R-457MN WH Fanfret : Not as good as reviews say

5 years ago

Received it with a ding on a headstock. Everything else cosmetically was very good. Pickups are quite muddy, Definitely will change it in the future.

Fret ends are very smooth, but tops are rough. I can see tooling marks and inconsistencies in fret crowns. Bending is possible only in some places on a neck because of that, although, I think polishing frets will fix it.

Strings are highish, ill try to lower it down and hopefully there will be no fretbuzz.

Tuners are cheap, but holds tuning for a day.

I'd say, if you dont want to put any work in it, dont get it. But I will keep it, overall its cool guitar, it just needs some love :)
