After watching a lot of video reviews, I picked up one of these a month ago and was really impressed with the sound when I first played it. I didn’t want to put it down. It sounds full and plays easily. The gig bag included was a bonus because I needed one. It’s well made with backpack straps and rubber on the bottom. Overall I’m really pleased for getting such a nice sounding guitar for $175. The guitar comes set up and I only had to tune. The finish is also smooth and it comes with an optional pick-guard but I think it looks fine as is. You won’t be disappointed if you get one of these. It’ll be in my collection forever.

After watching Orangewood guitar reviews on Youtube for weeks, I decided to order. The mahogany Oliver was all I could afford right now. Delivery was quick within a few days and the setup on the guitar was just right. What amazes me about this guitar is the ease of playing all over the neck, in fact the low action on this guitar makes it a great choice for doing acoustic guitar lead work. The strings bend easily and it's so easy to move around. I'm not going to say that the sound is quite as full, but the Oliver compares very favorably to the Big Baby Taylor I had with the playability. The strumming doesn't produce a punchy bright sound which you would expect on a mahogany top guitar, but individual notes and fingerpicking is very pleasurable. Overall I'm impressed with my purchase, and like many others I look forward to order another Orangewood in the future. Thumbs up!

This guitar is so very amazing that I’m sure I’ll buy another one soon!! Sweet tone, in tune all the way up the fingerboard, and a VERY affordable price. Don’t delay, order one now!

This little gem is rekindling my passion for guitar. I did a lot of research prior to making this purchase. Before this guitar I only had one other guitar. a type of fender dreadnought. I played it for 10 years and discovered the style of guitar I was most interested in and what I really wanted in my next guitar. Oliver Mahogany offered everything I was looking for. very comfortable neck and frets, great play between the neck and the strings. Only "bad" thing I can think of was the guitar string pegs were loose when I received the guitar. but that was an easy fix. just had to push them in.

I love the sound its different, but what I wanted. With the price and everything I would make the purchase all over again.

Hope this helps anyone considering the purchase. I hope you get to have a similar experience a I did.

Love it. Great price. Great look. Great sound.
