I love these acoustics! I actually ended up with three of them. I have the brown “natural” one, the checkerboard one and then the black and gold anniversary version. I love the feel and the sound. Has a much more treble heavy sound than your typical acoustic. Between the three i have, there is a very slight sound difference between say the natural one and the checkerboard one, definitely feels like different wood or materials but I love them all! For the price, super solid acoustic and I recommend any of them!

I had a black one. I wish I still had it. Beautiful guitar and great sound.

They didn't sell well at first. Got mine on clearance for $199 at the end of the first run. After a while word got out that they sound great and they were going for $700-$1000 used for a minute before they started the reissue.
Love mine never sold it even though I was tempted by the 5x$. Downside though after 15 years some of the the tuners have broke and the smaller body is a little bit more quite than I would like. Still love it

I have this model (1) but unfortunately the “Let’s Go” strap has deteriorated and is now broken. I can’t seem to find one anywhere, does anyone have an idea?

I have one and for the money they are just OK. My older Seagull acoustic is twice the price and night and day. You get what u pay for

Are they fun to play? I think the checkered black and white one.
