Just a little too big
This non-OEM battery is not exactly the same size as the OEM Motorola GK-40. As a result, when I put it in my phone, it got kind of stuck. I couldn't get it out with just my fingernail, I needed to use the nail cleaner part of a fingernail clipper. It didn't damage the phone, but I would not recommend this non-OEM product.

I'm not kidding...I've had one of these for 45 years!!!
OK. As the title states...I have had THE SAME .50 red Tortex Fin pick for FORTY FIVE YEARS!!! And it's still intact! (I also have had the same Dunlop gray nylon pick for just as long.) When I told one of the guys at a local music store he said: "I can barely keep a pick for a week!" The red .50s seem to be harder to find, so I got some extra .50s. But I also wanted to try different thicknesses since my strumming has gotten smoother. This variety pack is just what the doctor ordered. And speaking of doctors...let's see...1 pick lasted 45 years...multiply by ten, carry the zero....OK. This pack should, by my calculations, last me 450 years!! Wohoooooooo!!! (Sometimes it's the simple things in life that really get me excited. Like a pick that's held up for over 4 decades.)

Special guitar
Now that I've had the opportunity to play this guitar for a few weeks I've been able to glean some of its special qualities. I'm generally not a huge fan of flame maple guitars because they tend to sound too bright for my taste, but in this smaller bodied guitar (more on that in a bit) it's not as blaring and actually provides some nice tonal balance.
One of the things that makes this guitar special is its "comfort" shaping. The wood where your arm reaches around to strum (or finger pick) is contoured, making it very easy to play. Also, the back up by the neck is contoured as well. (I don't know if it aids particularly in making the guitar more comfortable, but it looks sexy as all get out.) And speaking of the neck, it's asymmetrical -- meaning, where the neck moves up toward the head stock, it's not in the center, it's offset. I'm not sure why, or if it makes a big difference, but the neck is a nice thickness, and it's satin, so it plays fast. I also like the fact that there are no bridge pins to have to deal with. Like on an Ovation, the strings go directly up through the bridge. One less thing to have to deal with.
On a more critical note, while this guitar is classified as a thin body acoustic-electric, I'd say it's more of a fat body electric-acoustic, even though it only has a piezo pickup, not magnetic pickups like on an electric guitar. The reason I say that is because this guitar really shines when it's plugged in. When you just play it as an acoustic, it sounds okay but not really all that special. But when you plug it in it really shines.
Finally, I will be having a special bone nut and bone bridge made. The B string tends to make a sitar-like sound and that's often the result of either a high fret or else a nut that's been cut too wide. I will take it in to a local luthier and have it worked on. I'm sure when it's finished the action will be the best it can be with no buzzing or other anomalies, and it will play the way it was designed to be played. Even expensive guitars need some kind of setup so it's just par for the course.
All in all...this is a gorgeous guitar that is really unlike any other guitar I've ever played. It's comfortable, light weight, and it's got decent balanced sound unplugged and really full robust sound when plugged in. And once it's set up to the max it will most likely be my go to guitar. I can practice on it all day long and when it's plugged in the sound is great.
