For the price its not a cheap little toy so I do expect this to be fully functional, which it absolutely is, when unplugged its as quiet as an unplugged electric guitar, theres no real "acoustic" unplugged sound to it, so for me its nice for practicing without bothering people.The reason I got it is for travel, going to the beach, flying to another state, I dont have to worry about taking one of my $1k guitars and something happening to it.Its definantly more sturdy than a hollow acoustic guitar thats for sure, like im not afraid of accidently smacking It on something and breaking it.The tuning knobs are OK, could be better but it holds its tune very well, just feels like the strings are a little grippy probably from the acoustic bridge, and the fact that they are being tuned across backwards, pulling the string across the piazo to tune. Intonation and action are set pretty perfectly right out of the box, mine even came perfectly in tune which kinda made me laugh.I was considering the electric version vs the acoustic version because of the adjustable bridge and ability to set intonationI originally ally chose this acoustic version thinking it was going to be louder acoustically without any speaker, the video is a bit misleading on that part, in my mind it doesn't sound anywhere near as loud as in the video.The input jack does in fact need to be opened up and tightened , its loose from the start and ive experienced this before as a beginner that even 1 twist to tighten without gripping the nut under the plastic plate can break the wires inside.Plugged in using my small rock on amp it sounds good, theres definantly some minor "fuzz" id guess you'd call.it, not feedback but almost like if a pickup was trying to read 2 strings ar the same time and kinda blending them when chords are playedAnd the output from the low e seems to be lower than the other strings so its a touch quiter.The leg rest at first confused me because theres a notch on the end of the first bat which slides into the body of the guitar so I figured it must like "pop" into some kind of locking mechanism that would prevent it from sliding out but theres definantly no "locking" feeling when its put all the way itBUT I do think it has something to do with holding it in because once its in you can hold the guitar without supporting it and it doesn't just slide out but when intentionally pulling it out there zero resistance so kinda nice.Neck plays like a low actioned acoustic, it has the thickness of an acoustic guitar neck but the strings are easier to press than my personal acoustic guitar yet haven't had any buzzing problems on 3rd fret buzz testThe case is a simple over the shoulder/ handle caseI will say the handle needs to be about 2 inches further forward for the weight to be correctly distributed and carried properly, as it is the weight it forward and makes the neck hang down which is awkward and the reason I will never carry it this way but it comes with a cross shoulder strap which fits perfectly comfortably across my back.All in all I only gave 4/5 stars on value for money, because I really feel this should be more around $200-$230 , vs the $300+ i paid for itBUT That said, I'd easily purchase this again seeing as theres nothing that is quite like it and theres nothing about it that stands out as a blaring issue, looking forward to having it wherever I go!
