Redlands Dreadnought

Very well-made, incredible value, telling all my friends to buy one

This is not only one of my favorite guitar purchases ever, but maybe one of my favorite product purchases ever. This guitar is incredibly well designed, and well-made. The guitar arrived nearly in tune, that was the first sign that I bought something pretty solid. I’ve played it nonstop since I got it, and plan to play it at my next live gigs, right alongside my old Martins. The neck is super playable, the action is very low, but still gets good volume. I love the feel of the neck, maybe it’s those jumbo frets, but it is super playable. Depending on the song, the acoustic dry can sound a little bit boxy, but plugged in it is very impressive. Of course, also plan on taking it on business flight every few weeks, the guitar finish is very hard and solid, I suspect it’s gonna repel most dings encountered. The walnut fingerboard on mine was pretty dry, I put some lemon oil on it and now it looks just like rosewood. Be careful when you are restringing it, I burned a set of strings, not paying attention. Maybe some more specific instructions about how to move the tuning bridge into the proper position prior to locking the headstock lockers in.

My Favorite Couch Guitar

As a retired guitarist and collector with over 40 guitars and many travel size, this is my favorite playing small guitar and the sound is fantastic with beautiful articulation with my finger style play and plenty of volume for campfire strumming with others. . Great Value and easily tuned was well.

Great Sound, Good looking, Amazing Customer Service, and Slightly Complicated Tuning System

Awesome guitar. The tuning system is its biggest strength and weakness. The guitar sounds very good for it's size (very resonant!), the built-in tuner is accurate, and it holds tune pretty well. The tuning system is very unique, saving lots of space. The problem is that, because it is such an innovative design, it took me a while to get changing strings right. In the process, I (ish) wasted two packs of strings and broke one of the tuning pegs quite easily. However, I understand my mistakes now, and customer service sent me replacement parts immediately. Overall, I think it's totally worth it and I would recommend it to others. It's fun to play!
