Orangewood Rey Cutaway Style Acoustic Guitar with Mahogany Top

One of my best purchase! Sounds so rich. Best for outdoor jamming and even recording. Good travelling as well. Value for money. Looks so professional and gig bag quality is also great.

Recommended. This is the very best acoustic guitar you could ever get for this price. Pros: Being somewhat of a collector, I was impressed with the build quality and professional setup of this guitar. The professional luthier setup on this guitar is something you normally have to do yourself after buying even a top name brand expensive guitar in most cases, and can easily cost as much as $250 (US). This is a unique selling point for Orangewood guitars that sets them apart from everyone else. Easy to play. I have never purchased a guitar with this amount of attention or effort placed on the setup and tweaking done to the guitar before. The action was set much lower than most off the shelf guitars, making it extremely easy to play. No problems with fret sprout. The guitar carry bag it ships in is a lot thicker and more protective than most. Beautiful full sounding acoustic guitar. Quality stain finish. Better than most higher priced Brand names. Really impressed with the neck and fretwork on these guitars. Hold tune, no slippage. Cons: Extremely thin top which adds to the sound and tone trades off stiffness of the top to support the tension of the strings on the bridge. Even though there is a support insert under the bridge, the string tension may cause a slight belly bulge just below the bridge. Shipping: Orangewood ships directly from their facility in California. These guitars are not sold through distributors, so you can't walk in and try one out before purchase. Mine arrived with the Orangewood shipping box torn open and crushed to the shape of the guitar from every angle. Needless to say, my heart dropped a beat when I saw this, but the padding of the soft carry case seemed to be enough to protect the guitar. There was a small smudge mark on the face of the guitar that was easily polished out. This is a shipper problem and not really Orangewoods fault. This was also during the pandemic so.... The guitar ships with standard steel strings. On replacement of the strings I noticed ALL the tuning peg nuts were floppy loose. OOPS. Missed in setup? This guitar has no pickup. But this you clearly knew at purchase. There is the next model up that has a great pickup and is still worth the price.

Product got delivered at usual time. Box was a bit damaged but nothing on the guitar. Gig bag was of good quality. Guitar is just superb. Nice playability. Need to tune before starting but the setup was clean. Nice clean tones from the guitar. Overall happy with the purchase.

I purchased this guitar because I wanted to have a cheaper guitar in my classroom at school. The craftsmanship is excellent and the sound is even better. I like the matte finish and the binding is almost seamless. The action is low enough and it really plays quite well. It stays in tune, even when I bend notes. This Orangewood guitar is fine for all levels of players. Seriously, I don't know who thought crappy cheap guitars are prefect for beginners. They are not. I am very happy with this purchase. I have been playing guitar for over 32 years and this guitar is a steal!

First I want to say that I never liked acoustic guitars because I was looking for a certain sound & couldn't find any acoustic that I really liked. I've tried the PRS entry level acoustics, Washburn, Fender, Ibanez & the only brand that came close was Yamaha acoustics, mind you I'm talking about $200-$900 range acoustic guitars. All that said I took a chance after watching many many YouTube videos & reading the reviews I decided to buy the Rey model without any electronics but built with a cutaway. This guitar is a steal of a deal!!! I can't stress or say enough good things about this acoustic. For the price range below $150 this guitar has everything that I want in it's design. 1. The grain on it's dark mahogany body is brought out by the double binding on the front & back of the body. It also has binding on the neck. 2. It has two pins for the guitar strap so you don't have to buy the extra accessory that loops around the bottom of the headstock or the top of the neck. 3. The set up that was sent to me was superb. It has Erie Ball Earthwound strings. The action on the neck is one of my most important points that I think most companies lack providing. All the frets except for one was a little sharp but nothing that was going to cut up my fingers. It plays like smooth silky butter. I know some things can be fixed if it wasn't sent to me properly but that is what sets apart certain brands that actually take the time to inspect before they send out the instrument. To me that says a lot about caring for the customer when you don't have to do the tedious work because that's why you paid for the instrument to arrive already set up & not have to worry about paying a tech to fix the frets or straighten out a bad twisted warped neck. Overall the design is excellent from workable tuning heads, no blemishes on the body or dirty spots on the binding. The bracing brackets inside are flawless. It comes with a deluxe type padded gigbag with shoulderstraps & inside the front pocket there's a scratch guard or pickguard that you can stick on. If & when my Orangewood Rey falls apart after decades of playing I will definitely buy another. I highly recommend anyone buying an Orangewood acoustic guitar.
