CST-24T Black Cherry Flame : HB CST-24T black cherry

Bought this guitar because of the praising reviews on the internet and I must say I am really impressed buy this ¤222 guitar.

The body has some minor laquer flaws at the binding and on the high frets there are 3 or 4 fret ends which are not filed down. Filed these frets myself, no big deal.

Pick-up rings were gaping a little, screws were tightened too much and the srew holes in the rings were slightly too small. Used a drill to open them a bit more.

Body:

- nice weight

- neck profile ok

The hardware:

- the Wilkinson trem works really well

- tuners are nothing special, I would have liked locking ones.

- pots work fine, again nothing special

Pickups are the Roswell ones, I like the sound: no muddiness, clearly defined, mid/high gain output. Coil split works really nice and cleans up the sound, though you lose a little volume.

All in all I am impressed by this HB, it looks, sounds and plays really nice. My favourite guitar used to be my heavily modded Epi LP, but now the HB is my go to one.
