I really like it! The price was great and it’s actually cheaper now ($159) than when I bought it. Not sure how much longer with the Tariffs and now gobs of Chinese containers dropping into the sea out in Long Beach! The size is just perfect. I’m not small but hanging over a full size guitar is not as enjoyable as this nice midsize. The body is only 3 1/2” instead of 5″ thick which is a huge difference. And, even though it’s shorter, it only has 3 fewer frets than my full size. The cutout easily compensates for that by making frets 15 – 17 much easier to reach.
It’s a Donner Rising G1, with a mahogany body with a carbon top. I’m still using the factory strings and I have another set that came with it. The tone is really pleasant to me. I do have a small issue with it, that I have to iron out. There’s 13th fret is slightly low near the high E and B strings. I have to press the E extra hard to make sure it’s playing E and not F. But this affects very little of what you would normally play and I’ll figure out how to fix it eventually.
