    I played this guitar (the display model) at the store and in it was out of my price range - slightly. But I kept coming back to it. I've decided long ago that I won't buy display merch, so I ordered one. I comes with a real nice gig bag. It does not come with the truss rod - you either order the right one or have a tech do the adjustment. I will have that done as the clearance at the 12 fret is at least 5 mm. While there, I might have them take care of the tiny bit of fret sprout further up the neck. It came with Martin strings but they seemed duller sounding. Otherwise, the sound - both the acoustic and the Fishman pick-ups - is very nice.
