I was looking to get this guitar for a while once zZounds posted it on their website. I needed an acoustic and just fell in love with the looks and hoped it would play just as good as it looked. For the most part its incredible. The guitar weighs almost nothing. It's a super-thin body, to begin with. When you pick it up for the first time you may not take it seriously because I have socks that weigh more than this thing. The neck is incredible. It's much closer to your standard electric neck than to anything acoustic. The finish is impeccable. The electronics- well......... that's another story. The tuner is worthless and totally inaccurate. You could use it for on the spot tunes but after you strum one chord you will realize something is off. The intonation was spot on though. There are separate controls for your bass and treble sides which work AMAZINGLY WELL!! The tuners are comparable to something you'd use to pull up a medieval drawbridge. They are not all that smooth and creak and moan. The Action- well this is another point of contention. It's not bad, it's not good, it's not great..... I wouldn't send it back because its too high but I wouldn't write home about it either. Its like SRV would play. I'm going to try to adjust the neck and if that doesn't work Ill sand down the bridge and I think that will make it more playable.The Sound - OMG THIS GUITAR SOUNDS AMAZING!!! You would never think you could get a sound so full, so rich from a body so thin. I could talk all day about the tones that come out of it. NO ONE will be let down by the sound in this price range.Overall I would say that if you replaced the tuners and got the action to a point where you want it this will become your new Number 1. It's awesome and I would highly recommend it.
