This is a Japanese Version of an Ibanez Acoustic. 21 Frets, Solid Top.
This has a rosewood Fredboard, Maple front and back. its an acoustic how can i rate the features, its a piece of wood with string, no pick ups nothing electric just pure Acoustic. A bit smaller guitar body then the regular guitar
Sound

I play a lot of rock/blues/Bluegrass/Folk. And this guitar has this unique sound and an easy to play guitar. I compared this with my Guild D16m, even though the vibes dont last as long as it, when i hit hard on the chord it doesnt make a rough note, it just plays as is. For the size of body and price it sounds exceptionally well.

Well this varies for the person, I personally love the large round neck on the guitar because you can grip it with your palm and play the chords without a sweat, it all comes into place. I had to replace the tuners because they were really stiff, my friend had the same guitar and he had the same problem but after I replaced it ran extremely well/

This guitar can take a lot of beating, I beat up my brother with this and there was no dents. The back of the Neck though is a bit soft, so i would lay it down and it would put a small curve in the back.

Cmon, ive never seen a guitar with that great of a sound for 200$ It can easily be in competition with a Gibson 500-750$ guitar. I love the sound too, it hums :D
