I have a 2015 which is different than the 2020+ model in some ways, but it's awesome

Back in 2015 this was made with Engelmann Spruce on EIR, no arm bevel or upper bout soundhole, with less ornamentation on the fretboard, but the other specs are the same. I love mine. Sweet and subtle, modest and deep bottom without boom. wont get loud. great for fingerpicking. i love mine, it sounds so sweet. neck is comfy, not too thick or thin in the profile. nice gloss finish. full scale 25.5". 1.75" at the nut. 12" fretboard radius which is cool. dual action truss. Im very happy with mine and dont plan on selling it ever. With a proper setup and nice low action this cannot be beat at the price point.

Mic is good, pain in the a** to install

It sounds good. Mic is different to the anthem's, which I have also owned. Not a lot of bass, but everything else is very good. No feedback issues as long as everything else I have is set right. Small amount of noise. It sounds like a small and low blowing wind, whereas the anthem was higher pitched and needed eq to control. This doesn't need special eq to deal with the noise, as its low and unnoticeable unless you are right next to it. Would be ok for gigging.

Bought new, but it didnt included the wire routing clips like the manual says. did have 2 small pieces of tape though. Manual did not come with it, had to be downloaded. Wires are not long enough for a Grand Auditorium. You can run this system, but the wires are not long enough to route cleanly around the outskirts of the body.

This is an absolute SOB to put in. I would curse more, but mods probably wouldn't like that, LOL. Hope you have a big soundhole, or small arms! I would suggest a flashlight, small mirror, small wrench for the jack nut, and a whole lot of patience! Let's just say I'm glad it's in there and working well.

Oh yeah, the presence adjustment is not hard to do, they give you a special tool to adjust the small philips on the volume control.

Strings

Rich Piano-like strings that last longer than others

Great for adding detail to a darker guitar. Feel good. Last a long time. I like to play on them for a few days before recording with them though, they have a bright sheen when first put on. Overall, they are awesome. I recommend people treat themselves to a set.
