I've never been a fan of acoustics with a paint finish. Its fine on solids but somehow acoustics need to show woodgrain I think. Even semi's lose their appeal if painted a colour. I think this fender looks kind of tacky in that finish. It always looks to me that someone has purchased a badly marked secondhander and decided to paint it to hide the scratches.

Specs seem good but not my taste in accoustic flavour

No, for goodness sake.
Acoustics should be a nice natural, possibly with a bit of an ager on. Or sunburst.
Or Bill or George or anything but Sue.
