I love the sound it packs a punch and grabs peoples attention quickly perfect for the scruggs style bluegrass jam sessions It will hold its own with a Gibson all day All my jam buddies love it
Sound Rating: 9
tom did an exellent job on the set up the only thing i changed othe than strings and bridge was to tighten the head skin from about a C to a D flat. As for strings i put ghs jd crowe signature series medium light 10-11-12-20-10 and a snuffy bridge
