Sound: I really enjoy the rich tones that this guitar produces! The size and shape fits me perfectly--it is much easier for me to chord on this one, as the neck is the perfect length for me. I haven't tried it plugged in yet, but as most of my playing is acoustic, it's perfect! Feature: It came with a patch chord, an extra peg, etc. I haven't really used any of the extra accessories yet. I really am quite satisfied with it as it is, so it's hard to more specific as to what I would like different. Ease of Use: I find this instrument to be quite user-friendly, the action is just right, the manual has fairly clear instructions, it's easy to tune and hook up. I have yet to modify it to my "personal taste", but at face value, it already satisfies my personal taste. Quality: The only think I can think of that might be improved upon a little is adjusting the bridge or something...every once in a while, it will sort of buzz when being chorded. But it's not highly noticeable, so for me, it's not a big deal. Value: Yes! Manufacturer Support: When I submitted a lower-priced product from another site, I was immediately contacted by someone who was very pleasant, professional, and friendly. I was very impressed. I have not had cause to use the warranty yet, only the lowest price guarantee. The Wow Factor: It's gorgeous! I love the natural grain of the wood, not covered, but enhanced by showing it off to the world in a lovely finish! Overall: I expect this to last me for a few decades, at least! If this product were stolen or completely destroyed somehow, I might look for a replacement. I looked over many user reviews before purchasing this product, and I don't feel as though anything was different from what was reflected in the reviews. As far as what I like least about it, the only thing I could think of was that the smell of the finish was sort of strong when I pulled it out of the box the first time. Love this guitar overall!

Sound: Warm, Translucent, lifelike acoustic sound through PA system Feature: B-Band Pick up Quality: If it had better and/or locking machine heads It would have been perfect. This is the only guitar I own under $3,000. I played it, took it to a gig to compare with my Taylor 710 and Gibson Songwriter. It was different but incredibly beautiful sounding. I gig 4 to 7 days a week in high end professional settings. This guitar is now a staple at my gigs Manufacturer Support: This is an unknown

Sound: Too warm. When I play with my jam group unplugged, everyone has to ease off to even hear when I take a turn. Very disappointing. Feature: The zebrawood is awesome and gets raves from everyone who sees it for the first time. I love the XLR and regular guitar plugs built in. Also the easy access battery compartment is super. My Larrivee that cost about 4x as much requires all the strings be loosened to get inside the guitar to change out the battery -- with ONE hand! :( Ease of Use: Average playability. Setup could've been lower, but acceptable. Plugged in the sound is below what I had expected. Quality: This is a beautiful guitar and feels well made. Feels good in my hands. Seems tough enough to take a little punishment without too much damage. Value: It is worth the money if you want a warm, low end guitar to practice with or for a beginner. Manufacturer Support: N/A Overall: I will replace it as soon as possible.

Sound: Extremely warm. The higher strings sound much better, the lower strings are quite uninspiring to me, really thuddy. Feature: The XLR output is a really cool feature. The onboard tuner is always handy. Ease of Use: My action wasn't the greatest, I'd prefer a little lower. It's pretty far from my ideal sound, even with my favorite strings. Quality: The pickup brought a little bit of trouble, but it was a quick fix. Otherwise a very well built instrument. Value: I'd say it's a decent value, although I personally wish I'd saved up a little bit more for an Ovation. Manufacturer Support: N/A The Wow Factor: Very amazing looking guitar. Overall: It didn't take long for the disappointments to come through. Like I said, the tone is very warm, and when it comes to playing unplugged I'd rather play my Mitchell that was half the price. I can't get a bright tone out of it; new strings sound like they've been on for 9 months after about a week. I wish it had a brighter tone.
