Default NGD!

Reading eljay's NGD about the SJ200 Parlor, I looked into getting one for myself. I've always loved the SJ200 but I just can't play a guitar that jumbo. So when I saw that it was available as a parlor, I took a chance.

I'm glad I did. It has a wonderful sound and feel. The action needs a bit of adjusting (no big deal) but otherwise it's fantastic. I now have to find an equitable way to divide time between this and my L-00.

Now for the best part - pictures! Sorry they're sideways...

I love this guitar. I played one at CME. God willing, it will be my next. Congrats on a great buy.
