"Great Guitar for Beginners and Experts alike..."

Feature:
No extras, but it has an onboard tuner that just rocks and makes it so much better than having to use a normal tuner. The cutout makes it great to get the high notes on the higher frets.

Quality:
Nothing vibrates or sounds loose. It is just solid, when I pick up this guitar and my old guitar I can just feel the difference in the wood and how the fret is attached to the body. Solid spruce top I believe it is and it has the X piece in that makes it sound just plain solid.

Value:
Yes, it is worth what I paid for it and probably what this site sells it for too.

Desirability:
It's a good looking pretty guitar. The inlays are gorgeous, the ebony stipes are nice, the mosaic in-lay is great, but it's not the prettiest ever, but then again, it's a standard natural finish, so you get the standard of the guitar.

Sound:
The sound is rich and deep. It seems the cords will echo for ever if you keep your hands on the fret board and just sit.

Ease of Use:
Everything is pretty up front. The action seems to be really easy from what I can tell. I had it set up and it is just great.

Support:
N/A

Overall:
I do not expect to get another guitar unless this thing just gets destroyed and I can't get it fixed. Well, unless I become a professional musician, then I might. But for an acoustic electric it is simple to use and sounds good amped or unpluged.

"Traditional Musicians Will Love This Guitar!"

Feature:
Has a good onboard tuner that is ideal for a quick pre performance tune up or if a string sounds strange. A check with a Korg tuner after setting up with the onboard showed the guitar was right on concert pitch. The pickups are crisp and clean and although I have only used a small (30W) amp, there is no distortion evident.

Quality:
This guitar looks fabulous. (I have the Asian "Dao" wood body) High gloss body looks inches thick, gold machine heads give a bit of glitter. It is an acoustic, and glamour only goes so far but it looks workmanlike and seems to be well fitted together, with no obvious blemishes or poor fittings.

Value:
Probably a little more expensive than I would have thought for a Fender acoustic, but not outrageous. I forget the price when playing it.

Desirability:
A good solid workmanlike guitar for the enthusiastic amateur or occasional performer. Nice looker without being a "stand out".

Sound:
I flatpick traditional country, folk and church music. I set this guitar up with light strings for unplugged performances, and it sounds great! Good projection and presence although it might suffer in a large hall.

Ease of Use:
Didn't like the action with the stock strings, but plays easily with Martin Lights installed.

Support:
Haven't needed support, so no opinion here.

Overall:
Barring accidents, I anticipate keeping this guitar for some years to come. Spruce top will improve with age, and nothing looks fragile enough to break without warning.
