Larry Carlton T7 TS

I rate this max points because the quality and features you get at this price point are amazing compared to say Fender.

Some of pros for me:
-- The biggest surprise was the roasted maple neck. It feels amazing! Very smooth with no issues sliding around the neck.
-- Rolled fingerboard edges.
-- Staggered locking tuners.
-- Sounds great (although not a "vintage" sound) for anything except metal (too thin or too muddy sounding for me)
-- Frets were polished with no sharp edges.

Some cons:
-- Fret bevel is too close to the strings and it makes it very easy for a string to slide off the fretboard when doing bends or vibrato. I have to play pretty carefully to avoid it.
-- My T7 is around 3.8 kg which is a bit heavy. I like light guitars.
-- Minor cosmetic issues that don't affect playability.

Overall I can easily recommend T7 to anyone who wants a more modern T shape and doesn't mind a non vintage tone.
