    I use this guitar for finger picking - but it sounds better being strummed.

    The guitar is, I am pretty sure, all laminate. It's quite heavy. But it has a fine, solid, feel to it.

    Mine is not the black model, but the natural wood one. Looks great. Especially the bridge.

    Specifications: (my measurements)
    Nut width: 1 3/4 inch
    Fret radius: 7.25 inch
    Radius of (what appears to be the) original saddle: 9.5 inches
