"Wouldn't envy anything from Ovation, Martin, etc."
Feature:
I wish it was acoustic electric. But overall, it probably wouldn't have played as beautifully if it were an acoustic electric.
Quality:
Definitely an Ibanez, well made and beautiful. The finish is one of a kind. Please look at the picture, for you get what you paid for and more, but lookswise, it is a real beauty. No loose parts, or cosmetic defects. I'm not concerned about it breaking, for it handles so well. It seems built to last.
Value:
It's a great value for the money, actually, it exceeds the money. It is so sharp, classy and has such a mellow, yet projected sound.
Desirability:
I think it has great sex appeal. I found it sexy. It's soft, glossy finish, and paint underlay that gives the illusion of a ripelling river. The color is very rare and easily distinguishable than any other acoustics out there, even acoustic electric ones.
Sound:
The sound is nice, clear and much better than many of the Ovation acoustic ones that I was considering buying. I played with it and fell in love with the sharpness of the sound, and ease of play.
Support:
No problems dealing with company, but I also have a 2-year-warranty with the place I bought it from as well. No repairs, and no upgrades were made.
Overall:
A friend who's an expert at guitars played the EW20ANS (this guitar) and the EW20QP and they sounded virtually the same. Of course, the difference being primarily in color. Another salesman also guaranteed that the two were pretty much the same exact guitar structurally.
