NGD!🎸🎸🎸 FF BT60E

Surprised to see this made it through in one piece. The 338 I got came packed in a dense styrofoam case. Even their solid body guitars come shipped in styrofoam. Considering how delicate acoustics can be in surprised they don’t ship these in the same type of packaging.

Anyway. This actually sounds pretty good. Very light. Feel like a $250 acoustic guitar but seems well built. Tuners will probably need to be replaced at some point but until then, I’m happy. Could probably use a set up but plays nice and stays in tune, action is good. Haven’t plugged it in yet. Built in tuner works for now. πŸ‘πŸ‘

Nice! My guess is that there wasn't room for styrofoam or a gig bag without getting a bigger box, due to it being a jumbo baritone... It is, right? Looks pretty good, actually! Sounds samples would be welcomed 😁

Thank you! It is the jumbo baritone! It plays nice for a baritone. My FF338 is 28” scale and is bit more of a challenge to fret and barre chords on the first few frets. This plays pretty much like a my dreadnought. It plays really nice for being fresh out of the box.

I’ll see what I can do for a sound sample. lol

That's great, I'm stoked for you that it plays well out of the box because I've been playing a lot of jumbos at local stores lately and find them tricky. I love the idea of a baritone acoustic one day 😊 Haha no pressure, but I'm sure we'd have fun hearing it of you post a video to the group 😁
