I've owned it for a little over a two years now. Instrument had excellent volume and projection, but suffered with intonation problems. I let it go for the winter, which made it worse. I finally had it set-up at guitar center -- didn't solve intonation. I researched set-ups and determined that guitar center tech must not have been very good -- took it elsewhere, they adjusted the nut lower, but said the saddle had been lowered too far by previous tech, so some buzzing would occur higher up the neck -- I figured I'd adjust it later myself with a matchstick, or spend the extra money on a new saddle (money is tight) -- Regardless, intonation problem is gone, and this guitar sings. It is beautiful -- better than the the $2300 martin I kept playing at sweetwater, salivating over, but couldn't afford. I'm quite surprised -- it has gone from being a frustrating guitar that I knew had potential from the projection, to being a real beauty. From what I've seen online, factory setup is not consistent, but they guitars, when you get a good one, do sing.
