I purchased this instrument as a replacement for my main guitar based on positive reviews. I have to say that the instrument surprised me very pleasantly. The guitar is beautiful to look at, but more importantly, the sound is nothing to be ashamed of, even compared to some more expensive instruments. The fingerboard and neck is very comfortable and fits beautifully in the hand. Chords are played naturally on it, without the need to overly squeeze and fight the frets like other guitars. The notes hold beautifully even in higher positions, which is also not always standard with cheaper variants. I only give a star down for the not very well made electronics, which don't sit exactly on the bracing and stick out, but that's just aesthetic. Overall, I have to recommend this guitar. If you want a decent instrument in the cheaper class, there is no way you will get burned with this instrument and you will be very pleasantly surprised.
