TE-62CC SP : Blown away by this guitar

3 years ago

I ordered one of these, with a healthy degree of scepticism. If seen the reviews online (mostly good) and thought I'd take the plunge. I got sent one, which was lovely, sounded great and felt good. However it weighed a hefty 4.8kg. I decided I couldn't gig with that on my shoulder so I sent it back and ordered another one, since wood can have a natural fluctuation in density. I got a second one (this one) and it sounded great, felt good and weighed in at 3.4kg. Happy days!!

The fingerboard could do with a better finish, but the neck itself is fast. The pickups are outstanding at this price point. The switch and controls and good and responsive. The tuners hold well (better than a squier imo). Great strings. If I had a niggle, it would be for a wider fingerboard, I run out of space when bending. But it plays well. The nut and saddles are functional. Probably will upgrade these at some point. The electronics and soldering look tidy. The finish is flawless. The weight balance seems optimum. Honestly, I feel like I owe someone some money, what a steal!!
