I will keep this guitar, & if something happens to it, I'll go straight to the nearest silvertone dealer, & look for the same one again, & if what I find, Compares to the one I now have, I'll replace it ... I like everything about this little guitar, Although, The same thing in an all mahogany construction, Would make me drool !!!
Sound
I dont know if I just got my hands on a good one, Or if they're all this good, But this little bugger, Though it doesnt match the crisp full sound of my Taylor 410, But much as I hate to admit it, It has a better action, & is much easier to play, Especially when you consider the size of it, It just tucks right into your chest area beautifully ... I'm seriously considering putting the same L.R.Baggs pickup in it, That I have in my Taylor, & if it sounds as good plugged in, As it does on its own, I'll let it replace the Taylor as my work guitar ... (I originally bought it for camping & such) Needless to say, I love this guitar ... Ben ...
Features
The soft gig bag, Doesnt do this little guitar justice, I'd hate to have it dinged, Or damaged, Because of the lack of protection it offers, The only reason I visited this site, Is because I was looking for a hardcase for it ...
Ease of Use
Playability is its strongpoint, How it takes the Baggs pickup remains to be seen, The sound quality is more than you could ask for ...
Quality
No complaints here, I cant find an ugly place on it anywhere, Thats why I dont care for the gig bag, I'd kind of like to keep it that way !!!
Value
I paid $200 for mine, & very much feel, That I got my moneys worth ...
Manufacturer Support
Cant judge this area, I've had no dealings with silvertone, Other than just being very happy with their product ...
The Wow Factor
HAHAHAH, I'm a big man, & my friends tell me, I look silly playing what looks like a childs guitar, So I'm leaning toward the "practical addition" aspect ...
