DC-Junior TV Yellow : WTF?

4 years ago

I originally bought a guitar out of curiosity (I didn't have a P-90 equipped guitar yet). Can´t believe this guitar is for 199 EUR only. Really good made, neck profile near to my LP Custom, pickup very nice sounding Alnico 5, perfect fret job, no chinese building timber...

Donť forget set the guitar first, truss rod was fully loose and works very fine, do not overtighten (hex wrench is included)! This was the only setting that should be done.

Weak points:

Nut (zero fret) looks like strange material, will be replaced for bone soon.

Bridge can´t go low enough, saddles shoud be cca 1-2 mm lower to let set action less than 3 mm (for many players maybe O.K., but I like action little lower) - result: pickup to strings distance gets more than 5 mm, so I gave there a washer ring. Original Gibson LP Junior Tribute has got the same problem:-)

All in all, perfectly sounding and playing instrument for that money, comparable to another my much more expensive guitars!
