Do you play (or want to learn to play):
  • acoustic blues?
  • Vaudeville-era pop/novelty tunes?
  • old-time country rhythm guitar?
  • American Songbook/Big Band-era standards?
  • '40s/50s pop?
  • Golden-era Broadway show tunes?
  • chord-solo jazz?
  • rhythm guitar with a streetcorner-style doo-wop group?
  • single-string solos with an acoustic duo/trio/quartet and need to be heard without plugging in?
  • "American classical guitar" - pick-style arrangements of well-known concert repertoire, or original 20th-century works composed in that genre?
If you answered in the affirmative to any of the above, buy the guitar - trust me, Gordon, you'll thank me later...
