I dig the idea, but I think that soundhole is too damned big. That said I'd reserve opinion on that from an aural perspective until I actually heard (or better yet played) the guitar.

Another gorgeous piece of woodwork.

I actually really dig that. Price doesn't seem outrageous for a small builder acoustic, either.
 
I like that the knobs that are inside the sound hole.

Gets an A for originality, but I am not sure I like the overall, finished product.
 
Strange design but I would give it a roll. Many of the acoustic manufacturers have been going to the sound hole about on the upper bout of the body. What I find unusual are the control are inside the cavity.

Way curious!
 
At first I wanted to hate it..... but the more I looked at it.... oh fuck.... I WANT ONE!!!! :embarrassed:
 
Interesting design and at a reasonable price. . . . I'd really have to play it, but it passes the "meh or not" hurdle easily.
 
Well, I suppose I'm being unfair cuz I've never played a guitar with 'em. But then I'd be afraid that if I DID like 'em I'd have a hard time going back to straight frets.
 
I don't know how I feel about it. At first I wanted to hate it then I kind of like it then I hate it again. Just take it away because it's confusing me.
 
I don't know if I have seen a guitar here that has both equal amounts of awesome win and pathetic fail. Too much of the latter = fail.
