it is full of sustain, and clear and articulate. I play fingerstyle and do singer-songwriter type stuff the thing is great. I especially like the fact that you do not have to work at playing the thing.

his workmanship is excellent no extra glue joints are completely tight. Wood matching and selection is second to none. Frets were highly polished and leveled, one of the best fret jobs i have seen.

i have been playing the thing for more than a month and take it from cold to warm to dry to humid and is strung with med guage strings, the top has not moved and just seems to be getting better and better. I don't like the gotoh tuners, they seem to be sloppy but otherwise it rocks

No Opinion
It is acoustic so not noisy, the thing is an absolute cannon. I have played virtually every acoustic out there and this thing will stop em all. It is brilliant and articulate, takes hardly any effort to make it spring to life, can be subtle or in your face and it will not stop.
