CW HG stands for Cut-a-way High Gloss... The cut-a-way gives nice access to the upper frets, and the highgloss lacquer finish is amazing. The solid spruce top and cherrywood sides give it a nice bright sound and I'm guessing the neck is cherrywood and it feels awesome! The tuners are just good tuners nothing special, the guitar kept in tune during an 11hr bus ride in -20C weather. The Fishman Prefix Pro pickup sounds really nice... I don't have an acoustic amp though...

I love it I love it I love it. Sustain for days, nice and bright good for Clapton, Allman Brothers, Dave Matthews, Bob Dylan, Neil Young and just about everything else. Sounds really nice in Drop D
Action, Fit, & Finish

Action is a bit high... but I like it that way. The guitar stayed in tune during a 11hr bus ride in -20C weather. It is perfect for me but some people don't like the action the way I like it.
Reliability/Durability

This guitar seems pretty tough, I play my guitars hard and I feel this one will last.
Customer Support

Limited Lifetime warranty... but the store I bought it from does really nice repairs so I'd get them to do it...
Overall Rating
:
9
I've been playing 6 years my other guitar was a 30 year old Korean acoustic and the neck is coming off it because its so warped beyond repair so this guitar is infinitly better than what I'm used to.
I got it on sale for 50% so I really lucked out and I don't know if I'd be able to afford it if it got stolen and I had to play full price but if I could I would get it again.
