I just got back from my local store, where I played a few of this previously-unknown brand. To say I was impressed would be an understatement. One was an acoustic-electric that sounded so good I wasn't even aware that it was an A-E - it sounded that good. Then, I plugged it in, and was again quite pleased, especially with the 5-position Varitone-like switch, which gave 5 distinctive voices. Beautiful craftsmanship, which included contrasting wood bindings & rosette, and a nice neck volute. And this guitar (I don't know the model number) was a mere $500!!!! I also played a 12-string acoustic that played quite nicely and had a big, balanced tone, for only $400. All in all, a brand to be reckoned with. If you get a chance, play some.
Edit: I think the A-E I played was this one:
