    Caractriques:

    - Cash back round in lycrachord (XP repurchased patent)
    - Handle al 20 boxes rather fine and very fast
    - Prampli 3 band over a volume knob.

    Irreproachable workmanship, better than my Takamine!

    USE

    Handle end and fast guitar pluttlgre, access to acute is a breeze. the action is low rgl by me thus making barrs easily. The guitar does not frieze, the frets are well finished.
    RAS, the price-quality ratio is incredible!
    Note that it ended much better than my 340 Takamine Eg I pay 380 euros and frieze as hell because of bad quality frets.
    On xp, you can play solo until the Last box without problem ...

    SONORITS

    The sound is already full acoustic Russianness then a branch once what a slap! It's round and deep with great warmth and crystalline highs. Objectively, it is better than Ovation Applause 450 euros which in any fawn out of the same factory ...
    Compared my Takamine, Xp is ten times better. And yes, you do not pay the brand ... The sound is better dfini, critallin more and more powerful. In short sonority much more frank!

    NOTICE GLOBAL

    In fact it is a free Ovation brand o less chre prices and better finish (the table is superb and the prampli gonna cum while respecting the acoustic timbre).
    This is a very good guitar for a very drisoire price (240 euros new, I think), I have twenty years of guitar behind me and really I find the quality report took Hallucinating!
    Warning, it sounds very much!

    Probably made in Korea;
    20 frets, a micro pizo under the bridge (with the indoor of the case);
    3-band graphic equalizer EQ-505 with a volume knob;
    Channel stocky, rosewood fingerboard, Saddle flam table.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is not very fast, does not slide too, but is thin enough, it was a comfort to play if the action of the strings is not too high.
    The agus is easy thanks to the cutaway ACCS.

    SOUNDS

    Thanks to the 3-band equalizer can be approached a variety of sounds, the guitar is versatile trs! ca n'gale not a good sound of applause: the bass and are very low mdiums Submitted.
    rgler can not shine on this guitar bad, because my taste there too.

    Mdiator an attack with a little boost in the treble when the guitar is plugged into the mixer can break down all the hair of your cat at once!
    In gnral: beware of Feedback ...
    No branch, the guitar sounds great, the sound mdiator heavy mtallique in arpges a well rounded and deep.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use the guitar for a year and wheelbarrows, I enmene everywhere!
    By car, train, plane, the beach, at the stage at the Feast of mankind, has all my accessories ... She always made me honor!
    A cord of pte in one year, and yet I scratch hard ...
    There's no saying it's solid, good performance agreements, comfort MODR BMOL one: the shape of the body TRS realize that difficult the game up. But what style!
    A report quality cost effective price for a good beginners guitar, travel or lugging around. what the price was not afraid of breaking, and all fawn, it's solid!

    I have nothing to add

    UTILIZATION

    Same as above
    I must reinforce the fact that the guitar is played very badly standing. I've had a year and I intend to play instruments for the part of a play, we'll see if it will go. It tends to drag quad is played standing up. It inconfoertable.

    SOUNDS

    It is true that the sound is very good. I use string acoustic Martin.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's a good guitar for beginners. It is to take it everywhere. But this is not an Ovation.

    See more advice.

    I have the sunburst model. Pretty face, I enjoy watching it.

    The truss rod makes me fairly confident, I hacked a bit but the action is fairly high. My other guitar also has a high action so it does not bother me, it's muscle, and like that when I play on it will power the fingers in the nose; D

    UTILIZATION

    I find the shape of the guitar very comfortable. The shape of the guitar, Ovation style, because it has sharp edges. I play sit and I sometimes have a sore shoulder after a while (it depends on my position, but sometimes after 10 minutes) and I think the guitar is there for something. If I play topless with her cut my circulation and leaves a mark on his …

If I play topless with her cut my circulation and leaves a mark on his arm, not cool.

    I have another acoustic guitar with a body larger but smaller and have never had this problem with it. I am 1m85.

    Nothing to say on the handle, it is correct.

    SOUNDS

    Not much to say, I am not able to judge, being a novice.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I play this guitar daily for 3 months. A friend loaned me. I've mostly strumming, rhythm guitar to accompany me on vocals. I am a beginner and this is the first folk guitar that went into my hands, after five years of classical guitar in my youth.

    Likes:
    the look (not be too good looking finish on it is the entry level, but by far it makes good)
    The cutaway
    the possibility to amplify

    I like least:
    when it hurts!

    I do not know if I would advise to buy. It can make a good guitar "Deco" or to haul and to appeal to girls, especially as she is beautiful and should be strong enough with his plastic shell, but it's still the entry level. Must see the price at which it can be.

    For me it dropped at the right time, I could make my debut, but I do not think I'll buy a guitar like this, unless you have a very good price. And even, even buy an instrument, as buying something that holds water and invest in brands "recognized", which are proven and have a tradition.

    My buddy bought it online and on a whim because he wanted to get on the guitar but never played with, so I was able to recover it.

    I may come back in some time to change my feedback, I must say that I'm pretty demanding in nature and I do not know anything, my judgments may be (too) severe.

    In conclusion, I like it this guitar and I enjoy playing with, but I think it comes more from playing the guitar as the instrument itself.

    Plastic back. Mine is in perfect condition but I saw some blistered ones at a store! (as if they had pox!). So watch out when you pick one.

    Pro: It looks really sexy! My bandmates couldn't believe its price! It looks great onstage!

    It comes with a truss rod key.

    The machine heads are very bad and the guitar doesn't stay in tune.

    UTILIZATION

    I immediately noticed that the string action is too high, making the guitar difficult and tiresome to play. I don't recommend it to a beginner because he will be disheartened really fast.

    UTILIZATION

    I immediately noticed that the string action is too high, making the guitar difficult and tiresome to play. I don't recommend it to a beginner because he will be disheartened really fast.

    I play it with a capo (I'm lucky because my singer has a very high voice) to shorten the neck and get a lower string action.

    I also adjusted the truss rod and the action is lower (but the neck is now convex).

    As already mentioned below, avoid playing it while standing. I added a strap pin to the neck heel and it's better now.

    The neck is slim, access to the upper frets is good.

    SOUNDS

    Played unplugged, the guitar sounds good (although the output level is not very high). The plugged sound is also good.

    The EQ is quite effective but it soaks a lot of battery power even when the guitar is not plugged.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I give it 8/10 because of the good value for money.

    I bought it as an additional guitar (I play a Fender Telecaster and a Gibson The Paul with a Marshall amp) to play acoustic songs and play along with my friends on summer evenings.

    Don't buy it if you're looking for a guitar to learn how to play! You'll cry with the first bar chords!

    I use it very occasionally and only in case I want to look good with a nice guitar

    But I wouldn't play a 15-song set list with it!

    Update: I will try to find a better acoustic guitar because this one is really awful to play ;) So, if you want a nice-looking instrument as eye catcher in your bedroom, it's a cheap solution. But if you are serious about playing the guitar, forget about it and look at Cort, Lag or Yamaha models.
