I've had the Cabronita tele, SG custom (3 pickups) and SG Jr, and my sister got the Fusion HH hardtail Tele. I don't think the Cabronita Tele needed any fretwork at all, the SG Jr was a little scratchy but playing for a few minutes fixed them, and the SG Custom wasn't too bad but benefitted from a polish* and my sister's Fusion Tele could also do with a polish which I haven't got as far as doing yet (but it's still totally playable without one, just a little scratchy).
I've said before, but I actually think the Roswell stock pickups aren't that bad- if they weren't sold as a set! I agree, the neck pickup is way too middy/warm while the bridge is too bright. If they were paired with a different other pickup they'd be decent for stock pickups. As it is, they don't work super-well as a set.
*I need to go easier on that, I only got round to doing it the other day and when I was done my wrist was absolutely killing me! Luckily it more or less got better after running it under cold water for a few minutes, and was basically completely fine about a day later, but I was worried at the time I'd done some serious damage...
Harley Benton CST-24 Amber Stripes – Thomann UK
also a charcoal flame Hollow as mentioned
and a P90 black flame one
and a Black cherry flame one that I put B-sized P90s into.
Being ultra-picky I'd probably prefer 22 frets as well... they all seem to be 24, even the semi-hollow and P90 ones.
ive used vanson on several guitars, very nice pickups indeed. Entwistle and warman were also good for the money as well.
The Harleys are superb guitars for the money. I've got 4 and could easily add to that. All have been modded/ upgraded to varying degrees.
