Comments: This is an amazing sounding guitar in every respect. The M-18 is very rich and woody with an immense amount of volume yet extremely responsive, and excellent for fingerstyle playing. The sound is just a bit tighter and more focused than the M-14. The Euro Spruce is superb quality and has some nice Bearclaw. Ovangkol is a rare and unusual wood, somewhere in the sound spectrum right between Walnut and Rosewood. The color is very similar to good Claro with an array of earthy hues ranging from grey to dark browns. This set also has some nice figure in it.
