Well this showed up sitting in my drive way. I kinda forgot I bought it :/
It was so cheap it feels like I owned it my whole life. So why buy another cheap acoustic? Well it does have a few unique features and a distinctive look.
Ran into it on a facebook ad before Christmas and I loved the ash top. So I checked out the reviews and there was talk that this had a unfilled grain thin finish. And a few people that seemed knowledgable though it might be a solid top. The guitar had lots of positive reviews especially about the tone.
So I've been playing it and it has a nice light bright airy tone. It plays well. The frets seem very even and the nut seems very well done. I think it needs some bottom shaved off the bridge to help upper fret action but it's very playable. The fret edges are sharp but they dont stick out enough to matter. I should just file the edges off but if it hydrates some it may not even matter.
Maybe I'm fooling myself because I love the look but I think this might be a decent guitar. Or maybe er the trade off is it's so light and delicate and unfinished it will self destruct in a year from improper drying?
