This was my first guitar and I still love it.
I've been playing off and on (mostly off) for 15 years. I would never sell it. Not only because of nostalgia but because it's basically a great beginner's guitar. There are a lot of dents in the top and the side, and I'm not sure what kind of veneer they use but I've yet to see bare wood (I mean, 1-2mm deep dents).
I bought it from the local music store and they included a hard case.
Still in love with it.
Someone mentioned fret buzz, especially on the E string. Yeah, that's a problem but I think I fixed it by adjusting the neck tension, by letting it off ever so slightly.
A proper set up from your local music store might help.
