HB JA-60SB Vintage Series : Usable

3 years ago

For the price, the quality is acceptable. If budget were higher, would rather spring for the CST24 with P90s (not sure if would have similar issues, but probably less likely). Overall, this is not a bad beginner guitar.

Cons:

- had to have very high action, fret buzz quite an issue on the bass strings

- extremely microphonic pickups

- really cheap electronics/knobs/switch

Pros:

- after sorting out the fret buzz (albeit with high action), is quite nice to noodle with

- no sharp frets

- neck is not bad

- stays in tune quite well
