Fingers quite well right out of the box (need to lower the action though) I'm impressed at how well she can whisper and boom as you will. The neck is a breeze for cording and the picking is true and will punch as much as you like without bottoming out. My top is two shades. It does not match on both sides ☹. Giving it an aged appearance. I got this for playing, not for looking at though. I'm keeping her! The tone is very pleasing and every acoustic guitar has its own accent. I love the tone of this one. She has been on my lap for an hour or so now and we are in love. If you are thinking of dating one of her sisters I would recommend that. But this one is MINE!
