A cheap guitar of course.
Bought from M.F.
(65$ w/tax shipping)
Arrived feb 15

Important stuff:
25.5 inch scale
1/8 " action at nut 3/16" at 12th fret (A little high)
1 3/4 inch nut width
Sealed gear tuners.
Spruce looking top (Could be ply)

I've bought two of this model. ( One goes in the trunk.)
Both of them are great beater guitars with a decent sound and a pretty thick and heavy build. So I guess manufacture is consistant.
This guitar is just too big for small hands so it wouldn't be very good for the ladies and could be uncomfortable for short people in general.
With the wide fretboard and thick neck it's really easy going fingerstyle guitar
and has consistant tone from low to high.
The finish isn't the best, but the set up is fine and the price leaves a whole lot of room to forgive minor imperfections.
The rogue is worth considering if you're looking around for a bargan basement guitar.
(However if you're looking for a cheap student guitar stick with the major brands!... They actually have a resale value.)

Just an idea... Not an actual serving suggestion.
