Harley Benton CST-24 Paradise Flame 2023 - Not Perfect But Good Potential
Let the killer look of this guitar not blend you, be careful and spend proper time for testing. This was my 3rd Harley Benton CST-24 (T) with bad fret work.
PRO:
Low weight, great look, good sounds, well balanced
CON:
Bad fret work... too high... too low frets causing string buzzing if you want to play with lower action. Fret board edges not rounded
Without fret leveling or at least spot leveling on the long term no fun to play. Means no guitar for the ones under us they can not or not wanting to do this modification...
