I received this guitar for my 25th birthday having only learned the basics on a poor quality nylon string that was lying round the house. Everything arrived packaged properly, undamaged and on time.
The second I picked this guitar up, I thought wow. The sound it made when I first strummed it, again wow. This guitar sounds really nice and perhaps what I like best is it is easy to play. I can play all those bar chords that were virtually impossible on the nylon string, unless I got those finger extensions I secretly planned. Now I'm mastering B chord and all the sheet music that uses B that I've been ignoring over the years.
I havn't tried the 'electro' side of things yet, as I don't even have an amp or cable, but no doubt it sounds flawless. Probably the best gift I've ever received as it will encourage me to develop my hobby, hopefully further than just a hobby.
I am more than pleased with my present and it even came with a well-padded case that was part of the deal apparently. Many thanks to my girlfriend who chose this model for me. You're a star ;)
