A couple of years old maybe, unsure. Laminated spruce top, Looks like lam. mahogany family. Standard dreadnaught body rosewood bridge and fingerboard. Genereic chrome tuners that work well. One broken from a drop. No electronics. Black bindings.
Sound

I play fingerstyle and this guitar is suited to it just fine. It also strums well. For an inexpensive guitar it performs quite well in this category. Without loking I thought it was a solid top from the sound.
Action, Fit, & Finish

Guitar was in need of repair(from a drop) when I received it. had to replace a 2 tuners and reset the nut. quality of the materials was good though. Dents aside, this guitar appears to be well built, no seam seperation. everything is solid.
Reliability/Durability

I think equipped with an internal pickup this guitar could withstand moderate gigs. Not loud enough for a mic though. Haven't had it long enough to really know about durability, other than after the drop it is still repairable.

I have a lowden, norman, Cats eye's, Garrison, and Martin. I've played them all, cheap to top of the line. I'm not sure what these guitars sell for new, but I would recommend this guitar to any beginner guitarists out there. well built, good fit, accurate scale, and a good sound most of all. Nice looking too...
