Sound
Good quality sound as a single guitar or with several others.
Features
Very nice materials and easy to touch up, good because mine has suffered a few little scars :)
Quality
Very good quailty, perfect condition when I bought it. I am don't treat instrument the best, even though I love them. This has stood up for months now. I have drilled holes for straps and scratched it with a pick. Each time it is easily resored by the beginer if they want it in perfect condition.
Value
Yes it is worth what I paid for it. I think it will serve me well for years to come. I stared learing on it and I can see it suiting me for a long time.
Manufacturer Support
I have not needed any repairs and I have done upgrades myself. No problems!
The Wow Factor
I it a really nice piece. Other guitars the same price or cheaper, which a beginer may be inclined to buy, are not so nice. A number of my friends paid 20$ less for their first guitar but within 6 months realized that it is actually quite ugly, undeserving of even a name.

Musical Style:

Flamenco, Jazz, Blues, Ragae...
