This is a very high quality beautiful instrument.
It suites both clawhammer and finger picking, for styles.
Has a rich tone with good volume,
The thin rim matched with the tone ring adds plenty of punch.
The workmanship is notable, and the wood and hardware choice makes for a very nice finish.
Sound Rating: 10
The action is set up very well,
I would recommend standard size 5/16 bridge or even lower for about an 1/8" at the 12th fret.
Setup Rating: 9
Black walnut neck with a slotted head and aged brass nickel make for a very nice looking instrument.

Nate is very responsive and helpful through the whole process of the build.. I haven't encountered any issue. However if there is anything wrong than I'm 100% confident that Nate will help resolve any issues.
