CST-24 Paradise Flame : Amazing guitar, with a huge wow to it.
So I'm a beginner, I wanted a guitar that I'd want to keep picking up, but quality at the price. This is that guitar. It's flawless, literally flawless.
It feels light to me, solid too. The toggle switch seems fine, pots fine, coil split fine. The machine heads tune well and strike me as responsive. The tone and volume pots were smooth and responsive.
Something that struck me is that I cannot see a scarf joint in the neck, no joint whatsoever. I mention this as there is a scarf joint in the photos.
In terms of the flame finish, it looks close to the tremolo CST-24T version than the CST-24 photos. I think it is worth remembering you won't literally get the finish in the photo and they're all individual, which is great I'd say.
All the binding and top is perfect, machine heads installed perfectly, nut too. Everything is finished to perfection.
The frets look polished and are certainly very smooth to the feel and when examining them.
I really can't see a single thing to put in my review as 'cons'.
This is the 'cheap' guitar I wanted to get to keep learning on, but with an incredible level of quality at that price point. It looks expensive and feels expensive, maybe 4 times it's actual cost for sure.
