Custom Line ResoKing BK : Surprisingly good.

2 years ago

So I just unboxed this guitar and after very close inspection, I can only say this build quality goes far beyond the price you pay. You definitely feel as though you're playing something much more costly. Finish is perfect, fretwork is very good though a good fret polish is needed; action and intonation are just about spot on. It plays very well and it may not be a high end instrument but it definitely gives me the tones only a resonator can (good enough to record convincingly) at a fraction of the normal cost. The only downside are the tuners which are quite stiff and will be replaced, but they still work well enough for use at home. Be careful which shipping method you choose, I inadvertantly chose UPS instead of DHL...it arrived within 3 days to Canada but the charges were about $40 higher AND they hit me for an additional $112 CDN for duty! They are vultures. I would rather have waited the extra week, I could have bought another HB with the difference. Still, happy with all 4 of my HB instruments and will surely wind up with a couple more, I'll just be sure to double check the shipping method at checkout.
