I absolutely love this guitar, it was a GC score for a measly $499 and really filled a need for me in my guitar stable...I play it pretty much every day. I hadn't actually done any maintenance on it whatsoever since I first got it (early 2019) but the strings really only just recently started feeling like they needed refreshing.

Went with a set of D'Addario Phosphor Bronze (Light), and boy was I ever reminded of how huge a difference strings make when it comes to a guitar like this one (or any really). Thing really sings now, and is way louder than it was before unplugged too which is great for when I don't feel like plugging in.

Anyway I think this particular model is discontinued (though they still make the AC375) but they are WELL worth grabbing whenever you see one at a great price.

Here's a quick flash-y pic or two, and I'm off to wear these strings down again...
