SC-450Plus VB Vintage Series : Way more guitar than I expected.

5 years ago

First, I was blown away getting my guitar in two days (after the order was processed), Germany to Florida, U.S. Surreal, I suspected witchcraft might be involved.

Second, the guitar was equally surprising. I had seen all the You Tube videos showing a flaw in the finish here, a run in the binding there, and was prepared for that at this remarkable price point. What I received was a one piece (no glue joint-none!) mahogany body, perfectly intonated, perfect neck relief, flawlessy crafted instrument. Which weighs a friggin' TON, but you should have already been prepared for that if you bought this style guitar. I have truly fine tooth combed this instrument and cannot find a single ding, scratch, run, screw unset, tuner out of alignment, sprouted fret,, nothing. Neck is true and flat. Frets are level. Plays beautifully, But did I mention that it's heavy? Because it is. Seriously heavy. Just sayin', get a good locking strap for it, 'cause you'll need it. But lugging that weight is worth it when you discover how it plays and how it sounds. Great guitar!
