Thanks.
I'll try and get some better pics tommorow, this thing doesn't have a scratch or ding on it anywhere, and the top is almost 3D in it's presentation.
And the brazilian rosewood is highly figured as well.

I just spent about an hour or so doing the full set-up on it which is a total pain in the ass. The bridge isn't fixed to the instrument so it makes intonating it a major headache but once it was finally set it played great.

It was only $179. It sounds pretty good, nothing super special.

the paint on those colored strings flakes off and is a fucking bitch to clean, if you're gonna play it change them before you do.
