This review is from: Guild D-50 Bluegrass Special - Natural 6-string Rosewood Dreadnought w/ Deluxe Case
This is the nicest acoustic guitar I have ever played. It's sound is beautifully balanced across all six strings and the playability is excellent. This is a LOUD guitar and keeps up nicely with my loud vocals. I can't wait for this guitar to age 10 or 15 years. Then we'll really hear something special. The finish is beautiful and the bone saddle, nut and bridge pins all add to the great sound. The ebony fretboard is great to play on and feels fast. I am thrilled with this guitar. My best purchase ever!

Recording King Century Studio guitars illustrate the relentless pursuit of classic tone. No element has been overlooked in assembling one of the best sounding 12th fret guitars available. Each guitar is built with lighter bracing for more resonance, and the ebony pyramid bridge helps enable greater vibration from the hand-selected tops. The Nitrocellulose lacquer finish is dried for 8 weeks in order to insure that the lacquer is properly bonded to the wood. Both the gloss and matte finishes allow the guitars to sing powerfully and clearly. Recording King has built the ultimate in small-body guitars for the discerning player who is looking for supreme sound quality and excellence in construction.

This review is from: Recording King Century Studio Series 12th Fret OOO-Style Acoustic Guitar (Rosewood) (Electronics)
For whatever reason Amazon has this priced lower than the ROS-627 model. This ROS-647 model is identical to the 627 model except for some extra "bling" in the form of hand inlaid abalone. Normally the 647 is $200 or so more than the 627. Thus amazon has an awesome price on this guitar. Unless you don't want a flashy guitar, it's a no brainer to get this over the ROS-627.
The first guitar I was sent had a crack in the back. I couldn't tell if this was a crack in the wood or the lacquer. Either way, I sent it back. Unfortunately amazon made me pay the postage, but I expect to be re-imbursed. Rather than wait for a replacement I requested a refund and ordered a second guitar. The second one was perfect, though it did need a little humidification as the frets were a bit sharp. I recommend picking up an oasis case insert (I don't trust the ones that go in the guitar) for the winter months.
The guitar is beautiful, so beautiful in fact that I'm planning on getting a... Read more

The Cordoba C10 is another all solid wood guitar in the Iberia Series. With all solid Indian Rosewood back and sides and a solid Canadian Cedar or European Spruce top, the C10 has a deep and full-bodied tone reminiscent of vintage Spanish guitars. It also features a lightweight Spanish cedar neck with an Ebony fingerboard, standard scale length and nut width dimensions 650/52, and a nitrocellulose natural finish. The adjustable truss rod in the neck is the only exception to traditional Spanish design. Other details include a multi-layer Rosewood/Maple headstock veneer and an inlaid Mother of Pearl & Ebony "Esteso" weaved rosette inspired by a Domingo Esteso guitar of the 1920s. A Rosewood binding bordered by a red cherry stained Mahogany soundboard purfling compliments the vintage rosette. A Cordoba Polyfoam case with backpack shoulder straps is included."

This review is from: Cordoba C10 Classical Guitar, CD/IN (Electronics)
This is a really great guitar for the money, and definitely beats out the old Yamaha classical I used to have lying around. The solid woods were the biggest attractions for me in picking one up for myself, since my other old guitar is laminate I think so it sounds kinda stiff. But my C10 has a pretty and open sound and is very easy to play.
I saw the other review on here only giving this guitar "1 star", but it doesn't look like that person even tried out the C10 themselves (like they were sent a different guitar from Amazon?)- so i thought'd I'd put in my 2 cents since I can tell you i'm pretty pleased with mine!

I purchased the Cordoba C10 guitar in December 2009. First ...Cordoba sent the cheaper/ wrong version to me on two occasions. As of May 15, 2010... I was still unable to get the correct guitar and I cancelled the order after being asked to wait again. The national sales manager from Cordoba was not interested or unable to help me. I have eight (8) e-mails from him with empty promises.) On three occasions I also asked Amazon to look into this matter. I was prepared to accept a delay but now feel that I was deceived .......There are better companies to deal with that want you business!!!!!. Why would anyone buy a Cordoba Guitar?

Sometimes you just need to transport a kayak a small distance--either home from the store or to a close-by river. Enter the Malone deluxe kayak kit, which includes everything you need to haul a kayak on occasional short trips.
The kit's pair of 18-inch EVA foam blocks support up to 70 pounds.
The kayak kit comes with two universal-fit, 18-inch, non-skid laminate foam blocks to cushion the kayak in place while evenly distributing the weight of the kayak over the roof frame. This keeps the kayak from distributing excessive pressure on the roof. The blocks also feature universal V-shaped cutouts, ensuring a great fit for every kayak. To secure the kayak during transport, the kit includes two 9-foot block tie-down straps and bow and stern S-hook tie-downs. Best of all, the kit fits virtually any vehicle, including cars with round, square, or factory oval cross rails.
The deluxe kayak carrier kit--which supports up to 70 pounds--includes a carrying case for easy storage.

Deluxe kayak kit for hauling kayaks short distances
This review is from: Malone Deluxe Foam Block Universal Car Top Large Kayak Carrier Kit (Sports)
I bought this product as a cheap way to transport my kayak to local waterways. The only problem I had with it was that you have to be careful about getting debris underneath the foam pads as it could easily scratch your paint. But, if you don't really care about that then this is the perfect solution. After using it a couple times I find it pretty quick for getting the kayak on and off the roof. One thing you have to watch is the straps - if the straps outside the car are straight, flat and tight they will vibrate quite loudly even at mediocre speeds. To prevent this, just add a single twist in the strap and you won't hear anything.

This review is from: Malone Deluxe Foam Block Universal Car Top Large Kayak Carrier Kit (Sports)
We have an inflatable kayak (tandem) and wanted a car top carrier so as not to have to inflate it every time. I only wanted it for short trips. This is a very well made product and it is easy to use. It keeps our kayak from touching the hot roof of the car, if you place it properly. Unfortunately, while in Florida, the roof of the car was very, very hot in the sun. Sometimes the rubber surface on the bottom of the foam blocks melts a bit on the roof and leaves a smear on the roof. They are not scratches, just annoying smears that are difficult to remove later. I suggest you try to have the car in the shade before placing the kayak with the blocks on the roof. A good product indeed!

Great product for good price. Does everything as expected. I have a club cap Silverado with folding tonneau cover and I put 2 kayaks on the tonneau and this kayak carrier kit does just fine by holding kayak to foam rubber blocks and the extra straps hold kayak to truck bed.
