B-Stock instrument sold as New...?
Pros: The guitar sounds great. The color looks cool! Stays in tune, the nut needs no work.
Cons:
- there are some finish imperfections;
- out of the box, poor guitar setup - very high action;
- there is a visible 1x0.5cm scratch/indentation on the body of the guitar
- the neck comes with indentations, there are 4-5 damaged spots on the fretboard.
- pickup covers needed polishing out of the box
Thomann should not have sold this as a 'brand new' guitar.

Lovely guitar let down by poor finish
This is a really nice guitar and I really like the solid sparkly colour. The 50s neck is not chunky, it just feels really nice in the hand compared to the slimmer 60s neck. I was really surprised with the Burstbucker 1 pickup in the bridge, it's big and chunky with plenty of output for rock and metal music.
Unfortunately the guitar was let down with quality issues and is being returned. The rosewood used for the fretboard was poor, it had several areas of open grain which looked like the wood has split. Doesn't affect sound but aesthetically it looks poor. There was also some blobs of adhesive near the nibs/frets and I also had tool marks on several frets.
Overall a great guitar, but I was disappointed with the finish.
