History:
Purchase: German Music store for 250 German Marks.
The store was going out of business and had a huge sale. Guitar was marked down 1/2 price. With the good dollar to mark exchange rate, it was just over $100.
I had a regular acoustic guitar and wanted an Acoustic/Electric model, but had little money to spend.
What I Like About This Unit: It has beautiful tone and a very light action.
What I Do NOT Like About The Encore A/E: Very plain looking. Higher frets had a lot of buzz at first, but after a neck adjustment, sounds good on all but the hard to get at high frets.
The only control on the guitar is a volume slide. Everything else must be done at the amp.
A/E Quality: Everything has a good fit and finish. Tuners are inexpensive, but it stays in tune well.
Summary: I'd buy another if I could for that same price. Works well for the simple folk and light rock I play.
