    3.0 out of 5 stars Good sound, but has major flaws.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2019
    The sound is what I would expect, but there are major QC issues. The binding is gouged, and has staining from improper scraping during the build. The curls biding is not fully cut out in some places, and huge chunks are missing from other places. The binding job looks amateurish at best. That said, the sound is bright, and has good tone. The strings are meh, but that’s to be expected.
    Bottom line, the sound is what I would expect, but the finishing was subpar.
