There's something to be said about this guitar.

When moving up from a beginner's level of instruments, the question of choosing a guitar with a solid top arose. This guitar was chosen. And at the time, it was an excellent choice.

The sound of the guitar, compared to cheaper instruments without a solid top, is something almost everyone who moves up to the next level will notice.

I give this instrument credit; the motivation and desire to improve my guitar playing was evident from the first day I bought it.

The comfort of the Grand Auditorium body with a cutaway for the high positions is undeniable. It's perfect for learning and honing your skills.

I spent quite a bit of time with this guitar. And perhaps without it, I would never have felt the desire to move on.

Yes, the instrument is extremely simple in appearance. Everything is classic, no binding. However, none of that was required. The key was high-quality build quality and acceptable sound. There was nothing to complain about on these points.

Now, with a full-bodied instrument, the difference in sound is noticeable. But not dramatic.

The guitar has a drawback: it's been through various revisions at different points in time. I don't know how significant this is, but on my particular guitar, and based on reviews of other guitars of the same model, the truss rod nut is extremely tight.

Tightening it myself was unpleasant, difficult, and even scary. So, I had it adjusted by a luthier. But after that, the instrument doesn't require any neck adjustments at all.

I'll note that for an acoustic guitar, the tuning above the 12th fret was very low. At the same time, NOT A SINGLE extraneous tone, clang, or buzz came out of the instrument. It's a joy for fingerstyle playing.

There's not much to say about the pickup. I tried playing the setup, but it left me with no impressions. The guitar is still used exclusively in acoustic mode, without any connection. Although the built-in tuner is a nice bonus.

If I were asked whether I would recommend this instrument to someone moving up from beginner, my answer would be 100% yes.
