I read several great reviews on this guitar and they were all true. I have never been a fan of Fender acoustics in the past. But, it seems like they have made some big changes. This guitar is beautiful. The flamed maple is gorgeous. The sound and playability are great. I have a Gibson Hummingbird and the playability is actually better on the Fender. The fishman electronics work great, as well. Nice having a tuner built in. Can't recommend this guitar highly enough.
