I doubt you can find a better overall guitar at this price. Warm and very vibrant sound way beyond my expectations for the price. Feels nice to touch as well (the natural finish has a grainy feel and really helps to connect to the instrument in a tactile way). The build quality and materials are not perfect obviously, but one should not expect it after all. Its a joy to play it, especially when you lower the action a bit as its initially too high (at least for my liking).

for that price, there is nothing better you can buy. the sound is very nice and balanced, it gives you the feeling you are actually playing a real instrument. people keep saying this is an "entry level" guitar, but i believe is a good guitar also

I bought this guitar in order to practice as I am traveling a lot. Therefore I didn't want to spend too much in case of "abuse" in the planes. anyway, easy to play. I changed the strings and the guitar is great. perfect for beginners too.
