Sound

I got this guitar for my birthday, and as soon as I played it just strumming a chord I loved the sound of it. However loudly you play this guitar the notes always sound full and don't lose tone when you don't play them as hard. The sound itself is really deep on the E and A strings, nice and round on the D and G strings, and very crisp on the B and E strings. The only way I can describe the overall sound is full. It has power, depth and crispness, and if you put it into a dropped tuning like DADGAD for example the sound has even more depth and sounds even better. The only thing wrong with the sound is that if you go above th 5th fret on the high E string the notes start to lose some of their depth. If I had to compare this sound to a proffesional guitarist I would say it is mst like Andy Mckee's sound.
