I got this guitar last week, I really cannot put this down. I was worried about shipping being an expensive guitar but it looks like it was handled really well. I received it the next day after buying because zzounds is in New Jersey and I'm in pa. The guitar is gorgeous. Bass notes almost sounds as if played from a piano. I was originally planning on buying a Taylor 314ce but chose this because of the neck and tone. The neck is slim for an acoustic and makes it super easy to play for hours. I love this guitar. It plays just as well and sounds as good as the high end Martin and Taylor's I played. Couldn't be happier..
