If you can't afford a Santa Cruz 00-1929...
...but you want something like it (all Hog, 00-12 finger-picker), what do you get?
Waterloo WL-12 MH Alvarez Masterworks MPA66ESHB Martin 00-17 Something else? I'm thinking in the under $1750 and under range. And, I'm saving up for the Santa Cruz, too. :) |
My vote...Waterloo
|
Breedlove Frontier or USA series concertina body shape.

I was/am floored by the build quality, sound, and playing ease of this $459.00 guitar. The Baggs electronics are pretty good too. Fantastic value. (IMO) |
I have the Masterworks MAP66shb and it is a sweet guitar. Very responsive with good note separation and not boxy sounding at all. It does have 2 and 1/8” string spacing at the saddle which is a little crowded for finger style but 1 and 3/4” at the nut. 24” scale.
Martin 0017 would also be a great choice. Best, Jayne |

(Potential) answer to the OP’s question :
Which ever one sounds best ! |
Waterloo!!!

You can definitely find used 1929's for the same price or cheaper than a Martin 00-17. I'd personally just save the money that would be going to a placeholder guitar and put it towards your 1929 fund. Then you don't have to deal with selling a guitar once you get the one you really want.
That said, the Waterloo's are really nice and are priced well. |
Martin 00-17 Authentic 1931

I recently purchased a Waterloo WL-12 Mahogany and I couldn't be happier with it. Beautiful sound and sustain that goes on forever. I have no regrets.
