In the market for a nice acoustic Grand Concert body guitar. The TE60 comes in at around the 1k price mark. I've watched videos, and the sound seems vibrant and clean for the price point. Anyone have any time playing this guitar or any specific thing to add in to help make the final choice?

Never played one, but IMHO you need to play it and hear it in person before a decision is made.

SE is their Chinese or Korean, correct?

Match them up against BlueRidge and Eastman before deciding.

Unless you are just “PRS Guy”. Which is fine.

I played a beat hell used Angelus SE at Guitar Center. Looked like it fell from a slow moving truck. Deep scratches and gouges, but sounded great.

Good value, yes, particularly if you buy used and let someone else take the resale depreciation. All the SE stuff I've been around, both acoustics and electrics, have been good workhorse tools at fair prices.

Good investment? No. I can't recall any Korean or Chinese factory/mass production line guitar that has significantly increased in appraised "vintage" value over time.

I bought the A10E from Dave’s guitar shop and it was like new. Great guitar.
