Amazing Value

Feels and sounds amazing for the price. A really good budget guitar that holds quite easy and feels very sturdy. The only slight downside if I am being really picky is that the bridge does feel a bit cheap but seems to be lasting and able to take a few knocks while also being extremely lightweight.

Would definitely recommend.

Great quality price product

It is very hard to find an acoutic guitar with eq at this price!

Back and sides are wood! (mahogany) and this is great.

Obviously you need to put better strings, and setup it better but the final result is vey good.

They need to improve the quality of the soundhole decoration,

there is a very thin lacquer on it and it easily goes off.
