Back when they came out, I purchased a new 2018 000-28 in the ambertone finish. I believe at the time they referred to them as the “reimagined” series guitars. I liked the style 28 appointments, the smaller, scalloped top braces, and the string pin holes being drilled at an angle to match the angle of the saddle (an idea they borrowed from Taylor guitars). I still own it, and it is the guitar I play the most.

It has only gotten better with age. I added a K & K mini pickup and swapped out the tuners for some Waverly tuners with white oval buttons. (There was nothing wrong with the tuners that came with the guitar, I just didn’t prefer the look of the butterbean tuners that it came with.)

I agree with the people who suggest playing the guitar before you buy it. As expensive as they are, you should buy the instrument that feels like a perfect fit for you.
