Feature:
I immediately plugged this in and worked the Fishman electronics. Not to disappoint the guitar displayed uncharacteristically good tone for a low-end model. It was warm, bright and all points in between. I laid down a few tracks with it on my Tascam system and played it back. I clearly had the quality of sound found on guitars 2 to 3 times it's price. I will continue to record additional songs with this guitar, as well as my more expensive Takamine and let you know how it goes. So far, well worth the value.
Quality:
The quality is also surprisingly good and the construction seems to lend itself to durablity, comfort and design. I ordered the gloss black finish and it's really sharp looking....again, as nice looking and playing as models 2-3 times it's price range. I don't see a problem with bringing this onto stage and plan to do so. So far I've found nothing to moan about.
Value:
In short, the value of this model is high and well worth the price I paid for it. I may order a second one just to have around.
Desirability:
Anyone who has played guitar awhile will appreciate the appeal of a nice sounding, better playing acoustic. You would be compelled to buy this model were you to pick it up in a store and play it. It makes for a practical and enjoyable addition to my current lineup of guitars.
Sound:
After playing this model in a pawn shop and enjoying it's action and sound, I ordered & just received this guitar last week. True to my first experience, this model did not let me down. The sound was crips and clean right out of the box. When I plugged it in and adjusted it's electronics, I continued to be impressed by it's range of sound.
Ease of Use:
I played this at a pawn shop and immiately was drawn to the low action...something we all want in a nice acoustic. I was surprised at how well it played and was hoping the new model I ordered and received would have that consistency. No disappointment there--it plays very nicely.
Support:
Prior to buying this guitar I inquired with the phone operator about the consistency of the action on this model. He assured me the action was good and even went out of his way to get a second opinion. With two endorsements I ordered and played this guitar right out of the box. Yep, action was and is good.
Overall:
Overall I will give this guitar high marks...not at the top but close enough. It's proven itself immeasurably in just under a weeks time. I am satisfied with the $$ I invested and wouldn't hesitate to buy another of this same model if I wanted. I really enjoy the high gloss black finish on this puppy, the sound and the feel of the neck. It suits me fine.
