A full sized nylon string electric guitar with a spruce top and laminated mahogany sides and back. The guitar is loaded with features including a cutaway, built-in electronics (including a tuner), and has a very smooth neck with a 1 7/8 inch nut. It's made in China.
I've been keeping an idea on the Chinese guitars and waiting for the moment when china does what Japan did--develop a superb guitar. This is the guitar.

Acoustically this guitar has nice projection, a bright tone, and perfect intonation. Powered up, this guitar sings with the best of them. It surprised me to no end.
Action, Fit, & Finish

This gutar was perfect out-of-the-box. The set up is on the money, the fit and finish are superb, and the rosette is a beautiful blue/green made up of what looks like abalone--very nice.
Reliability/Durability

I've been playing this guitar, hard, for about six months. I practice with it, I perform with it, I've recorded with it--it does it all well and steadily. I've found no weaknesses in this instrument.

Don't know and don't care. I believe that what we see is what we get. I saw this as a marvelous guitar and it has remailed so in my eyes and hands.
Overall Rating

No Opinion
I've been playing for about 40 years. For the past five years I've either owned or played 40 mylon string electric guitars--looking for my ideal instrument. My favorite guitar is my Takamine Santa Fe and the Sunlit compares, favorable.
The only thing I don't like about the Sunlite is the headstock. The guitar as a whole is quite beautiful, but the headstock is as dull as dirt. It needs to be rounded off and instead having the name on the headstock there should be a sunlight logo of the same material used in the rosette. Then it would be just about perfect.
