12 string

This is the go to guitar for playing in my church. The sound is great and set up was great out of the box. I have only changed the strings. Nothing else.

Love it!!

This came today and ROOTB it's impressive. I let it set for while to get to room temperature as the box was cold. Even with cheap strings it sounds great and the Fishman pickup system through my Roland AC-60 was even greater. Slender neck profile maked it easy to play. String height is perfect. I can't find any faults to this guitar. I'll change to better quality strings in a while, but might even play these out. It'sa a guitar well worth the omoney.

12 string with an attitude

Got the guitar in perfect condition, neck in superb shape, great play-ability, the tuners are superb, guitar barely detunes and I've didn't change the strings from factory ones to Ernie Balls. No need, great playing, superb sound, ... my inner songwriter is happy. :)

Good guitar if you want a 12 string

Good guitar, the tuner is handy. but I'd recommend getting a set of strings and swapping out the ones that come with. I found picking individual notes didn't feel right on the default strings.

Incredible 12!

This baby is so beautiful, and sounds so great!! Having a great build quality, this guitar produces a very dense sound at all frequencies and a pretty long sustain. It's enough loud with standard bridge pins and strings, so I can only imagine how its sound upgrades with brass pins and phosphor string set!!!

Amazing Guitar with small tweeks

after almost 6 months ......

wow what a guitar for the price, well packed this time, good quality. I have changed the Strings to Elixir Nanoweb Light 12 Str. Phosphor and pins to Brass pins from china, oh my god !!! sound is incredible... and excellent choice I made for the price. even real bone pins will do a good Job, But I Changed to brass pins, it vibs quite loud.

Awesome guitar

I use it mostly in my studio or jamming with my friends at parties.

My previous expreiences with cheap guitars show that cheap guitars have very large distance between strings and frets and they are very hard to play. This guitar is very nice to play and has excellent sound. Built-in tuner is also very good and jack output sound from pickup is also quite good.

Guitar body finishing is matte, I expected and prefer glossy body finishing

Excellent product

I bought this to be used for recording and maybe the odd jam

night. I have tried 12 strings before, and this easily holds its own with much more expensive models. The neck is straight,the on-board electrics are good. The frets have no sharp edges and are well dressed. An all round excellent guitar,would buy again. I've been playing guitars for the 30 years and have a lot of experience fixing and tweaking them, this needed nothing doing to it. Even the on-board eq and tuner was fine, no need for anything more elaborate.

Couldn't be happier with it.
