Beautiful korean flametop doublecut. Carved top hollow? Ish? Just wondering what anyone knows cr in general or the cm1 specifically. Kind of a pres. Or a hollow ad3k? How does it compare.

Other references on the interwebz refer to it as an HB-1.

Pretty looking guitar! Go for it!

i have one.
Full hollow, with sustain block under the bridge & tail[piece. Top is solid maple, 3/4" thick (i believe). Don't know if top is veneered or solid.
Can't compare to upscale Agiles, but overall, i can't find anything to quibble about, Q.C.- wise.
i put a set of Duncan Jazz/JB pickups in mine, big improvement.

Hb1 sounds right. Where the hell did I get cm1? Thanks

Interesting. Sam Ash house brand, I think. They had some nice Jazz boxes available a long time ago. That headstock is the same as the Vantage brand. Probably the same factory.
