I've owned many instruments over the years and have played some expensive acoustics. This is by far the best I've ever owned. The playability far exceeded my expectations, tone is rich, warm and full and the electronics sound spectacular. Essentially, if you set everything flat, it sounds like the acoustics of the guitar only louder. I'm on the verge of converting to a Gibson brand loyalist. I just love this guitar!
