I've taken it away on two trips now; and CAN NOT get enough of it.
You see; I've only ever had cheaper ones ($400 mark) and they were all hard to bar chord etc etc etc....
But the action and feel and SOUND of this thing is un FUCKING believable. Believe me. (see what i did there??!??!?!)
BUT HERE'S THE THING..... I put plectrum strings on. Heard of them??? 11's; so no lighter than usual; but they feel fantastic. You can bend them, slide them barr them. They're no lighter - just softer.
Combined with the fact that my playing has improved 10 fold since I last owned an acoustic; and that I'm finally getting a little confidnece with my singing there is now a point to owning a decent acoustic.
