Cuda75 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Snagged it outside of the bay and reverb. Been lurking looking for an uber clean Centaura at a fair price. We shall see how nice it is soon. NGD post coming next week. (LOL thanks toadroller for the acronym tip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Nice! I have it's identical twin. It's my only guitar now( just for noodling) being that I play bass. I can say it plays better than or as good as any guitar I have ever owned. I've had several different USA Hamers, PRS, etc. Plus, I dig the side markers.

Cuda75 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Good to know and happy to hear Ralph! I have a USA Diablo and it plays very smoothly. I have two slammer series centauras and this will be my first USA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuda75 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Not a full NGD, but her are some prelim pics... just received it today. Its in stellar shape for 31 years old. Some checking, hard to capture by photo. PS- my korean slammer is not as nice overall, but honestly, the slammer series after mods, are pretty legit..... Just sayin....

Cuda75 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Update. Spent a solid week playing this guitar. It really, truly plays so smooth. I thought the neck was a tad big at first, but it's real comfortable, and surprisingly fast! I love the ability to do vintage sounds, and then go right into harder rock. It's very versatile instrument. The surprise is the natural resonance the guitar has acoustically . I'll say the same for my USA diablos as well. Very resonant guitars. I understand the quality of the wood(s) and luthiership in these USA models. This Centaura is a keeper for sure ! My modded 94' Korean Centaura doesn't have that natural quality/ resonance that you can feel in your hands. Not a bad guitar, but not in the same league even with all the mods. I spoke too soon above... Anyhoo, I'm still looking for a clean maple fretboard variation with minimal to no paint checking like this one. Ocd is a bitch and patience is a virtue... 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
