Sound
:
8
I'm a professional musician that needed an extra (cheap) guitar for traveling so I play many kind of music and the guitar has the classic "acoustic" sound that's good for everything.
Sound is very "huge" (not a d28 obviously!) for a cheap guitar: bright (martin 012 strings) and rich of harmonics. Good volume unplugged.
The position of the right hand really make sound changing (playing bridge, hole or neck position).
The low E string is a bit poor but it's overall a good sound.
Action, Fit, & Finish
:

The action is good (only a buzz on the 2nd fret D string).
Electronics are quite good, no noise.
The finishes are very good, the guitar looks fantastic, the woods are ok.
Reliability/Durability

I've not yet played live.
The hardware seems pretty good.
The finishes are resistent.
I don't stricltly depend on it but i like to spend some time playng it.

If I loose it I think I'll rebuy it... Is a very nice instrument that can offer you very very much at fifth the price.
really awesome for 350 Euros used.
