I'm going to stay with this guitar. It fits me very well and feels so comfortable. The only thing i would do is possible upgrade to a N series with a Stephens cutaway. But i will still keep and use My N2. I have played other guitars and i have always been a fan of Nuno. I finally decided to give his product a try and why not? I mean if this man aprroves this guitar, it's got to be a great product to carry his name on it. If this product ended up missing, i would replace it with the same one. What i like the most about it is the size and weight, the comfirt and simplicity. Theres nothing i really dislike about it. I just wish it had a cutaway and came with a hard case instead of gig bag. And maybe come with the N2 decals so they dont have to be ordered seperatley.
Sound
I love the sound of the N2. Its just what i was looking for. You can get that sound of Nuno or switch it up to something more classic. The tremolo works great and also gives a great sound to some songs where its called for.
Features
The product came with a gig bag, and some hardware to adjust the string locks. It also came with a short guitar cord and a few small items. The feature i like the most on the guitar would be the single push pull knob. I dont like to have 4 knobs to adjust during songs. Its straight to the point with this guitar. I also love the string locks. I used to have a guitar with a tremolo on it, that i went away from because the guitar… read more would constently have to be tuned.
Ease of Use
I find it very easy to find the sound on this guitar. The amp i have also helps too. But this N2 is straight to the point. You should be able to find the sound you are looking for pretty easy.
Quality
This product arrived with no blemishes. Excellent craftsmenship. The body is a perfect weight giving lots of mobility. The neck is the size i've been looking for. You can hit low cords and shoot up to the high ones with ease. I wish the cutaway cam on this guitar, but the design still gives you better access for high notes more than other guitars i've played. The N2 feels very durable, i dont feel worried about its durability. I would recommend getting a hard shell case though. This guitar is too nice to have in a gig bag.
Value
For the price that ZZsounds sells this item for is the best price you will find for a brand new N2. This guitar plays just like $1000 guitar. I'll take quality over price any day.

The Wow Factor
I love the natural look, which doesnt work on all guitars. The chrome accents on the Tremolo and string locks are very sharp. I like that the guitar doesnt have a shiny coat to it. You dont have to worry about finger prints and smudges. The tuners and Tremolo bar are chrome as well and it just makes this guitar very sexy wear you just stare at it befor you even play it. I also recommend for that N2 finished look to buy the N2 decals that you see on his N4 and other models.
