Played around on this guitar for awhile, really enjoyed it and loved the price for the value of the guitar. Just purchased it today and I love it! Anyone else own one of these?

I have the 300 CE version of the T-Bucket. It's like yours except with quilt maple top and mahogany back and sides.

I fell in love with the look and it sounds pretty good too. But I can't get over the fact that these T-Buckets are not solid wood. It's all laminate according to the specs here on the products page. Doesn't seem to resonate like a solid wood guitar. But it is great for what I'm using it for around the campfire and things like that. The string action and neck relief were perfect from the factory and I haven't had to adjust anything during the one year that I've owned it. Mine is a very solid guitar.

I got a 300 for Christmas, flame maple top, mahogany back and sides, tri-color sunburst. The 400 is all maple and about $100 more. It sounds so much better than the Estaban that I had been playing. It might not ring like a solid top but, for the money, it sounds great. At the open mike I've gotten a bunch of positive comments. Most people can't believe the price. The pickup took very little tweeking to get a good sound through the PA. I agree with metropolis74 that the setup from the factory is spot on. I REALLY like this guitar.
