This guitar is the perfect rosewood acoustic. The tone of this instrument is amazing... Not to bright and not to bass boomy like the Martin hd28. Thus it's the perfect band situation guitar and the tone will carry on and heard out noticeably The neck is pretty thick and if you have small hands it could be uncomfortable

Musical Background:
