I don't think the L16s are all solid

I grabbed one.

The Matin GPCRSGT for $999 is also nice, I have that model also, but the Gibson sounds better.

Both come with hardshell cases.
Went looking for this, they are out of stock and I don't see anything about 18% off anywhere. Where did you find the 18% coupon?

The 16 series L’s are all solid. LL, LJ, and LS denote size.

+1.

Love mine. It's the real deal, nuanced, simple and balanced.

The LL is basically a dread - kinda in between a dread and a slope dread.

The LJ is a little jumbo. Dread size, but jumbo shaped.

The LS is an OM/000, more or less.

....I would agree with those descriptions, but the LL is definitely larger than a standard dread....which is why I think the LJ is closest in size to a standard dread....though shaped differently.....

You might consider a Breedlove KOA Concert Pursuit.
