SC-1000 SBK Progressive Line : Good guitar for the money.

Overall I'm happy but it has a few flaws.

Nothing that would push me to send it back.

A few minor finish flaws on the BACK of the body. No big deal.

After a quick set up...not bad. Lowered the bridge and cranked the neck back 1/8 of a turn and had perfect action. Intonation was spot on.

After checking all the positions I found one dead fret at #20 on the GDA & low E strings.

I plan on fixing that myself. Again, no big deal.

Again, I'm totally happy with my purchase. It's a good value for the money. I didn't expect great at this price point. I got something good. A bargain guitar that is playable and sounds fine. Don't expect great, you'll be disappointed. Expect a quality, playable, good looking, well thought out instrument at a very fair price.

Will I purchase another HB? Definitely!
