Once again, nice job by zzounds getting this out quickly. I ordered the guitar on a Wednesday and by Thursday morning it was on my doorstep. First off, I was totally blown away by the finish, absolutely fantastic. Solid top, solid sides, solid back, and even though it's made in China, it feels like a quality guitar plus a hard shell case I am glad I made the decision to buy. Probably the best thing about this guitar is the neck. The feel is so comfortable, it feels close to an electric neck, I never expected that. Now about the sound, lets consider that its a $500, at this price point, it's fantastic, the lows are particularly bright. If you are a finger picker, no need to use a thumb pick. If I had to find a gripe about the sound, I would have to say it lacked a bit in the mid range but really not that noticable. Now don't expect the sound quality of a $2,000 guitar, be realistic, it is however a marvelous sounding guitar and a great upgrade from that $199 acoustic or would make a good spare guitar. Seems to be one of the better kept guitar secrets out there as I don't see too may reviews on this axe, give it a try you won't be disappointed.
