ST-20HH Active SBK : Quality control is slacking

3 years ago

Hi! So first of all, the guitar sounds awesome and looks awesom, no questions there.

Now the issues:

- frets are sharp, like pulling skin sharp. I'll see what can I do there

- volume knob was loose. I had to tighten the knob so that I don't actually tear the cables inside

- some minor bumps and paintwork. On the horns there is a glossy part. That can be fixed with the smoothest of sandpapers, but still

Overall I was hyped that the frets are fine from all the reviews on YT and forums, but the hype was killed the moment I grabbed the guitar since I felt it right away.

Quality control MUST be better, even for budget instruments like this
