I just purchased a ROS-06. I really want a Martin OM/000/00, but had trouble finding time to get to a store to try a few, so I just ordered this one since it was incredibly inexpensive and I could try the wider nut and size. I really try to support the local economy and buy US, but this seemed like a good "gateway" guitar.
Anyway, it sounds pretty good - not in the same class as Martin, but also less than 1/10 the price. Solid top and laminated s/b. I have played many laminated, cheap imports, but this is clearly one of the better ones. 1 13/16" nut, but long scale (25.4") - an unusual combination but good for fingerpicking and strumming. I'm happy with it, but have only had it one day.
