The sound is generic resonator not bad not great. acousticlly is sounds good. When I play live I ply it through a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe 1x 12 and use the mini humbucker. It sounds good amplified. Think George Thoroughgood.
Sound Rating: 6
The guitar was bought off an old resoplayer who set it up quite well for slide playing
Setup Rating: 8
It looks good with a red sunburst color. It has body and neck binding which was yellowed to give it an old appearance.
Appearance Rating: 7
I don't think it will last , however this is mostly because I put strings on it that were way to heavy and tuned it to open E. There is now a hairline crack in the finish where the neck meets the body.
