This guitar is worth every penny of the purchase price, and then some. It sounds great, it plays easy, and the satin finish looks and feels amazing. The volume projects like crazy and the onboard electronics are a plus. This is by far the best acoustic in this price range I've ever picked up. It was my first guild but definitely won't be my last.
