Review: Awesome Guitar, ........ - I have similar guitars costing thousands, which don't play as sweet as this Kona. Rich deep sound, and just a blast to play. This is a real value in a nice guitar, and I must say I am a little suspicious of some of the highly negative reviews given a similar Kona model, which my brother ordered after playing mine, and his is just fine.
Review: Amazing fit and finish - Amazing fit and finish. Plays like a dream. I've been playing guitar for 48 years and this is one of the nicest I've played. A super pro guitar. Nice case also.
