I bought one after trying it in the shop through an amp. I didn't think to try it acoustically. it had faults that a luthier couldn't put right. snagging on the frets. Made out of beautiful materials, and a great transducer system.

theres probably some good ones out there. but I would advise - buyer beware. take someone smarter than me to go shopping with - shouldn't be too much of a problem, finding someone.
