Fusion-T HH HT EB OCT : High quality instrument and a great bargain

This is my first HB guitar and I'm amazed by the excellent fretwork and the overall quality, especially considering the price. After a setup and a pickup replacement, it is now one of my favorites.

PROS

-- Amazing fretwork: neck is straight and even, trussrod works well and there's no fret buz even with silly low action.

-- Very thick and "juicy" ebony fretboard

-- Flawless body and headstock finish

-- Satin finish of the neck - feels almost like bare wood

-- Locking tuners work well and tuning stability is great

-- Good acoustic sound: highs are mellow, just a right amount of low end and the mids are even, all of which which can be expected from the maple neck with sapele body combo. Doesn't quite have the low mid push and warmth of a honduran mahogany Les Paul though.

-- Pots and pickup switch are well placed and do not get in the way of my right hand. My guitar is from a new batch where HB fixed the switch problem some were complaining about- it's at an angle now - not as in the posted here pictures.

CONS

-- My guitar came with very high nut action, and filing ithe nut was actually not an easy job.

-- Does not come with a good setup - you have to spend time to DIY or take it to a luthier, but that is the case with 99% of instruments under 1000 euro, but hey, this one is only 300.

-- Bridge pickup is awfull.

Overall a great guitar
