Sound
:

Suits a wide variety of musical styles. Blues, folk, alternative, country. Big Bass for a guitar so small. Great warm trebles, powerful full midrange. Big open sound. Good for finger-picking and strumming. Can strum hard and still sounds good. Very resonant, dark, mellow. with clear trebles. Sounds just as good as a Martin 0-28vs at more than half the price.

Set-up was good, could have more saddle showing in bridge. The interior could be a little cleaner. Some glue marks. Tuning pegs too tight and not as fluid as waverly's. Finish is nice.
Reliability/Durability

No Opinion
Would use at a gig without a back-up

No Opinion
Limited life-time warranty. Heard they will replace guitar with no questions asked if there are major problems. Like a cracked top or poorly set neck etc.
