B&H build and finish quality since the '60s is massively variable from average to very poor.

Even 1010s aren't spared special treatment when it comes to finishing - while they may have pushed the boat out and used Gordon Beeson leather pads instead of skin pads, they were still glued in with Evo-Stik just as you'd find on a plastic Regent.

The opinions I express are my own.
