"not worth it"

Overall: 1 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I expected much more and i didnt get it. it wasnt good sound quality and it is easily damaged. i wouldnt recommend it. I like other dean products, but this just wasn't for me
Sound
It sounds terrible plugged in. it is ok acoustic, but there is just so much buzzing. i didnt like it at all
Features
the tuner NEVER worked. also, the equalizers did not affect the sound (when plugged in).
Ease of Use
it is hard to get a good sound. i also own a Ibanez V70CE Acoustic-Electric Guitar and it works much better, it was less expensive too.
Quality
mine had a few scratches on it. if i wanted to use this outside of practicing, i wouldn't really be able too. the only thing i can use it for is to practice
Value
almost every other guitar i have played was a better value than this.
Manufacturer Support
I think that the support was ok when i needed the output fixed but it ended up breaking again so it wasnt quality work
The Wow Factor
the guitar looks really nice, dont get me wrong, but beauty doesnt dominate sound

Musical Background:

active musician, i have A LOT of instruments
