Squier Affinity Starcaster Candy Apple Red MN

This guitar is great value for money, especially if you are ready to accept one or two slight short comings - these are perhaps to be expected at the price. The general build quality and paint finish is really pretty good and the design and handling is good too. The potential pliability is 'really' promising, again, for the price, but the setup out of the box was not great, with a high action and poorly adjusted pickup height.
I am happy to do the setting up (but if you are not, it would be worth getting this done), and this is where the short comings come in.
Firstly the tone control/pot does not do much and the toggle switch is not great quality. The second issue is partly a design failing (which I did realise before I bought the guitar) and this is the fact that the bridge radius is far flatter than the fingerboard radius, so action height is always going to be a compromise. This would be fine if the frets had been level, unfortunately, they were not. This is more than I would take on, so I'm having this done by a guitar tech I know... to me it's worth doing because overall the guitar is such good value and feels so good to play that this certainly justifies the work that's needed.
