CST-24T Black Flame : Pretty Good Value

8 years ago

I took the plunge on this a few weeks ago after reading reviews & watching YouTube vids on it

I am not disappointed !! Delivered in 3 days from ordering

The flame top is stunning, the workmanship is good & all of the parts are of a decent quality - My only issue is that there is a black mark on the binding of the lower horn, but I'm not fussy on that

The pickups are bass heavy (which I like a lot), & very powerful

The guitar itself is a lot heavier than I anticipated, borderline Les Paul weight, but I'm used to that

The action was too high for me when I got it, so I lowered it straight away - Intonation spot on - There was too much tension in the neck which caused the first fret on G B & E strings to not play at all

Truss rod adjusted & all is good

Finally, I did not want the tremolo but wanted the Black Flame finish - WHY OH WHY do Harley Benton not do the Black Flame in the wrap over bridge model ??

Anyhoo, if you have the money, & are not sure whether to buy this........Do it - You wont be disappointed
