I've never played any of Monoprice's acoustics, but this is a pretty crazy price for a solid spruce top. Their Indio electric guitars are fantastic for the price, but acoustics are a different animal. I'd grab one of these in a heartbeat, but I need another guitar like I need a hole in the head. If I were a newbie looking to learn, I'd grab one of these and have a luthier set it up. That way you'll get a great playing guitar from the start, and they'll tell you if there are any issues with the guitar incase you'd need to exchange.

It's not a decade ago, a sub $150 guitar by some brands can have consistently good to excellent action. My sample of 3 Donner $100 guitars all have the action below 6/64. With actually great intonation and no dead notes to speak of. Do the tuners feel great? no. But they are 18:1 and they certainly hold tune for days as long as the strings are fully stretched and stress relieved.

Really the side wood is snobbery, it's not vibrating, and the back is barely involved in sound production. That's the physics. It's like people debating alder vs basswood on an electric guitar body.

Any acoustic guitar that is playable, and sounds good and has good intonation shouldn't be treated like disposable trash. Any guitars glue will fail, solid wood top will crack with that sort of abuse. Even if its a 60 dollars the spruce and mahogany trees still had to be cut down.

Ugh, Monoprice cancelled my order saying it was out of stock and refunded me my $65.

It's in stock at 100 now and it's still probably the least expensive "good" solid top guitar available. Especially in a dreadnought and with a padded bag. I agree with the idea that they really would prefer to be selling these at $200 and they might stop selling anything like it at $100.

I'm glad you can get something with a decently thin finish and good neck/playability and sound for $60 but ultimately it doesn't seem very sustainable and if you NEED this it's well worth $100 too.

Received mine yesterday. It sounds okay and is generally built well, action is decent but would need to be lowered (some out-of-the-box setup is to be expected). However, the fretboard has numerous cracks and dings, and some of the frets don't even sit properly on the edges (they haven't been hammered out properly). Will get an exchange and fingers crossed the next one is a keeper.
