I bought this when it was a GB special. Price was excellent, under $300. As for the guitar itself, it's easy to play, very solid, sounds good whether using headphones, external computer speakers or an amp. The output choices are one of the great features due to the built in amp(requires 9v battery but comes with one). You can play and not bother anyone by using earbuds/headphones, or plug in your external computer speakers you you're good to go. If you have an amp near by, then you're ready to rock. I prefer the clean mode, but distortion is just a flick of the switch. Has lugs for a strap, easily tuned, decent weight but not too heavy for travel with and it looks good! I've only had mine a few days but I don't see any probable issues. One thing I did find, I prefer a 3.5mm 90 degree plug versus a straight one when using headphones. If I have the guitar in my lap I sometimes smash the wires at the end of the 3.5mm plug but by using a set a with 90 degree angle plug that issue no longer exists. Plenty of volume with headphones, easy to travel with, case is very well padded and has 2 zippered compartments, one small and one larger. I have my earbuds, cable, tuner, picks, spare battery, etc stored in the small pocket, larger one easily holds fullsize headphones and more. I actually put a portable 7" screen dvd player in it, some dvd's and still have room. I think for a travel guitar the sound is great, it's built solid, case is well made and heavily padded. I have no complaints, 5 stars all the way.
