Good Points

Convenient, small body, with loud, ringing tone.
Well matched woods. Very playable.


Bad Points

Dry looking, matt finish, that does not resist scratches well.
Fairly dull looks overall.


General Comments

This is a folk, steel strung acoustic. By folk they mean shaped like a classical guitar, but structured as a steel string. It's a 21 fretter, joining neck to body at the 14th fret.
The woods are solid cedar top, with laminated, wild cherry, back and sides. These work well together sonically and aesthetically. They call the finish satin but in reality it is matt.
It has a mahogany neck, which has a 24.85 inch scale, slim and comfortable, with rosewood fretboard and bridge. All is plain and functional, just like the un-named machineheads.
A good fingerpickers guitar.
No expense on it's looks, but tonally it punches above it's weight.
Try one, you may be surprised.
