Playability This is another in a line of professional instruments that simply does not disappoint in any way.  She is very easy to play and quite fast.  Set up, adjustments, and fine tuning were recently done by Luthier's and it shows in every way.  The instrument is as fine an example of Kenny Hill's top of the line guitar that you will find.
Intonation Perfect.
Sound Extremely versatile....soft, sweet, loud, punch, tasty, and deep.  This guitar is very powerful in every regard.
Projection Extremely powerful
Class of guitar Master Concert instrument
Comments This is another great guitar that is simply gorgeous in terms of sound, projection and sustain.  The guitar is very loud.  At the same time she is also very pretty sounding.  The total dynamic and color palette available to you with this guitar is simply extraordinary.  The control the guitar offers you coupled with its wide palette and total volume leaves nothing to be desired.  The guitar is structurally perfect.  There are the tiniest lines in the finish, top and back, but this is unavoidable in such a soft French polished finish over time.  The guitar is meticulously made by Kenny.
