The B-Bender mechanism works very smoothly and is easy to tune when restringing. It’s a very clean guitar, but it is NOT SHOWROOM PERFECT. The body is from an older guitar, has been repainted, and has a few minor flaws here and there. Maple neck has the “C-neck” feel of the vintage guitars, though the fretboard has a flatter radius than the older Teles. It’s a good looking, solid guitar and plays great.
Guitar is medium weight, approx 6 lbs (3 kg). You don’t need a heavy guitar to get big, fat tone. You can play this one all night without destroying your neck and shoulders.
B Benders are not for everyone, but if you’re a guitar picker who wants to head away from the crowd, you might want to check them out.
