UTILIZATION
Comfortable handle and touch impecable. But I prefer the curve of an Ovation CC059.
Excellent ergonomics, which is perfect for small jigs. Lightly.
Access to appropriate acute thanks to the Pan-cut. The sound is okay for this price and quality.
The electro sound is very decent (preamp Shadow 5-band), easily adjustable. Phase inverter, + a switch that acts on the EQ but I do not see too much interest.
SOUNDS
Perfect for my style (fingerstyle, picking, blues). I use a Fishman amp Soloamp and I am very happy with the sound reproduction. The preamp is very clean (low noise)
OVERALL OPINION
Used for 2 weeks without respite. However, I did make an adjustment of the action by my luthier and replaced the strings of origins. Small flat, the string spacing at bridge to need an adjustment because the strings Mi tended to "go out" of the handle. The bridge seems to be cut too generously. It took my luthier, creating small dents on the bridge saddle to guide the strings and thus closer to each other. Once set, everything is nickel.
I remake this classic choice for this guitar suits me very well. Its handle 48mm at nut with a slightly domed button is quite what I was looking for. Traditional classics to handle 51/52mm, flat button, 12 boxes of non-cash are much less comfortable I get.
Other models ds other brands have the same specifications but are much more expensive ...
