Amarok-6 BKNT Flame Burst : I would gladly pay 100€ more to get a guitar without finish flaws.

This guitar ennoys me. It feels great, sounds pretty good and looks great from a distance. The frets are perfect, construction and build feels great. The pickups are passive design but with an added active preamp. They are hotter than a PAF, but not super hot. Neck shape is comfortable, a bit wide, flat, not thin at all. Reminds me a bit of the neck shape of ESP EII's. My main frustration with this guitar is that there are some pretty obvious finish flaws that could have been prevented. On the front of the headstock there is some glue recidu which can't be removed because it is underneat the finish. It is very noticble because the headstock has a dark color. On the back of the body there are more spots and lines of finish or glue that can easily be seen. Same story, it is underneath the finish so it can't be removed. The binding on the body looks like wood, looks great, but at the top of one of the horns of the body this wooden binding seems sanded? It has completely lost it's wood color and looks white. It could be glue as well, glue that has been sanded or polished? Anyways great guitar build, looks great from a distance but up close it ha some obvious cosmetic flaws which could have been avoided. So if HB makes another batch, price them 50 euros higher and spent a bit more time on finishing the guitar without any flaws. I do realize that I could have been unlucky and received that one guitar with the noticeable finish flaws.
