This is do to the strings just hitting the frets.
Action, Fit, & Finish
:

Action is LOW. Out of the box, it had fret buzz when strumed open i.e. no fingers on the fret board. There is an wrench included, but no instructions... I found on line several articles about how to adjust the truss rod. I have adjusted it all the way out and still get fret buzz, now just at fret 11-12.
Reliability/Durability
:
5
It does not hold tune very well, I have had to reune it every day for the last 5 weeks. So I would say it is not good for a live performance.
All else seems to be great

Purchased from Costco.
Returned first one to Costco, because I could not get rid of the fret buzz at all.

Would be good for live performance.
Incredible value.... plays as good as my expensive Ovations but with the traditional Dreadnought sound... Purchased quality hardshell case, as I want to ensure that the guitar is around for a long time.
Feel very fortunate to have stumbled across it in Costco

Own Ovations, Yamahas
If lost it would be hard to replace as looks like a limited run sold to Costco. No web search info available.
