Master Grade, or should I say Monster grade, all Koa dreadnought with Ebony fretboard and bridge and bone nut & saddle. I won't waste my time describing the appointments as they are readily available on the Magnum Opus website. I will tell you this guitar is almost to beautiful to play!

Exceptional, Orchestral, Triumphant! Magnum Opus is THE standard in my humble opinion and I shall use its rich tone to compare all other acoustics forthwith. Bravo MO! You are indeed deserving of your name.

Completely flawless from the inside out. Pure perfection!!! You must play one of these to understand firsthand. The most comfortable neck I've ever played in an acoustic. The inlay work is superior to anything I've ever witnessed. Kudos MO!
Reliability/Durability

Zero problems and sounds better every day. I have recorded and performed with it and can't imagine life without it now. Every time I take it out of the case a crowd gathers. When I walk off stage I'm always cornered with patrons asking - what are you playing?
Customer Support

Last week (to my astonishment), I received a parcel from Magnum Opus Guitar Company. Inside was a warm letter thanking me for my guitar acquisition (18 months ago) and a sincere inquiry as to the wear, condition and my overall satisfaction with the product. This also included a thoughtful questionnaire asking for my suggestions to improve their products and customer service. In the end, they kindly asked that I now share my thoughts with others via guitar forums such as this. Needless to say, I was completely taken aback by such a sincere follow-up in this day and age. MO has excelled in the lost art of Customer Service! And by the way, the box also included 3 sets of Elixir Nanowebs strings and a high-quality embroidered MO baseball cap.
Overall Rating

I love this guitar! It surpasses everything I've ever played!. I bought mine on the last day of the NAMM show after getting on both knees and begging. When you see a MO guitar the beauty is frightening. What's amazing is the play and sound as good as they look - and that's saying something!
