The other reviews cover this well.
Sound
:
10
I've played many single and twin humbucker models, trying to find something that has a rich jazz sound, but still is bright enough to keep things interesting.
This was one of the lower priced models tested, but it outperformed instruments at 2 or 3 times the price.
Action, Fit, & Finish
:

This is not much of a priority for me, all looks fine, action is quick and to my liking, no complaints.
Reliability/Durability
:
10
I just got it, I don't know yet, but I have ancient Aria instruments and they are all fine.

My luthier, Roger Thurman of Thurman Guitar in Kent Ohio takes care of everything for me, he fixes any problems so I have not contact with the manuf.
Overall Rating
:
No Opinion
Been playing for 45 years, many different styles, classical with voice, sax, classical training, now moving towards jazz.
This instrument was the best of the many guitars I tried, (hollowbody with twin or single humbuckers) but as you know each instrument must be judged on its own.
