Player Reviews:
"There are so many lackluster hybrids in the market place, if you aren't willing to sacrifice tone but need crossover specs, this is the guitar for you. The tone is sweet enough to handle the classical repertoire but the dimensions make it well suited for any style you wish to play. Al and I had great fun dropping it to DADGAD and C tunings as well, it really holds up to anything you wish to do." - Paul Heumiller
"What a cool instrument this one is. The longer scale makes the tension feel great for a steel string player like myself. The neck is wide enough, but not too wide. And, the sound is crisp and clear with lots of low end resonance. An incredible guitar, especially at this price." - Al Petteway
