Made in Korea by a single luthier.
14 frets non-cash. Dreadnought shape.
Fully massive:
- Spruce
- Back & Sides: Indian Rosewood
- Mahogany neck
- Ebony
The violin is really beautiful ... it smells good wood ... in short, that happiness is over (it would be really stupid to disparage products "handcrafted" in Asia when you see the quality ...)

UTILIZATION

The handle is really nice, including the ebony fingerboard.
Access to acute is not necessarily easy, but it is due to the shape of the body: Dreadnought, which is not really made for! ...
Play on easy reach of beautiful sound.
The action may be a bit high for my game, but a small adjustment can correct this (I hate all the same, the volume obtained with action a little higher is quite interesting ...)

SOUNDS

It is both warm and crystal ... the highs are good, low current, the midrange just right ....
I find the sound of this guitar very very good and perfect for what I asked for, namely to sing with me ....
The sound quality is as good as picking pick at, the spectrum is represented ...

OVERALL OPINION

I hesitated between the Guild GAD-50 (made in China ... for an American brand) and the Cort Earth Custom, and I am really pleased with this acquisition is that of happiness ... to rediscover the songs played in acoustic guitar so ...
The Gad-50 lacked volume for my taste, and a little less bass ... I tried to Taylor that were much duller, had less personality ...
I think this guitar is well worth twice its price and is the guitar equivalent high-end Taylor at (410), with such and such a good violin sound ...

In short, for me is the guitar of a life that revert to the arms of my children ...
