Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
The guitar sounds great, intonation is good but the fact that the frets stick out on the fingerboard sides means you'll have to file them. Check out you-tube or use fingernail/emery boards like I did. Also changing to high tension strings will really improve the sound.

too long, guitar, bass, piano, singer. Professional
