I wanted for a 3/4 size guitar that i could bash around practice and take with me wherever i go. So I tried a few around the local music shops i think one of which cost around 700 dollars(AU) but that kinda defeated my purpose for owning a 3/4 size. so i thought i would try the cheapest and work my way up. i found this little ashton and when i picked it up and played it, i was amazed at the sound quality and playability for this little $99 guitar (talked the owner down to $85) would recommend it to anyone seeking a portable practice guitar that will be easy to play and sound great.

Action, Fit, & Finish : 8
Very well designed little guitar that, in my opinion, is better sounding and easier to play than the more expensive three quarter guitars that i have tested, great response.

Reliability/Durability : 8
I have owned this little guitar now for almost 2 years. It has served me very well...and looks as good as it did the day i bought it
This guitar was made to last. there are no strap buttons, but they would be pointless on such a light guitar. i have had friends drop it countless times only to find that it didnt even effect it.

Customer Support : No Opinion
I have never needed to use the warrenty, get it repaired, or even polish it. I think i got a 3 year warrenty with it. but i seriously doubt that anyone would ever need to use it, even if there was a 5 year warrenty.

Overall Rating : 8
I have been playing for rougly 4-5 years.
If it was misplaced then i would definatly buy another.
I also own a Washburn acoustic-eletric dreadnought guitar
i do wish that it had an adjustable bridge, and a scratch plate.
but overall there is no better guitar, for those that are just starting out and want something that is portable, sounds good, lasts and easy to play.
