"Amazing Deal", Note that although I wrote this review for the natural finish model, since there were no reviews for the sunburst model, I figured I'd post my review here as well...

I only wish there this well-made good sounding Rogue had been available for $99 when I first started playing nearly 25 years ago. For a first guitar (or for a backup for those who are more experienced), this guitar is an amazing deal.

Given the fact that it has a laminated sitka spruce top, the tone is not as bright and clear as a higher cost guitar, but nonetheless it sounds great given the price.

I had consistently read elsewhere that the action on this guitar was quite high, but at $99 I was willing to risk having to adjust the action. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the action was perfect out of the box.

The Fishman Classic 4 electronics work just as expected with the resulting thin-ish tone expected from using a standard-model piezo pickup. If you record the Rogue with a good mike in combination with the pickup, it will sound just fine.

Because I like a very bright but full sound, I replaced the dull sounding Martin's with a set of GHS White Bronze (WBM), which according to GHS are "magnetically active, ideal for acoustic/electric applications..." Finally, to get as big a sound of the Rogue as possible, I replaced the standard plastic bridge pins with a set of D'Andrea brass pins. The brass pins give it a slightly bigger and brighter sound, offsetting the fact that it has a laminate top.

Overall the Rogue Cutaway is a remarkable guitar given the price. The sound might not be ideal, but given that the Fishman electronics cost nearly $100 themselves, it's astonishing that an instrument like this goes for $99. For anyone buying their first acoustic guitar, this guitar is a steal. Likewise, for semi-pros playing on stage or using as a second guitar, this is a great instrument to have in your line-up.
