Luna Muse Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic Guitar, Quilted Ash Review

Luna Muse Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic Guitar,  Quilted Ash

I started playing instruments in 1995 and started playing bass guitar in 1998. I started playing electric guitar around 2001. I custom built my first bass in 2000. This was the first acoustic guitar I have purchased. I did a lot of research and listened to the recordings on Luna's website. I had wanted to purchase the fauna phoenix, but one day I saw this one for sale for less than 250 shipped. I bought it unseen and unplayed, breaking my first rule of guitar shopping, and was very nervous before it arrived.
My apprehension was unfounded. The guitar is stunning. The abalone inlays look excellent. The wood is beautiful. Even the tuning machines look good. The physical beauty of the guitar is surpassed only by its sound. I strum it as I walk past it's stand because it just sounds so good. The harmonics are amazing.
The guitar was set up perfectly when it arrived. The strings where brand new, so it's tuning fluctuated a bit for about a week. Since then the tuning has been very stable, and the strings all seem to detune in tune with each other. The tuner makes it so this isn't a problem. The on board tuner is very convenient, so much so that I couldn't find my electric tuner when I needed it for one of my basses.
I have several friends who have played acoustic guitar much longer than I have and they all love it. From my limited experience it sounds as good or better than any other acoustic I have played. It sounds much better than my friends cheap fender, and on par or better than another friends taylor.
I only have 2 complaints. First, there is no strap button on the neck of my guitar. Second, I don't know what kind of strings are on it. I want to restring it with the same kind because they sound great. I usually try 4 or 5 different string sets before I stick with one for a guitar. However, no one has answered my questions concerning this on the Luna Guitars Forum.
This is now my favorite guitar (out of 7, basses included). If you can find one for 250, its a steal. Buy it.

Dean Exotica Quilt Ash Lefty Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Gloss Natural Review

I received my Dean Lefty in a paper thin box with no padding or foam at all!
thrown on my front porch. There were dents and cracks all over it. To make matters worse the box has enough shipping labels on it to make 2 round trips across the country. I think it was returned at least 3 other times. I will never buy anything fragile from Amazon again. How could anyone in their right mind ship a fragile instrument like that. I am highly irritated. Buy the way today's date is 11/24/09. There was one left after I purchased so in a few days there will be one more.
Coming soon to a Guitarist near you an Exotic Dean Lefty with Lemon flavoring!

Update, as of 12/3/09 I have not received my refund and they have increased the cost of the guitar from $306 to $399 WOW!!!
