Sound

About as good as it gets without hitting four figures.
The sound and timbre is sweet with deep rolling bass and crisp high end trebles. Very dynamic range and plenty of sustain. My favourite guitar for recording. I wouldn't change it not even for a Ramirez (well let's say a R1...)
More volume than many dreadnought I played and that sadly includes my Seagull.
Action, Fit, & Finish

The finish is impeccable and puts the various modern Alhambras... (guitars that otherwise I quite like) to shame. A real classical instrument.
Superb rosewood side and bookmatched back.
