"Absolutely Outstanding"
Been playing classical guitar professionally for many years. I have played so many, handmade, factory, etc. For once in life, I got the babe I have been seeking. This guitar is just magical. The basses are truly booming and the trembles are sweet as cake, perfectly balanced with precise intonation. I have owned customs for over 5k and bought this one for only 2K, what a steal. This is not a beginner or intermediate level guitar, it is professional. I've only had it about a year and the sound is only getting better (cedar top at that). I am not one to write reviews, but felt this is worthy of it. I will never, ever sell this guitar, it is my with me for life. If you may be considering this guitar, rest assured you made the best decision.

I've owned my cym75 for three months. I agree with previous reviewers that the finish could have been better. Overall, this is a great guitar worth every penny. The construction, look, feel, playability and sound are top drawer!

overall, acceptable, but disappointing, I almost sent it back, the rosewood back and side pores were not filled in properly during construction which caused the top finish to sink into the pores causing a cratering effect, this happens when the construction process is rushed, you will not see this on instruments created by a good luthier, but at $2000. sight unseen , you take this risk, quality luthiers will charge $5000 to $ 10000 for a good instrument... after talking with some luthiers about it , it was decided it wasn't such a bad thing, as long as it sounded good, which it does at that price point... heartbreaking, but that's the risk you take with an instrument purchased online...
