as an owner of one of these guitars, it puzzles me as to all the questions about scale length and difficulty to fret. I have had too many guitars to count over 50 years of playing and cannot remember a more forgiving, easy to play, and enjoyable instrument.
Fret action is soft as butter with either normal or high tension strings. when my hands get tired from a lot of rehersal, the guitar I pick up is my 000c-16sgtne.
I have owned a Martin 0018G, a 00028C, a number of Guilds, Goya's, a Nylon string Ovation and many Spanish and Asian guitars over the years and my SGTNE takes a back seat to none of them.
The string spacing and the radius on the fret board & saddle were the only things I needed a few hours to get used to.
If you can find one of these or the rosewood version at a reasonable price, BUY IT! you won't be sorry.
The one listed on this thread really went cheap!...I have very small hands
