This guitar is great! Keep in mind even though it seems set up out of the box; I still had a professional set up done and it made it even better. I also had a Fishman Matrix pickup installed and I can tell you this pickup through a Roland amp makes this guitar an awesome live instrument! A lot of folks think a quiet guitar will not play well live. It has to do with the pickup and amp. This guitar sounds incredible amplified. You will see what I mean when you perform with it. It doesn't have all that jangly tinny boomy extra noise that spruce top high dollar guitars have. The HOG wood keeps the sound tight and less boxy than other guitars. The size helps as well to manage the tone and noise when performing through an amp live. The Martin 000RS1 is good; but this 0015 is perfect. The good thing about the Martin 000 and 00 models is they sound less boxy live for whatever reason. I played a D28 for years and always had to tweak the PA settings before every show and was never happy with the mix. Not saying that the D28 is a bad instrument at all! These Martin 000 and 00 HOGS are plug in a play and just fit me better. No heavy bass or jangly over tones. I have tried the LR Baggs VTC in these Martin HOGS and prefer the Fishman Infinity Matrix tone. I don't know why. The Fishman just sounds better. Now in a good spruce top Breedlove I would go with LR Baggs.
