ST-70 Black Paisley : Nice guitar for price with a few issues

5 years ago

First let me say for the price its a decent guitar (I bought 2 HB's for my first purchases the other I loved this one is OK).

Liked the look of the this git, Paisley pattern very nice.

Use: Needed a Strat style guitar for recording, not sure I will use it live we will see.

Pros: It feels& sound like a Strat ,

Cons, Fret's needed some serious work both polishing & filing of fret ends. I hate the Tremolo as its too hard to maintain tuning stability, the arm is not a threaded arm, have to lift the bridge to install Not the easiest.Also because the nut was not cut great , string catches, but can assisted by graphite or nut lube!!. Tuning keys would be the the only other item I would change. But hey It's sound like I hate this guitar, I don't. I think with a little work It can be a gigging guitar where you don't worry to much if it gets banged around. Again Good Value for money , and I will be back for other HB's in the future
