Sound: Not bad out of the box. With a Bill Lawrence L-500 replacement pickup - an easy drop-in retrofit in the neck position, the sound becomes outstanding. Acoustically, it's a bit thin for a jazz archtop but not bad. Best with nice fat strings. Anything less than 13's, the sound is gone. Try Thomastic Infeld Be-Bops. Feature: Features? Comes stock with a neck, strings, pickups, pick guard, frets, front, top and sides. Also a headpiece and tailpiece. The controls also have knobs. All standard equipment!! Quality: Is there an 11? Outstanding. Couldn't ask for a more beautifully made instrument. A Price tag of $5000 with a USA-made label would not seem unreasonable. Value: Another 11. These Koreans really know how to make a fine instrument. Hell, they make more than anyone else on earth. Samick makes Epiphones, Washburns, and countless other brands, If it says "made in Korea", it is 90% certain it was made by Samick. Manufacturer Support: I needed to replace a pickup ring (my bad). Called them, and they sent me one free. I had it in three days. The Wow Factor: Unfortunately, despite all its great attributes, this is not a guitar to feed the ego. It is attracive and wonderful to play, but if you want "sex appeal", you'll have to break the piggy bank and blow some serious bread on something like a Gibson L5. You won't find this guitar on the cover of any jazz albums though it certainly deserves this distinction. A superb but modest instrument. Overall: Has everything going for it except panache. and that doesn't bother me. I wasn't 100% thrilled with the pickups but they may be just fine for someone else. I like a little more highs. (The old Gretsch Filter-Trons are my favorites,)
