Loud, articulate and very nice tone, across the spectrum. My first impressions were that one of these would stand up easily to any of the newer Martin D-18s I've played. Obviously built for more strumming and flatpicking, I believe that it's resonant and responsive enough for fingerstyle...

At <$600 (with a REALLY nice hard shell case), it is insanely priced for an all-solid wood guitar! Open-back Waverly tuners, too!
The MPA70 is an all solid wood parlor. I've heard nothing but good things about the Masterworks but cannot find much on the Masterworks parlor.
