This guitar will serve me well for quite a few years...until I buy a custom made guitar.
Sound
The Guitar sounded full and round, with no obvious dead spots up the neck, and strong bass and trebles. It's expressive on soft passages and still sounds great when struck harder.
Ease of Use
I was surprised at how good this guitar sounded right out of the box without even putting new strings on it. The set up was just right, slightly less than 4mm on the bass side at the 12th fret, and 2.5mm on the treble side. The neck is slightly shallow in profile and is very very playable. The nut and saddle are bone and were cut and polished very very nicely.
Quality
It came with a Polyfoam case which looks like it will hold up well. It fits very nicely and cradles the guitar from damage. The quality of this guitar is outstanding. There are no glue indications on the inside, and the finish is thin and even...no buildups and no waviness. The tuners are really smooth without a hint of backlash, they feel very solid. The woodgrain looks nice and nicely matched. Overall the workmanship is excellent!
Value
This guitar was a very very good buy at the price point...it's very hard to get a all solid wood guitar for under 700.00...and this was a good buy.
