for its price. The build, intonation, parts excellent. The Wilkinson Tremolo blew me away. It is perfect, comfortable and suited for my style of playing. The Coil tapping PUPS are so good modding is not warranted. The Pots work quite well. Note: it is nobody's fault that the fretboard was dry or that the backplate buckled within a few weeks. The time of year it was shipped and lack of humidity was the culprit. Easily fix with some mineral oil and time in a humidor. The sharp frets went away within a few weeks.

The tone is suited for the player that doesn't want to switch up guitars to change styles of playing. Good single coil sound that has the right amount of bite and Humbucking will satisfy just about anyone. Tonally it is very versatile .

Don't think of this as a cheap one off. Look at this gem as a inexpensive or affordable guitar that you don't have to fret about if something should happen to it.
