"We are constantly amazed at how consistent these Kohno guitars are. This was has the characteristic clear and articulate Kohno voice that made them famous years ago and continues to make them a popular choice for the demanding player. I personally love the combination of sweetness, clarity and power and the playability is superb. Easy tension and wonderful action. Top notch." - Paul Heumiller
