I just bought a 2018 D-41 and would agree 100%. My mom lives in Buchanan, next time I'm visiting I'll have to go check out the Music Outlet. Thanks for the info on them.

Great guitars!! You're welcome! It's a really neat shop with a fantastic selection of instruments. I'm going to avoid It from now on when we go to Pigeon Forge! Too much temptation in one spot!!

The best banjo killer you could find under $2k would be a used Martin D-Mahogany '09 (they pop up here every now and then). It's basically a D-18GE with a beautiful Alpine top. Also, a used D-18GE if you can find one in your price range. Then again, there's always the 12-fret (again, used) D-18VS...go big, or go home, as they say! (You might find a sitka HD-28V for $2k if you're really patient, but in my opinion not quite as good a match for what you're describing. Still a nice guitar!) I've owned lots of Martin dreads from cheap ones to Authentics. For what you're wanting, these 3 above will get you there. Good luck. |

Oh man, I missed this. Congrats...that IS a phenomenal guitar. Amazing how a guitar like that can make you rethink your budget. You'll never regret it. Congrats again.

I went to buy an HD-28 and my wife ended up paying for me to upgrade to the D-41 after she heard how much better it sounded than the 28’s.

My Bourgeois Slope D has Mahogany back/sides, so I didn't want another mahogany guitar. Those sinker hogs are AWESOME though.

The quote was upsized for those that have missed it multiple times and continue to suggest other models, when the purchase has been completed. Sorry to be "that guy". |

I never said I got it for $2000. My initial count of $2000 less was off a little, but Based on my conversations with a salesman there(Gruhn) who straight out told me that I could get my guitars cheaper elsewhere and that they don't discount, I got it for around $1400 less than I could've at Gruhn guitars. And yes, they do have those kind of prices at Music Outlet. The owner told me he'd rather make a little and move guitars versus having them hanging on his wall forever. But there are plenty of people who'll walk into Gruhn Guitars and pay their price just so they can say they bought one from there.
