It was made somewhere over in Asia I believe. Possibly Japan.
It has 20 frets. The wood is very nice and does not scratch easy. It has a nice pickguard with a bird on it. I believe it's a Gibson Dove copy. They did a nice job.

The sound is very clear. For a no-name brand, this guitar is very nice. Probably the best acoustic I have ever played.

Everything is nice. A very above-average acoustic guitar. I wish I had another just like it. Fairly easy to play. It was setup rather nicely. One of the tuning pegs was loose, but I believe that is because of the previous owner.

The wood is durable and so is the construction of the guitar itself. I feel comfortable taking it out of it's case and carrying it around. Very dependable. The tuners are loose, but I am not sure if that is the guitar's fault.

I have been playing for 2 years, and this guitar is my favourite acoustic. In fact I got rid of my Dean acoustic after I picked this beauty up. If it were stolen or lost, I doubt I'd be able to replace it, but if I could, I sure as hell would. The sound is beautiful, possibly the best aspect (of many great aspects) of this acoustic guitar.

Tuners are terrible. Good piece to screw around with. I would feel more comfortable playing it if I replaced the tuning machines.

This is a great looking and decent sounding piece, especially at this price. I do not regret buying it.
