I find myself either playing above the fretboard, or having to play closer to the bridge than I like to avoid it. Overall it's a nice guitar with excellent fit and finish, but IMHO, there are better options in tis size and price range.

This is my honest, and truly unbiased opinion, but I'm sure someone will challenge it.
Imo, there's nothing to challenge at all, Ted. Your perspective is valid so far as I'm concerned. Remember though, you can order pretty-much any customization you may want, at a cost of course, but not outrageous. That's part of the allure of Emeralds.
