Great sound, easy to play and beautiful

I use this guitar at home, but it could easily be used on stage as well.

The guitar comes in a solid case and is beautifully made. The build quality is superb and even when looking inside. The materials used are first class.

The guitar is very light and plays easily with low action and a big warm rich sound. The neck has a great feel helps with the playability. When kept at constant humidity the guitar stays in tune for a long time.

When plugged in the pickup system lets you adjust the sound even more but wthout diminishing the quality. I do mostly use it unplugged myself though.

This guitar will last me many many years.

Pros:

Quality

Sound

Feel

Playability

Cons:

None so far

I would buy this again, no question about it
