Your general opinion of this product.
The concept is sound
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Does not affect action , etc.

More focussed sound- I think it affected my drednaught more than my OM.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Relates to installation- if you have sound hole controls you ahve to cut slots to fit. There are no punch outs or templates provided. I used a sharp utilty knife, diagonal cutters and a self made wood support to assist. The material does cut easy. You may also have to drill a hole or cut a slot to access the truss rod nut.
