bright crisp sound typically associated with a smaller body gtr - not much bass to speak of

Quite good at this price point! I tweaked the truss rod just a little bit, tuned it up and it's ready to go. I wasn't expecting too much, but I'm not at all disappointed. It plays clean, no fret wire sticking out, no buzzing anywhere, very nice

I just bought it to knock around the house or on the porch and leave my much nicer guitars in their cases except for gigs. I won't worry about the dog or kids messing this one up..

The Fret Store (you can find them online) ships these fast and packaged very well. Very satisfied with those guys.

I've been playing 20 yrs... often for a living. I have a Martin, 2 Larrivees, a Fender PBass, and a Rickenbacker bass and assorted amps. This guitar does what I need it too. This would make an excellent first time guitar for a student; or if you are an experienced player wanting something decent and playable to bang around the house for not much $$
