Perdón por contestar en español. Mi inglés es bastante pobre. Tengo esta misma guitarra desde Diciembre de 2022. El color es idéntico a la tuya, El ocean flame actual es ligeramente diferente al de años anteriores y eso me encanta. Las pastillas P90 tienen un sonido muy, muy muy particular. Me gustan mucho más que las humbackers. Por otra parte está guitarra es muy cómoda. Estoy muy contento con la compra. Saludos desde España.
I don’t speak Spanish but I wonder if you’re saying you have the Humbucker version and you prefer it?? I like P90s and humbuckers for different reasons. Thank you for watching and greetings from the UK
That’s a really nice looking guitars with great specs, Rich 👍 There’s a chance the grub screw for the trem arm is at the bottom of the bridge. If you do a full dive bomb you will see it from behind of the bridge.
I'm thinking of getting this second hand cause I've got some old vintage Seymour Duncan p90 laying around for years. And I'm looking for a blue guitar to fit the Blues pick ups in 😅. Btw, it's a Wilkinson bridge. If you lift the bridge up with the vibrato handle down then you should see an Allen key slot to tighten the vibrato arm.
I have one of these Rich (but not the P90 version) and I love it, second hand cost me £150👍. Got a little headstock damage in transit sadly so currently in the shop, charging me £25, but that's still just £175 for a £238 instrument, it's virtually mint, so I can live with that. Must hit some Santana riffs when I get it (and my arm) back!
@@thenovicenoisemaker Then I will listen to you and opt for the CST 24 T version, instead of its P90 version. Thank you very much for your recommendation. Congratulations on the channel! 👍🏻
you've been lucky man, I had to return mine (about a month ago) because of an assembly defect on the nut and some scratches on the top. It's a beautiful guitar I'm missing now ... I think I'll give it another try and customer service was really OK, they payed for the return and refunded the entire amount.
I passed on a Harley Benton Strat white with gold scratch plate,.....gone when I went back to guitar center, but like you, I think they are great, just have too many.
Rich - What's up, Brother? Hope all is well over there. Man... that is one AWESOME guitar. I know... because I had 2 of them. One in Red Flame Maple with the Buckers, as you mentioned. And then... I had this EXACT guitar. Ocean Blue with the P-90s. Man.... that was one of the best guitars I ever played, or ever owned. I had to get rid of it though, and so I put it into a trade package... because the color (colour LOL) run on mine was God-AWFUL. It came out a brownish turd blue. I've never seen anything quite like it. Just a mistake in that run. But the guitar was absolutely phenomenal. I mean... Flawless. And the P90s in mine SMOKED!! One of the top 2 or 3 guitars I've ever owned... and I've had a LOT of em! Love love love this guitar, and I have been wanting to order another one - a replacement, forever. I've got to get that done soon. OK Bro - awesome guitar. Keep that thing!! And rock on, Brother!
Turd blue 😂😂😂 Definitely sounds like you need to get another one! Such good value for money and one of their best ones I think. Hope all with you Jimmy, nice to hear from you 👍🏻
Greetings, Rich, I've got the same one in black. I thought the P90's were substandard only to discover it's the potentiometers. A cheap mod and worth it. 2nd hand is the way to go with HB guitars. Cheers!
That’s very kind, thank I you 🙏. Got a bit stuck this past 12 months. My fingers are quicker and my improv to backing tracks is a lot better, I can play standing up reasonably well but that’s about it. I’ve recently bought an online course which I’ve just started, bit of inspiration and new things and theory to learn so see how that goes. Thanks for asking ☺️. Hope you have a a fun New Year’s Eve and all the best for 2024
Hi there It’s a sort reddish brown so I guess you could call it dark copper. It’s a pretty guitar for sure 👌🏻 Thanks for watching and commenting, much appreciated.
the body 2023 not is match to the body cst 24 year 2018 , body 2023 is more flat on the top. the model 2018 has dimension. sorry for my english, i dont speak
Oh no ! This one had locking tuners too. Imagine if I still had all 197 guitars, I’d be homeless with a huge shopping trolley pushing my guitars around the streets 🤣🤣
3 weeks ago I got a CST 24T Humbucker version with a graphite nut and stainless steel frets, I am blown away about the quality! Absolute flawless guitar, same level as on my Player Fender Strat or Ibanez AR 420. This two guitars are now gathering dust, the Harley Benton is a great fun to play! ☺👍🏻

Yes I had a humbucker version too, preferred the pickups in that one to be honest. Hope you’re healing quickly Mike 🙏
Congratulations for the review, it is brutal! 👍🏻 Which guitar would you choose if you could only keep one, the HB CST 24 T, or the CST 24 P90?
Hi Alejandro
Thank you for watching and commenting.I’d have the CST with humbuckers, I have a review in my playlist. I prefer the sound out of that 👍🏻

Hi John
That’s the problem with affordable guitars, you can collect too many! What’s your go-to guitar?
When I first saw the thumbnail I thought 'Negan got a new Lucille' . All that aside nice axe.
Haha 😂 and thank you

Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Hi. Thanks for posting this. What locking tuners did you use to replace the stock tuners?
Thank you. They were already on it but I think they were Vanson
Please tune it
That just wouldn’t be me
Been watching you for years mate how's the guitar progress coming along
That’s very kind, thank I you 🙏.

Good to have you here 👍🏻
Is that fretboard copper color? Love the body!

Afternoon young man .lol. How you doing rich .have you had any problems with the trem arm on that model .
Hiya Sam
I’m good, hope you are too.
No issues so far…
Oi!!! Rich, you’re NOT crap! Rock in dude ❤
Bless you thank you 🙏❤️

That’s interesting Enrique, thanks for sharing 👍🏻
I am hoping HB makes an SE 594 knock off.
Yea that would be great!!
146 guitars??? Not enough to be labelled a hoarder.😂😂😂
Mine has small pots and a plastic tremblock. Am sure previous owner modded yours, Rich. Cheers!
Oh no ! This one had locking tuners too.
Imagine if I still had all 197 guitars, I’d be homeless with a huge shopping trolley pushing my guitars around the streets 🤣🤣
no screw to tighten the trem arm? man that is lousy!!
Yes, not cool but otherwise a good guitar
That guitar HAS a trem fastening screw!
