CST-24HB Charcoal Flame : Satisfied customer

Though I'm getting a replacement due to a problem with the nut, I am very impressed by this guitar already.

To state the obvious: it looks amazing. The flameburst looks clear though that can vary, inside the f-holes it's not painted perfectly, but that isn't noticeable from afar. Some minor things like scratches and imperfections with the inlays.

Playability is great, glossy finish on neck feels great.

Sound is very rich and there is enough sound difference between the pickups, which have quite the output.

The sound is great for bluesy genres as well as heavier rock, don't expect the best results with fast shredding.

The neck and bride are adjustable for correct intonation and action, I couldn't get this 100% right due to the nut problem though.
