Furch/Stonebridge Millennium 20 series
Hi folks,
i'm quite interested in the Furch/Stonebridge's 20 series. Did you ever played one of these cedar/african mahogany guitars? What do you think of them? Are they a lot worse in comparison with the upper series? Unfortunately i can't play any of them; so i'm investigating a bit on the internet before an eventual order. Thank you in advance! Pietro |

Furch make an amazing guitar! Especially at the prices they charge.

I agree with that, my student's OM30SM doesn't sound worse than my OM32SM

Think the Furch lower end series are hands down the best made, best sounding guitars I've played at a comparable price point. I would definitely try to play the individual guitars though. The one I loved and bought would not have been my choice on paper. In particular try to compare the 20/21's at least unless your heart is set on cedar? Good luck!

I had a G23CC (cedar/cocobolo) that was a tremendous guitar, probably the best built guitar that I'll ever own.
But I got away from fingerpicking and sold it. Too bad for me, it was a beauty.

Never played a Furch that did not sound great.

Thank you again!
Therefore the OM 20 cm (maybe) will be my first important guitar. |

None of the Furch/Stonebridge series are "worse" than the other. I own a 21 series OM Spruce/Ovankol that is a stellar guitar. Anything from the 20 series and up will amaze you.

I have found D-40 amazing. I tried to talk them to make S-40/12, but no luck :-D |

You're entitled to your opinion. But dollar for dollar they are still better than a Taylor.

40 is quite like 20, just the back is arched laminate without braces, a bit like some old Guilds. |
