Feature:
Comes with a gig bag. As others have said elsewhere, it would have been nice to have the Gibson acoustic logo on the gig bag.

Quality:
There were a couple of little blemishes in the finish, but I guess that's part of the rough, plain look they are shooting for. Other than that, and the fret thing mentioned above, seems real good.

Value:
I think it's a great deal. If not for the hounddog, I don't think I could have bought a dobro. Glad to have it.

Desirability:
It's not super fancy, but it looks nice hung up on my wall. I dig it.

Sound:
I played the 1800 dollar Gibsons, and I played some lower end Fenders. This one fell right in the zone of being a)affordable and b) decent sounding. I am not saying it's the best dobro in the world, but the sound is good and the price is right. If you are a guitar player looking for a different sound, this is a nice way to get it. It sounds great plugged in, too. I run it through digital delay, chorus, and flanger. Nice git-box!

Support:
n/a

Overall:
It is what it tries to be, if that makes any sense. I am satisfied with it.
