The 210 made in 2004. Dreadnought style. Sitka Spruce top, Sapele back and sides, Mahogany Neck, and Ebony Fretboard. Pearloid Dots and a Black Fiber binding. As far as I know these are Satin Finish only and no neck binding. Pretty straight forward no frills and no electronics.

This guitar is very good for finger style but sounds very good strummed as long as you don't lay into it. The neck feels like a Strat Neck because it is not as wide as a normal acoustic and does not have binding. I find this to be a plus as I love Strat necks. The neck is fast to say the least.
Likes: Fast, Great for Fingerstyle and picking, Here Comes the Sun and any song with a Capo sounds great.
Dislikes: Bassier songs aren't there best with this one. Not very forgiving when you over strum.

For the money I have to just say this guitar was perfect. I can't fault anything. This is the best value in a guitar I have ever owned.

I have only had this thing a couple of weeks but have taken it camping and lugged it around the house with very little concern. It will be an artifact very soon.

I'm 41 and been playing since I was about 14. I really bought this as a camping guitar but have hardly picked up my Strat since. I've been learning acoustic songs for camping like, Horse with no name, Here Comes the Son, I've seen Fire and I've seen Rain, Blackbird, Elderly Woman, and Damage Done. For the money and the fast neck I love the 210.
