I bought the Little Jane sight unseen because I'd tried a Furch Pioneer (same cedar/ mahogany wood combo) and bought it on spot. I've played all the smaller acoustics from Martin and Taylor, but this one is by far the best sounding- and that's before you even factor in the way it just comes apart and can be taken safely on your back for flights. I didn't want to go through the anxiety of checking in my instrument again, and this is the only solution to be able to take it on as hand luggage 100% of the time in every airline, every country.
Now regarding sound quality and playability: it's brilliant. I have to say I do think my Pioneer is more resonant and 'fuller', but not by a huge margin. The 24.2' scale is ideal for someone like me (a woman with smallish hands), and I'm a huge fan of the booster sound port on both my Furch guitars- they absolutely make a difference for the player. Calling this a 'travel guitar' is a bit reductive; it outperforms many full sized ones. It arrived pretty much perfectly set up, just like the advertising videos. I assembled it in under 2 mins, tuned it up, and it was ready to go- fantastic. This wasn't a surprise though- my Pioneer also was perfectly set up out of the box.
The backpack is nice, too, though if you're travelling bear in mind it can't fit a laptop- so make sure you account for a 2nd personal item/ hand baggage. On the whole: sounds great, plays very well, smells awesome, fulfils its stated function with minimal to no compromise. I pick this up and play all the time, even when stuck in the house. I'm very, very curious about the Violet and Blue series now- I just wish Furch shipped internationally for those as well.
