CST-24T Paradise Flame : almost perfect - apart the painting

The guitar is almost perfect, yes I will change tuners and pick ups for better ones, but these do their honest job. Once filed and lubed the nut, removed the central spring tremolo of the three, accurately set up the guitar works perfectely. The frets do not buzz nor have sharp edges, but yes could be better polished. The real bad is the painting: too much filler between the binding and the veneered top, TOO much, also in some spots the paint coloures the binding. The colour of the veneer is so unrealistic that may let you think it is not even a wood veneer but just a picture of some kind stuck over the top. I would prefer much better for the top the simple natural "asian mahogany" of the back and the neck. Finish flaws a part I had to say that I am so happy with the guitar that I bought even the blue with P90s on it (P90s sound much better than hunbuckers and blue veneer looks more like made of wood). The neck shape is superb: a mix of modern C andh PRS slimmer pattern regular but not so wide as PRS wide thin: I love it better than PRS pattern regular and wide thin. I'm plannig tu buy a third one in black flame hoping that the wood filler around the binding will be less visible in that dark colour.
