    I played this in store and it sounded pretty good. Since they had new ones still in the box I decided to try one that was "untouched". The only thing I had to do was tune & stretch the stings a few times. Everything else was perfect-no sharp fret ends, tuners do their job very well, nut seems fine, and I love the really crisp tones!
