2000 model in vintage sunburst dreadnaught acoustic. Solid spruce top with laminated mahogany sides and back. Hard case included with purchase. Bought from MF as a refurb, but arrived in perfect condition. No construction or finish flaws at all!

I changed strings immediately to my preferred brand. Loud, clear tones. Stays in tune better than average for an acoustic. Replaced plastic saddle with bone, much improvement for $5.

Finish is gorgeous. I have not seen any Gibson J45's with a better finish. And this one was a refurb!
Reliability/Durability

Seems very well constructed. I expect to play for decades unless I cause damage to it somehow. As is typical on acoustics, I had to add the second strap button.

Bought it to carry on vacation etc without worrying about damage or theft to more expensive acoustics, but it has become my most played guitar. I would definitely recommend. Not a very common model for some reason. I see the 18s and 45s in stores everywhere, but they do not match the sound of the 28 in my opinion.
