TE-90QM Trans Red : BUDGET GUITAR WITH FAULTS.

9 years ago

PROS.- Very well packed, fast delivery.

CONS:

1. Rust on the strings.

2. Hole in the fretboard, approx. . 3/16ths.

3. Heavy filing scores on three frets.

4. Bridge radius incorrect.

5. Intonation incorrect.

6. Body finish poor, near binding.

7. Very sharp fret ends.

I habe changed the strings, and used wood filler to fill the hole in the fretboard. It took 3 hours, to polish out the heavy scoring on the frets, and smooth all of the sharp fret ends. The bridge radius was reset, and the intonation adjusted.

I knew that was not going to be a top of the range, hand made guitar, but to arrive with so many faults, is not good enough. I was thinking of ordering a Harley Benton Acoustic Guitar, but after this experience, I will look elsewhere!
