SC-450Plus VB Vintage Series : Amazing guitar at an amazing price

Straight out of the box this guitar looks amazing. It's very well finished and you'd never guess it was a budget model. Same goes for the sound, I plugged it into a Vox Pathfinder 10 watt practice amp and it sounds amazing, I love it. The coil splitting is an added bonus to give more versatility with single-coil type sounds as well. Clean tones on the neck pickup are just gorgeous. It's solidly built and comfy to play with no sharp fret ends. One small niggle is that the strings were a little dirty, but a quick blast of fast fret soon cleaned them up.

Pros

- Price is unbeatable

- Excellent finish, it looks great on your wall

- Excellent tones, especially clean on the neck pickup

- Good set up out of the box

- Coil splitting adds versatility

Cons

- 1 or 2 frets could do with a polish (no big deal)

- Tuner aren't the best quality

- Tone and volume pots aren't the best, but still do the job

Overall, this is a great guitar for beginners and advanced players alike. Straight out of the box, beginners will love it. More advanced players may want to do a bit of fret polishing and throw on some of their favourite strings, then it's ready to rock. Also a great platform to upgrade from if you want to further down the line.
