Thats a really good looking acoustic! I like the price too! What I found out after purchasing two acoustics online (im hard to train) is that the guitars were nothing that I expected and I ended up getting rid of both. The only way to buy an acoustic/electric is to go to the music store and pick it up and play it. Im lucky enough to have a Guitar Center close buy so I can put hands on most makes and models. That is where I learned that even some of the more expensive models were total crap while some of the cheaper models like the Ibanez can have a really comfortable out of the box feel and sound.
