USE

Very fine nylon handle for a very pleasant: mahogany neck / rosewood fingerboard
gloss of very beautiful invoice.

to recommend for allergic to conventional sleeves, wide and round, everything goes on the run, arpges, picking.

you can play for hours ..

pan shot enables a super easy access to acute

- In the form, the Mini-jumbo format is ideal, it is a kind half width box with a rose fairly trique..bien hold on the knee or strap (if we add the tether strap not supplied sleeve).
For sound, I was looking for a small nylon with with reduced cash because I was a fan of his slamming electroac Godin nylon ..
away from the budget this Last, CEC-1 is a great guitar, with good projection, Adi non branch, it said.
This is what made me jump as between his little sister chre least without the massive table and that the difference between the two is huge.

Once branch, the Fishman done its job with his strong, balanced (adjustable too ..) in short, a good quality preamp and not a gadget.

As proof, she selects t by a luthier (watch one speaks of a 500 guitar and not a work of art .. 3000!) And I'm not dcu .dropoff window

SONORITS

- Yes, absolutely, blues, bossa

- Amp: Troubadour and small Kustom Sienna for home, or on a sound repiqu

- Slightly less bright than the sound I was looking for (in godin mind), but rich and well dfini

- I find it perfect in an acoustic blues spirit, cedar table confre him a sweet softness and handle end allows some effects reservs up to the folk ..

NOTICE GLOBAL

1 year of use

-what I prefer: its look and finish, comfort, sound, price and reduces its size

- I do not like: no one has yet Vant on audiofanzine its quality; Paper and cardboard spcial size a bit to squeeze it into a rigid standard Case ..

- After 1 year: I envisaged to sell it for a minute, but did arrire..elle march has its place among the other guitars for a broad program.

excellent price quality ratio (almost 2 times most expensive that the stable massive san version, but it is diffrentes 2 guitars is day and night)
- Yes, so I cherch the same used to restructure the steel string guitar, before falling on taylor big baby ..

Everything has been said.
Format: mini jumbo slim, with a nice cutaway. Aesthetics original for nylon, and successful.
Species: massive cedar, mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, rosewood bridge. Gloss.
Wood marquetry rosette, simple but nice.
Fishman 4T preamp with integrated tuner.
Hybrid Shaft is THE feature of this guitar close to a folk format (45 mm at nut), round profile very comfortable with a slight radius, those allergic to conventional sleeves will be reconciled with the nylon. 14 Non-cash boxes.

Excellent quality of violin making, especially for the price. The woods are beautiful.

UTILIZATION

As I wrote earlier, the race is worth a look: much more accessible for people with allergies to traditional, pleasant and quick, easy access to the 22nd through the cutaway box.
The slim size of the box is very nice, it is one with the guitar. It is also very light.
Acoustics, proper projection despite the slim size, with a rather well-balanced in the mids.
Electro is even better: it sounds at once, the settings are simple and very effective, more shine and no feedback, it's really hellish ...

SOUNDS

The acoustic sound is well balanced and great bossa, it may lack a little brightness to the arpeggios and solos but his personality and I liked it that way. The projection is enough for work or play in miniature, a little beyond the limit.
Connected, even better, because the settings of the preamp to a proper customize and add shine and treble ... It's almost another guitar with all the fun sound of nylon strings without the hassle (for me) the handle off.
In fact it is surprising ease, the result electro DI box is connected with a stunning chouille reverb ...

OVERALL OPINION

In fact I tried out of curiosity 2 years ago (September 2006) ... And I was seduced by the price / performance ratio, very good: I left with as I also have a great Takamine (TC135 SC) not at all in the same price level. But they are very different in tone, I find the additional Cort. It's a very endearing little guitar for its size, aesthetics, ergonomics and sound that has a real personality as in electro acoustics. Since then she follows me everywhere ... For that price it's a very good deal, I can not find her fault. Just missing the case and as shown in the previous opinion, it's not easy to find given the unusual format: must be content with a cover.
I highly recommend to those who are tempted by the nylon but are put off by the ergonomics of the "real" classics.
In short yes, I would buy ...
