So this little gem caught my eye as I'm thinking about upgrading my acoustic guitar situation. Does anyone have experience with them? It seems like as acoustics go, this one offers a lot of things that you just can't get at this price point.

That looks all right, you never know though til it's in your hands, obviously
Maybe look into some of the Blueridge guits, at that pricepoint, or the less expensive Breedloves

Solid spruce top and solid Rosewood back and sides for $369?
And it's all gloss!
Please post photos if you buy it.
There used to be some full sized Johnson dreads (and there was another brand) in solid wood for that price. That's unusual. Can you return it? It would be worth trying.
Post photos!

I'm always a little apprehensive about Xaviere guitars as I've heard a lot of good and bad reviews. John from GFS (I think that's his name) said they will be available again in 4 - 6 weeks. I haven't seen much on their acoustics though. And although I'd love a Taylor or Martin, I'm thinking this would be more realistic to my budget. As far as returning it goes, I've heard that GFS has great customer service as I believe they are trying to build up their brand, it's definitely something to think about though.
