DC-Junior TV Yellow : Great guitar

6 years ago

I needed a lighter guitar to help me out during marathon 3 hour gigs and wanted to add that P90 sound.

Very impressed with this. Flawless finish. Perfect setup right out the box. Intonation of every string spot on, no need for adjustment.

Roswell pickup not quite as hot as it could be, but delivers that P90 tone. Just add gain to taste.

Really nice purpleheart (amarynth) fretboard - plays fast and smooth and allows for easy bending with comfortable cutaway access to top fret. Better dressed frets than I've had on much more expensive guitars.

I'd saw a YouTube review saying the tone pot was dead between 2 and 8. Not this one; there's a fine sweep on both pots - and volume pot cleans up well. A single P90 at the bridge is never going to have the versatility of other types of guitar, but this is a straightforward rock machine.

Might consider installing a shim under the dogear at some point to increase depth of tone and increase output, and some locking tuners.

All in all - best buy I've made in a while. For any level of player this is a great guitar.
