It has standard classical dimensions, 52mm wide fingerboard and 650mm scale length, but the neck is lower profile and has an adjustable truss rod. This makes it nicer to play than my standard classical. The pickup and eq work well. The tuners are cheap and I had to superglue the knobs on mine to stop them from buzzing, but now they function ok. This guitar was set up well and I have made no adjustments. |

Best playability of any guitar I've ever owned. I've been playing for 33 years and have owned some nice guitars. |

Sounds great plugged in. The acoustic tone is good but it lacks some volume compared to my more expensive solid topped guitars. Not bad, but you get what you pay for. |

This thing is built like a tank. My other instruments stay in their cases, this one hangs on the wall so I can grab it and play it anytime. I have a gig bag for it. I loaned it to a teenager for 6 months so he could learn while his dad saved up to get him a guitar. It is heavy for a classical. |

This guitar is a lot of bang for the buck. But of course it is a student quality laminated guitar. The best laminated guitar on the market, I think, but still laminated. This is my camping guitar. I also keep it around in case I ever need to plug in. It is great plugged in. A friend of mine wants to buy it off me but I told him I'm keeping it. He can get a new one really cheap anyway. |

I bought this from a shop down in Dorchester, England, cant remember what it was called. It was £270, and its pretty good value. Its got a cut out, its classical and has an inbuilt pick up. THe oick up i think is EQ 7545

Dont try standing itup on its base because it will fall over because of the quite heavy pick up thing inside. Its got a control panel on the top, so you dont have to get up to adjust it. I dont play it plugged-in very often, so i dont know how long the battery lasts, but Ive had it since september and its still working. It has a really pretty thing round the hole (dunno what its called...) its shell like and twinkly... |

I used to have some sort of really old yamaha that i'd borrowed from an aunty, and the tone is not as nice as that one, its not very mellow/deep (i cant think of a good word)but it does depend on how youre playing it. Its not the easiest to play, but by no means hard. The strings are set quite high. There is a good difference between when youre playing by the bridge (pont) and when your not (tasto) |

Its pretty loud, louder than a lot of others. The cut out, ive discovered, is really handy and you should never buy a guitar again if it does not have a cut out! |

It needs re-tuning quite often, but if you were playing a short piece it would be fine. After 1 or 2 hours of playing it needs tuning but i dont know if this is normal..... |

I bought this one because I needed my own guitar and i needed it to be plugginable. This was one of the cheaper ones that i could find (there wasn't much range)I think its good. It does what i need it to do (play) and i will get a new one if i get really good and professional, but for now this one is what I need and I like it. |
