My new Oliver guitar with mahogany body and top was what I expected. I had been away from playing guitar for years and now had arthritis in my hands. I was determined to get back into playing. This guitar is great for that. It doesn't have a remarkable sound like my old guitars, but it is easy to play. The sound is a medium rich tone not too deep and not too high. Just what I wanted. I figure I will play it a year and work my way up to something better. For now, this is just right. It was priced right and came ready to play, just had to tune it. I can recommend Orangewood Guitars to anyone.
