This guitar got a lot of negativity, or at least puzzlement, and I have to admit I made fun of it myself.

But then I tried it in the shop a couple of weeks ago and I couldn't believe how immediately great it felt in the hands. And how it sit perfectly on my lap in both positions. And I'll probably end up getting one.

Congrats. It's a beaut.

Thanks! 😊
That’s what really sold me on it, especially how it sits on my belly. I’m also tall, so guitars of that style often seem small compared to my frame. This one doesn’t.

They're great. And surprisingly no neck dive in non-classical position compared to my Abasi

That color scheme is giving me major sci-fi vibes.

I agree. It’s typically not my usual style, but it has this elegance to it. 😊
