    Perfect except for the tuners

    Harley Benton CST-24TPublished on 01/02/20 at 17:12
    Ampifier Peavey Triple XXX Combo Behringer digital delay, Danelectro Flange. If they would have used quality tuners, this guitar would put PR$ on notice. The Roswell HAF (PAF 59 knockoff) pickups are just awesome. I have used Freds, Tone Zones, Pearly Gates, PG Plus, Burstbucker Pros, JBs, now after 35 yrs of playing I have finally found the pickup I've been looking for. The neck after some straightening is perfect. Expect to do spend some time setting up this guitar if you want it to be just right. Gotta lube the nut too or she ain't staying in tune. Harmonics are excellent. I like everything about it except for the tuners. Dropped the ball on that one. Floating trem works very well. Frets…

    A really top notch guitar!!!

    I bought it after reading enthusiast comments by people who’d bought it before I did… so no need to add too much (just go and see the website of the well-known German online retailer that sells this brand), but in short PRS had better watch out, for such a price the result is just incredible…

    The single shortcoming I've found is the tremolo arm which wouldn’t stay in place, the hole seemed too big so I asked on the retailer’s website what to do (they didn’t know what to tell me – too bad...).
    In the end, I found the answer by myself when setting the guitar again as for string height, vibrato (unfastened the springs, the six bridge screws, truss rod and so on): the tremolo arm gets block…

    In the end, I found the answer by myself when setting the guitar again as for string height, vibrato (unfastened the springs, the six bridge screws, truss rod and so on): the tremolo arm gets blocked using a small BTR screw which can be accessed through the black rear part by pushing the bridge and vibrato forward! (the screw can’t be seen as it’s hidden in the vibrato’s hole when in normal position).

    For the price, the finish is really high-quality... It wouldn’t blush in front of the “original”, so in the end this guitar is plain magic!
