"A LONG TIME LOVE AFFAIR"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I will most likely keep this guitar a long time, I have already had it over 7 years. I have looked at others Taylors, Larivees , Martins,Godins, and others, however with the prices and with the playability and style and shape of this guitar the next guitar in this style would have to be pretty special
Sound
Great guitar for recording. Cut away gives ease of access for top notes which come off both clean and expressive. As an accoustic guitar the enlarged sound hole compensates for the thin body of the guitar, however do not expect a dreadnaught sound as after all this is not the intent of the instrument.
Features
The guitar has a an equalizer that works very well in consideration of the price point. A built in tuner would have been a good idea.
Quality
In every way fit and finish are second to none. This is a great looking instrument and quality in the asembly is apparent. A great road guitar as it is quite a bit thinner than a regular accoustic guitar.
Value
Well worth the selling price . It plays beyond its relative worth.
Manufacturer Support
Never had to. No problems.
The Wow Factor
Very sexy looking instrument no question about it.
