  • Surprisingly Wonderful
Color: Black Style: Satin
I'm a self-taught player who finally was able to pick-up a guitar after retirement. I'm certainly not a great player by any stretch, but I do enjoy doing what I do finding song chords and messing around with fingerstyle play. In this journey of about 10 years or so, I've played numerous guitars...no different than a lot of 'music store rats' trying out various guitars, some that we can afford, and many that we can't. I've played and owned Taylors and Martins and a number of other high reputation guitars. I only mention that to provide you, the reader, with a perspective. I've come to find out that people who own guitars don't just own one, or two...probably more like 5, or more. Guitars are very personal. We obviously are very picky about their sound projected, how they feel and play and numerous other things. And so we think we like a guitar, buy it and then find out perhaps it wasn't the best choice or perhaps, and I'll use the phrase that I've read from others so many times, 'it's time to thin the herd!' My guitar journey has brought me to some realizations. I'm not going to play professionally.....Ha! In fact, other than that very occasional, mostly infrequent opportunity, I play for me. Every now and then I will play around the campfire for others etc, but usually it's me and perhaps my poor wife hearing me behind the closed doors. Another realization. You don't have to spend ridiculous amounts of money to either get quality or an excellent sounding guitar. I've played and purchased a few Eastman guitars that were/are incredible, great sounding guitars at a fraction of the cost for those top brands. It seems some guitar players have as much interest in owning those top brands....sometimes several of them....in fact will list them on forums like badges of honor, which I find most interesting. How many guitars does a person need? And finally, I realize that I know what I like. I have a pretty decent ear, something that has helped me considerably on my journey. I know there are many, many folks much more skilled than I am at a lot of things. Additionally, as I mentioned, guitars are very personal and assessments of them very subjective. I've tried guitars in music stores that were reviewed extremely well by multiple sources, some 'professional', and I was struck by how much I disagreed with their assessments. And so, I come to this little guy that I purchased a week or so ago. A quick side-story that leads to this. I have a brother who seems to have a similar interest in learning to play the guitar. Had a rather large Yamaha and although it was a nice sounding instrument, I advised him for learning purposes perhaps he ought to think about a short-scaled, smaller guitar. I did a little research for him and found this Donner guitar. He didn't want to spend much money.....check. It had pretty strong reviews. Sold his Yamaha and bought the Donner. He shared that he loved the feel, the sound...was really happy with his purchase. One day, he visited and brought the guitar. I was so impressed with this little guitar I ordered one. My 'go to' guitar that is always at my fingertips in my office has many battle scars. It has had many accidents in its life, cracked in a few places, yet still sounding decent. And it will find a new home. My wife and I have learned in our 'older age' when we are considering a purchase of something....'One out...one in.' This guitar will serve me incredibly well, I'm sure. It is extremely comfortable to play with its reduced size. It's extremely lightweight and is just a pleasure to hold and play. You can have all those things going for you, however if it doesn't sound good to your ear, you're not going to want to play it and you'll be 'thinning the herd' again soon. I've often heard smaller guitars described as having limited, 'tinny' sound. I'm amazed at how balanced the sound is. It's rich, full with nice highs and I can't believe the low end on this thing. Perhaps this might be one thing some will not find appealing about it....the low end is significant and some may find it overwhelms the mids and highs. Again, personal preference here. I like it. Donner describes its ability to get this kind of sound is from its unique bracing...I'm also sure it's from the carbon sound board. The richness of its sound and sustain are so surprising. It also stays in tune remarkably well. The guitar seems to be of high quality. I've looked it over thoroughly and I don't notice anything about it that reveals its pricepoint. So, finally...price. How a guitar that I like as much as I do (read into this my above War and Peace novel about perspective!) can be had for less than $200 is beyond me. If you're a beginner, like my brother, or not; if you want a guitar that you don't have to worry about dinging or whatever because you want to travel with it, or just have it for daily playing, I'd strongly suggest you would consider this guitar. I honestly think you'll not be disappointed. ... show more

  • Dinner Rising G1 ... the marriage of carbon fiber & mahogany!
Color: Brown Style: Satin
I received this Donner Rising G1 yesterday, and I have to say that it is super light, beautifully finished, and very playable out of the box...with tuning of course. It has a nice, rich sound that projects nicely up & out. The styling in this guitar, with it's fit & finish, is striking ... The action is set low and light, feels just right. The tuners have held firm after six hours of play. The fret work is impeccable, smooth with rounded ends, and the neck is satiny with an easy glide. There are no electronics, strictly acoustic...which makes this instrument perfect for the park, the boat, camping & travel. The carbon fiber top gives this guitar added strength & durability and the gig bag that is provided makes this very portable. I must say, Donner hit a homer with one, no doubt!! ... show more

  • Very good tone. Rings out.
Color: Brown Style: Satin
Great guitar, for the price range it has an amazing sound and is easy to play. I have a full carbon fiber type acoustic guitar an Enya x4 mini that I paid more than twice as much for ,but it has terrible tone. This guitar is mostly wood with a carbon fiber top. It makes a difference. I've had it for about 3 months now and I'm still enjoying it. ... show more

  • Great sound and comfy neck. But got some buzzing and action issues
Color: Brown Style: Satin
For the price, the sound is great and better than a $400 Breedlove I returned. Comfortable neck and action. Stays in tune for the most part. My biggest issue is the action past the 12th fret. There's buzzing in some notes and specifically the 14th fret on the 4th string, where the 15th metal fret is too high and won't play the note.. it presses like it's on the 15th fret when I'm pressing the 14th (I forgot what this phenomenon is called). Basically it's playing the same note when pressing a different fret. I tried adjusting the saddle and neck but it didn't help. I think I can fix it by sanding down the metal fret or getting a new saddle but that shouldn't happen in the first place and that's an issue. ... show more

  • Worth the money
Color: Brown Style: Satin
I'm a beginner who has done some reading, and I have a good ruler and some feeler gauges. This is a small guitar -- bigger than 3/4 but small nonetheless. It is made with materials which match the description. It looks nice and sounds fine to my ear. Mine came properly set up. The truss rod functions. I adjusted it to check, but left it where it was originally with .080 relief at the 6th fret with the E strings compressed at the 1st and 15th frets. The nut/1st fret height was correct. Relief at the 12th fret in the playing position was 6/64 for the big E and slightly less for the little E. That was a tough thing to measure. There was no buzzing. I'm not sure about the tuners because the strings are still stretching after 2 days. It stayed in tune during a 10 minute practice session twice and was flat the next day twice. The strap is just OK but works. ... show more

  • Fretts out on multiple strings…..
Color: Black Style: Satin
OK beginner guitar. Multiple strings playing same note on consecutive fretts. Returned! Thought we were getting a refund to original form of payment but instead got Amazon account credit. So still have original payment on credit card to pay, but we can buy on account credit. That is not what was wanted. Wanted a refund to original credit card. We are so done with Amazon!!! ... show more
