    I've been wishing I had a real "plinky" sounding acoustic. I wonder if that thing is playable enough?

    After reading the customer reviews, it sound like it really is worth the money. Everyone said they were surprised how playable and full it sounded.

    Sorry Jim, it appears to not have that plinky sound...

    I must admit I'm disappointed. I've seen better looking buxem cowgirls. I've seen better looking buxem cows. But maybe if you've been out on the prairie a long time...

    Lemme know if they're nice and "plinky."

    If so, I'll wait for the "Sundown Seranade" model.

    Are you kiddin'?
    I want one of each. How can you not get the entire set, the complete collection, the whole enchilada?

    It just wouldn't be right to have one or two of them.
    It's...it's like having three of the Beatles dolls.

    Yeah, but is it "plinky?"

    When you say "not bad for a 3/4," do you mean it has that boxy, cheap sound, but plays in tune?

    sounds pretty good. i did have to give the neck a turn and a half of relief to get it to play proper. FYIFWIW, the supplied allen key doesn't fit the trussrod nut good thing i have metric allen wrenches.
