TE-62DB CAR : Good value but.

2 years ago

Pro's. Out of the box it looked good,the neck feels great,no blemishes.Tuners do an ok job but i wasn't expecting that much from them anyway. Pickups sound surprisingly good so i won't be changing them.Overall a very nice first impression.

Con's. The action was high and alot of fret buzz. Lowering the action made it worse so i checked the truss rod,decent enough relief in the neck. Out with the fret rocker to see how uneven the frets were,not good.Levelled the frets and managed to get 1.75 and the treble end an 2.00 at the 12th fret bass end without too much buzz. Changing the strings every ferrule fell out of it's back pocket.Superglued back in.

To be honest for the money this is a good guitar despite the work i had to do on it. Out of the box it was not gig worthy so think about taking it to a luthier if you're planning on taking it out live. Mine i would descibe as salmon pink if you think it's going to be red. I bought a cheap guitar with low expectations so i feel i got good value for money but wouldn't buy another one.
