UTILIZATION

Surprisingly fun to play, a major motivation for the purchase of this folk, and pretty well set at the factory handle, the action is low. Agreements and other riffs keep coming easily and thumb managed to quickly put on the E string for certain types of games rather blues. The shape recalls the blues guitar 50s so not too low (whatever ...) but pleasant harmonies med / high, with good string sound is stunning for the range of this model, and you Nanoweb Custom elixir es tranquill 4 months 6 see .... The sound is pretty kool, I've used in the studio, pop folk, soul, reggae, indie, it was unanimous.

SOUNDS

I find it quite versatile and lightweight, can compensate for the "lack of bass" thanks to the preamp if you play amplified with AER not need .... 't have a sound sick, and I also Plugge in my fender junior and there there was very pleasant grain for blues game. Think there rose butcher if you play on stage the feedback can be violent.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 years soon bought in 2009, and I 've tried a bunch in this price range less than 500EUR, I hesitated with the Taylor Big Baby, and a Lag Tramontane, I absolutely do not regret my final choir, the evidence I always use ...

More ... handle, lightness, its effectiveness in the studio, do not hesitate on good strings you will be amazed., The action is low.

Less, the effect a little plastic box that's actually a little spooky at first, but which is in fact the matte coating of the beast. Little miss sometimes low but this is not what I asked, there are bassists for!

I remake this choice with his eyes closed, I keep it, it is by far a great guitar for its price.

Remember that this is a mid-range folk, it is not in the Martin, Taylor, or Maton .....
