Product Description
A fantastic guitar for a modest price. It features a beautifully grained Honduran mahogany top and back, traditional dreadnought body shape, die-cast tuning machines, rosewood fretboard, and Martin strings. A fine guitar to get started on, or to stash at the office.

 Its a big red shiny apple of a guitar... May 8, 2010

I just got my Roque Honduran Mahogany Dreadnought a few hours ago and have been playing it for all of those three hours. Here are my thoughts. First, it arrived from Musician's Friend in excellent condition with no damage and no real manufacturing suprises except a slightly irregular staining of the lower fretboard. It's pretty minor and I can live with it. Otherwise its about as close to a pristine guitar as possible. It is a slightly short guitar compaired to other dreadnoughts I know (by about an inch.) The Mahogany is deep, rich and red. The finish is very shiny, which is not exactly to my taste, I would have been happier with a non-glossy finish, but some may like it (Rogue take note!). The voice of the guitar is bright and crisp, which you would expect of a guitar that is a virtual infant and has not yet had time to open up. The strings were okay, neither high nor low end. It does have its own unique voice however and I played a number of bluegrass tunes on it and was quite satisfied. The Rogue Mahogany guitar takes its place among my other acoustics and will get a thorough workout this Summer. Its a big red shiny apple of a guitar worth the $99.00 I paid for it. I think I'll hang onto this one.
 Damaged guitar February 12, 2010

Just got my guitar tonight and was so excited. Opened it up and saw a really good looking guitar, but moments later i noticed a glaring crack on the back of the guitar neck. The white bit that holds the strings in line at the top was also shifted out of place, which is probably the cause of the crack. Despite the good reviews this guitar has been getting, there are some issues with shoddy workmanship. Gonna call their customer service tomorrow to return it.
EDIT : Returned the guitar and they replaced it while paying for shipping, Got a new mint version a few days later. Really nice guitar and it's a steal for it's price too. Their customer service was helpful as well, bump up to 3 stars.
A beautiful body and a good sound. January 26, 2010

I ordered this in the first week of jan and it reached on time and in a cardboard box. The packing is good.
Out of the box the guitar wasn't in perfect tune but was the action was perfect. Not high and not too low. Bought the Korg tuner with it and they work perfect.
The looks and build - It has a beautiful,smooth glossy finish and looks great. The mahogany with its colour is a definite eye catcher, sets the guitar apart in a crowd. It definitely doesn't look cheap(which was a concern I had.) There is no patchy work visible and the overall finish of the guitar is very good. It is very holdable.
The sound - Its beautiful. Its deep and its rich. I have had a guitar for 2 yrs and I know that this one is definitely good. All the strings and frets sound clean. Tuning the guitar is easy. And I really like the action.
The strings can be changed as you wish your guitar to sound but the ones it came with are pretty decent.
All in all. For [...] bucks this is a really good guitar. Even if you buy this for more, say 300$-400$ you won't complain about it. It is a good guitar and its priced low. I bought it for an absolute beginner and he felt it easy to play on. A 5 star from me for this.
Just came in today.Very satisfied January 14, 2010

It's pretty hard these days to find an axe for $99 that's little more than a toy. This is not a toy. It has a warm, bright tone of an aged, high-quality guitar. It's also pretty to look at (I named it Beau for "hansome") except for the fretboard finish is somewhat sloppy and cheap looking. It feels pretty good tho, and the body fits comfortably in my lap, but maybe that's just becuase I'm used to playing big ole' dreadnoughts. The factory set-up was even above average, action and intonation are well set right out of the box. the only downside is that the gloss finish (it's there, even tho it doesn't show in these pictures) makes it kind of feel more like plastic than mahogany, but I got over it. The sound is there, it delivers the goods. I'm giving this a 5-star rating for value. It's a real, respectable acoustic for an unbelievable price.
