I had Froggy SJ. Beautiful guitar. Wonderful neck. I wanted so bad to love her but after a year and a half I let her go. Of course, as with most guitars in my experience, another SJ could be a different story.

Aaahhh. This was/still is one of my favorite tunes, of his or anyone's. Came out in the early 80's as I recall. I still have my cassette (here in the kitchen even, next to the cassette/CD player!) that I made from a friends' CD in 1986.....

Playing a Froggy can be a surreal music experience. I’m a lucky person to have the privilege to own one.

I've owned or played a Santa Cruz, Huss & Dalton, Lowden and Bourgeous and while they all sounded wonderful, the FB I played last month was the first guitar that took my breath away.

My 2009 F12 Deluxe has an Adi top that is truly matured into something special. Can use the box for any style. In a word, versatile. And tone is absolutely fantastic. Will likely have to pry this one from my cold dead ….

I still love my 2003 Froggy Bottom H-12 deluxe as much as the day I bought in 2004.
But, it hasn't gotten a lot of playing time lately, I've been on a nylon string playing binge.

I bought a used Froggy K in Mahogany a month or so ago and it has me seriously considering selling all my other guitars to I can buy another Froggy - probably an H12. The tone just really clicked for me.
It's the only Froggy I've ever played, and I bought it based on the reputation FB has on this forum, and it was absolutely the best guitar related purchase I've made so far. |

I own a Froggy K and a C with an M currently under build. It’s always personal, but they are the very best guitars I’ve played. I owned an H12 for a few years and thought that was a stellar model as well.

Sonically, they don't belong in the same group with the other boutique makers. They bring something different (and in my opinion, more impressive) to the table.
