  • Hi Jeff, what's the difference between a regular laminated top and a solid spruce top?

    Which one would you consider best?

    Thanks!

    Keep it up.

  • @juaollla A regular laminate top can be made of multiple layers of unspecified wood and usually has a thin layer of veneer over the top for figure and appearance. When the term "solid spruce" is used, the top is made from 100% spruce, usually 3 layers. The top produces a warm mellow acoustic tone. Jeff

  • Hi,

    This guitar looks amazing...I want to buy one from Thomann.de (i'm from europe) but i have o question about the fretboard is it ebony? in the description they say (thomann.de) it's rosewood and you say it's ebony...please help:)!!!

    Thanks

  • Jeff, is this guitar suitable for ska-style playing?

  • ...I found this guitar on thomann.de and I immediately fell in love with the stunning look of this guitar... I wasnt sure how it sounds... but you convinced me to get it... great acoustic tone... thanks for your post...

  • Nice guitar!

    Good sound.

  • wow, I'm impressed with this review, there's not many that convince me to buy a guitar straight off, buy you've sold it to me in under 5 minutes. If you were able to ship to the UK free of charge then I would be buying from you simply cos you seem like such a dude, but unfortunately its cheaper to order from mainland UK for shipping reasons. Otherwise thank you for such an informative review of the guitar, its a truly beautiful instrument!

  • Looks like a whole lot of guitar for not much money.
