Hils tremolo or nah

I was wondering if it would make more sense to buy the hardtail HILS guitar as the tremolo is proprietary and in case it breaks there is no substitute available? Well, you might be able to buy from them but they could have moved on to a newer version or gone out of business or w/e.

I hear that basically every tremolo system is prone to wear and tear so just being cautious.

Also: can anyone please honestly say if the neck is fat or not?

Sonic Mustang

I just wanted to say that I am extremely happy with my Sonic Mustang SS. Everything about it is superb, weight, neck, ergonomics, sound, looks. Even QC was top notch.

Big recommendation, especially if you have smol fingers.

Harley Benton SC-Custom III Satin Paradise

Interested in this model but a couple of questions.

​

The neck is thin, right?

The satin neck is smooth, right?

How does it balance on the leg?

How does it balance on a strap?

St-modern HSS hum?

Hello, does this model have crazy hum when not touching the strings? My Sonic Mustang has horrible hum and my PJ mustang bass from HB has some. I hate it but would probably want a HSS configuration soundwise.

​

Watched some videos about the Roswell LAF humbuckers and quite like their sound. There is a HB-35plus available near me for cheap so kind of thinking if I should just get that. It is huge though.

Lead playing guitar recommendations

I am happy with my Squier Sonic Mustang with its 9.5" radius and 24" scale for chordal playing, but it does feel awkward to shred on.

I was wondering if you guys would have any suggestions where to look for a more lead oriented guitar? Important is that the pups would not be too noisy, 25"+ scale, 3 pups, flattish radius and the most important thing is that the neck would not be too thick.

I love my Yamaha basses' necks (and the Sonic Mustang is cool too) and was wondering if Yamaha would be good? I have been eyeing Cort too. And being in Europe, Harley Benton intrigues me but I hear the necks are not the slimmest.

The budget is less than or around 400e.

I am not opposed to buying used at least if the guitar comes with stainless frets but not too many interesting ones available near where I live.

Budget fingerstyle oriented guitar

I'm interested in getting an acoustic for fingerstyle. I am considering only ones with 45mm nuts. I already have 42mm electric and 52mm classical guitars.

So far I have basically only found this:

Which seems like a good choice but, I would love to get one with a soloist cut, any suggestions? My budget is 500e but preferably even less. Europe.
