Und einige Auszüge aus den Harmony-Central-Bewertungen:
The acoustic/electric EG-523SC features a robust Jumbo body with ornate Abalone inlay on the fingerboard and around the soundhole, accentuated pickguard, binding around the fingerboard (black) as well as the body's ribs (white). All of this, with a solid spruce top and figured maple ribs and back. The neck is a smooth three-piece that plays excellently.
I'm not sure why they chose to forego any headstock binding or a second
strap button near the neck. The bridge is split between the B and G
strings. This allows for the low E, A, D, and G to be set to a different action than the B and high E. This is great if you need lower action for solos, but still prefer a higher action for sound projection on the lower register strings

For a factory made instrument, this is tops. The workmanship is really
superb and quite articulate, not what you expect from most Korean
instruments. I was impressed at the clean, sealed edges around the
inlay in the fingerboard...typically a sign of good craftsmanship and
rare in factory guitars.
