While I was demoing some amps...I made the mistake of playing this Candy Apple Red Fender Sonoran A/E.....I was wanting to see how a A/E would sound through the amps I was playing......This sucker sounds great and I am going to dare say its as good or better than a Taylor 110CE. The quality is really good..fret work is great..again plays outstanding..I most always have to do some kind of setup from a mail order guitar....Not this one-not even a string change !!
...Rosewood board is nicely figured and not gray and washed out..It has what looks like a slightly forward shifted-scaloped bracing. Solid Spruce top but does have laminated back and sides......Electronics are pretty good acutally.But the neck is fantastic !! I have never care for a "Strat" headstock on a acoustic guitar but I am sold on it now..... If your out and about and see one of these...and its not been to abused by those who frequent GC..give one a try.....I had a discount code sent to me and got it for $239 shipped......
