[Gorgon90]

Versatile bit of kit, I would definitely like to try it out.

 

[Chicken Man]

I'd give that a shot for sure.

 

[Flamencology]

Not something I’d ever buy or recommend.

 

[jelloman]

Attempts to do everything, does none of it well ..

 

[DinoMikeSr]

I absolutely love the way it looks. Next.

 

[PunkKitty]

Nah

 

[Lerxst]

It's like an ovation celebrity & godin multiac gave birth to an equally yucktastic guitar

 

[Aahzz]

It's fine.

 

[mongooz]

calling Lindsey Buckingham to the red courtesy phone......

 

[dodgechargerfan]

I’d give it a go.

 

[Denverdave]

A lot of versatility, but not my thing.

 

[Pine Apple Slim]

If I wanted a T5 I'd def give that one a try.

 

[Honkridge]

naw

 

[Gary Blanchard]

I have resisted hybrid guitars for years but am slowly coming to a place where I would at least want to give one a try. This is one I would check out.

 

[jp_nyc]

I’d rather get an Artcore hollowbody and have a piezo pickup installed.

 

[Guitar Heel]

absolutely not.

 

[tstrahle]

I'm not sure how to string it. Acoustic strings or electric strings? I guess it depends on the use, but then just pick up an acoustic or an electric.

 

[Dogsinplastic]

I wanted a Godin A6 Ultra for ages until they doubled the price in the last few years and swapped out the rosewood bridge and board for richlite.

It was admittedly a steal at $700, but at $1,400 I'd rather buy a real acoustic.

 

[BlockInlay]

Not my taste but Taylor makes excellent guitars.
