Very Nice Guitar

Yorkshire Lad 13.06.2024

Recieved this morning and as always, very well packaged.
Pros....
The fit and finish is excellent
pick ups sound great
The flamed maple top is perfect
The neck feels great, the flame realy stands out
Tuners fell good quality, although a little stiff
Th bridge is very high quality

Cons....
I think this is to rival the Fusion series. I have aFusion HSH in Bengal Burst (fantastic guitar) cost less than this one did, however, HB have opted to put the cheapest string trees on, (roller string trees on the Fusion) and normal locking tuners, as opposed to staggered, which are on the fusion.

The bridge Humbucker seems very loose and wobbly. Maybe its just mine and the springs have moved.
Also, the description of this guitar on the Thomann website states that the fretboard has rounded edges. It deffo doesn't, they're some of the sharpest I've felt on any guitar. I think this is just a mistake in the description and needs removing.

And finally, there is no country of manufacture on the headstock, just a barcode. Never seen this before. Rang Thomann and they seem to think they are made in the Sire factory in China, but wasnt 100% sure.

Overall though this this guitar is really good with high end features. Well worth th money.

Nicht optimal

Rainer365 14.06.2024

Tolles Instrument mit jedoch kleinen Unzulänglichkeiten. E6 läuft nicht gerade über den Hals. Nähert sich in oberen Lagen der Griffbrettkante. Dadurch e1 ziemlich entfernt von derselben. Die Oktavreinheit wird hierdurch beeinträchtigt. Ob ich sie behalte, ist noch nicht entschieden.

Tolles Instrument aber

Thom H 10.06.2024

Ein wunderschönes und in Bezug auf die Finishes einwandfrei verarbeitetes Instrument. Der Hals/ Korpusübergang ist so wie man es von einer modernen Strat erwartet. Der mattierte Hals hat ein angenehmes D-Profil, flacher als bei einer HB Fusion II aber dicker als bei meiner American Fender Strat Baujahr 2008. Und auch flacher als bei meinen PRS Silver Sky oder Fiofres. Die Bundenden sind sehr schön gefeilt und stehen nicht über. Das kratzt nichts an der Hand! Dasselbe gilt für die Decke und den Hals. Sehr sauber verabeitet, der Hals mit mattem Finish. Mit dem Babizc Tremoloarm konnte ich mich gut anfreunden. Das er etwas höher aufsteht fand ich nicht übermäßig störend. Man kann trotzdem die Seiten gut dämpfen. Auch der Sound der Tesla Pick-Ups hat mich überrascht und ist sehr veillseitig und brauchbar. Das Set-up war mit einer zu niedrigen Seitenlage nicht astrein und führt in der Werkseinstellung zu Schnarren. Hier muss der versierte Gitarrist Hand anlegen oder einen Gitarrenbauer seiner Wahl aufsuchen. Die Edelstahlbünde benötigen noch lange Spielzeit oder komplettes Polieren um die Rauhigkeit zu verlieren. Was mich persönlich aber sehr irritiert hat ist die parallel zu den Bundstäben verlaufende und deutlich sichtbare farblich chargierende Maserung des Griffbretts. Das bewirkt dann im schlimmsten Fall ein Verwechseln der Grifflage. Deshalb habe ich zu meinem großen Bedauern - ein so schönes Instrument gibt man nicht leicht wieder her - entschlossen, das Instrument nicht zu behalten. Der Thomann Service und die Lieferzeiten waren wie immer perfekt.

Calidad-precio insuperable

Namuel77 13.06.2024

Me acaba de llegar esta maravilla y no puedo estar más contento con esta guitarra.
Una genial "actualización" de las Fusion, vale cada euro que cuesta. La calidad del mueble es muy buena, el peso perfecto, el sonido genial, los detalles están bien cuidados (aunque para gustos... la altura de las cuerdas puede mejorar) y los extras le dan ese toque premium: los clavijeros con bloqueo, el mástil tostado (ni caso a los comentarios, los inlais se ven perfectos si no eres muy miope), el puente de calidad, las cuerdas Elixir añaden valor extra.
El potenciómetro de volumen va perfecto, el de tono va un poco suelto, pero supongo que será por el sisteman push-pull.
Dicho esto, no es mi Fender Classic del 93 o mi Ibanez RGT, ni mi Player Plus siquiera... Pero ninguna de esas vale 450€.
Una gran compra, acierto seguro.
