Hello. I have been looking into guitars for a while now and this one is really a great looking guitar, but does it sound good?
I want something that looks nice, but has a pickup and sounds good.

For $400, do you think this is a good fit?
I am going from an Epiphone AJ-100, so hopefully this is a nice improvement, since that was a $100 guitar.

What do you guys think?

Isakala,
It's a very good looking guitar but it won't sound as nice as the CD-220SCE, same hardware, same electronics, and same retail price but has a solid spruce top rather than laminate zebrano. A solid spruce top will sound much better than a laminated top especially as it gets played more and ages whereas a laminate top will sound largely the same new as it will in 20 years.

You can get the CD-220SCE with burled ash or ovangkol sides that are just as striking and beautiful as the zebrano of the CD-220CE.

Just my $0.02 worth, happy shopping]
Zach
