Description
Clear, articulate tone, even across all the strings. A sweet little feather-light guitar with lots of character.The neck is (true to this model's spec's) a narrow 1-9/16" wide at the nut, so is best suited for smaller hands, though I wear XL-size gloves and can manage it OK.
The action is 3mm (1/8") @ the 12th fret. I have it strung with Martin MA130FX silk and bronze (appropriately low in tension to suit the instrument's light construction, IMO), and it plays well.
There are no major repairs that I can see. The endpin hole was enlarged to fit a jack which has been replaced with a "No-Jack" endpin. A strap button is added to the heel. The finish has the expected cracking and flaking, but is mostly intact, and may have been lightly oversprayed.
Included is a like-new heavy-duty gig bag, which fits the guitar very nicely.
