This is an excellent guitar, beautiful to play, comfortable, versatile, and it sounds amazing no matter what you want to play.

I love the guitar. It's a mildly antiqued Classic S, in black (white pickguard and controls). I got the guitar as a gift and, as an intermediate player, feel like the guitar is more than I need, but I play it every day, and enjoy the heck out of it.. It makes me want to be a better player, and it helps me to sound like one. Got me motivated to be more serious about playing, learning theory, songwriting, DAW recording, the works. It's a beautifully made guitar, and a lovely thing to get to play all the. Feel spoiled by it, but I'm ok with that.
