Sound: Weak and twangy. Sounds like the inside is stuffed with cotton on the bass end. Not a good sounding guitar. The only nice this is exceptional harmonics, which really don't do you alot of good considering the rest of the sound. Feature: Came with a nice case and superb Fishman electronics with built in tuner. Ease of Use: The neck was warped on this guitar beyond what a normal setup can repair. 4 frets on the low E string were completely unplayable out of the box. A and D strings were almost as bad. Said was set up in America by tech # 19. I think tech # 19 should have at least woke up for a minute and looked at this guitar. If he/she would have, it wouldn't have made it out the door. Quality: This guitar is the equivalent of a sub $100 guitar as far a workmanship is concerned. The nut was off center. The side of the nut and neck had glue smeared on it with dirt in it. The finish had blemishes from the factory. Value: Waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy overpriced for the quality and sound you get. Manufacturer Support: Don't know. Didn't bother to contact them. Why should I when they're shipping out garbage like this? Sending the guitar back. The Wow Factor: It looks nice, but I didn't buy it for display only. Overall: I was very excited about getting this guitar. I own a 2005 Schecter C-1 Classic and a 2008 Hellraiser C-1 FR and love both of them. They are both made in Korea and have fine craftsmanship, sound and they play great. This Royal acoustic is made in China and it shows. Hope this isn't the future of a good guitar company.

Overall: Awesome guitar for price! Loved the tone and the electronics. I have an Epiphone Masterbuilt and it doesnt even come close to this guitar. Crisp and clear sound on all frequencies. The notch filter can dial in the exact tone you need for your style.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

In fact, zZounds offers free two-day delivery on many of our best-selling products!

4. We make returns super easy

You have 30 days to try your gear at home, in your practice space or studio. If you're not absolutely in love with the sound you're getting, just let us know. We'll promptly arrange for an exchange or a refund without the hassles or hidden charges you face with some of our competitors. If there's something wrong with the gear you bought from us, we'll email you an electronic return label so you can return it easily and free of charge.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
