Really a gorgeous guitar! I've never had opportunity to play a Furch, but I really appreciate the story behind the name, and the history of the factory.
And...it the correct pronunciation "Furch" or "Furk"? I've heard it pronounced both ways. |

Thanks everyone for all the congrats. I'm fairly new around here, but feel this is a pretty nice group. And I wouldn't have known about Furch if it wasn't for you.

Guitars San Diego. Great little shop. They used to have a more traditional store front, but was told they downsized space (not sales) during covid since people weren't coming in anyways. I called ahead and had the owner's complete attention the entire time we were there. He pulled out each guitar out of their case as we discussed each one. He already knew what I was looking for from our phone conversation. I had a personal guitar guide completely focused on helping me find my perfect guitar. While small, he had more high end inventory than all my local stores put together. And every one he pulled out was pristine. So it was definitely worth the over 3hrs of driving. Didn't hurt that we stopped at one of our favorite wineries on the way home. Quote:

Thanks for the recommendations on strings. Seems I have a few options to try.

The store owner told me it's "Furk."

I have a Red Plus Gc-CR and I like it more each day. Just for fun, as you may know, there is a phenomenon where we tend to track down advertisements, reviews, endorsements for products AFTER we buy them as much as before. As such, you will enjoy this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGmBPW7c2Tg
