What We Think

This was my first high end guitar I ever owned, it's been with me through years of gigs and jams. The Maple is bright and the body shape provides a lot of focus for this guitar. I found it great for singing and strumming, and in a group setting it cuts through the mud to be heard regardless if you are playing chords, textures, or melody lines.

This guitar served me well and I hope it provides the same enjoyment to you!
