Sounds and plays well. I like the way the 8 strings sound. Even with 8 strings, it’s easier to fret than a normal guitar.
My only issues are that
1. it is slightly out of intonation (probably just needs a set up)
2. the B strings seem to go out of tune very quickly, but that may be partly because of how new nylons stretch.
(Also it’d be nice if it came with a pickup. I can install one myself, but a factory one would be nice.)
