This was my first guitar ever

I had a first act before this but it was when I was very young so I don’t count it, but this was the first guitar that I had when I started learning guitar.

Pretty basic yet functional guitar.

I've got this for my birthday around 6 years ago. Still got it in ebony color. Works great, easy to set up, and good sounding little guitar. Very solid, mine haven't got any scratches ir dents.

Nut and saddles are quite cheap, since I got mine worn overtime. But for the price it's quite good. Tuners may look cheap, but hold tune very well, at least on my guitar.
