so posting porn is allowed now???I'm narrowing down and getting close to my acoustic guitar purchase. It's been about 5 years since I had a bunch of expensive acoustics and was teaching myself more jazz and really starting to get halfway decent again as a player. Fast forward from there and it's been all work and family stuff. But work is easing, the babies aren't babies anymore, and I've found a window to get back into it.
After a crapton of research, I'm leaning heavily towards a Froggy Bottom acoustic. I owned a P14 parlor model back in those playing days, and my god, for a small guitar, it resonated like a piano. Just incredible. Best instrument I've ever owned. Now, they're not cheap, but they're just incredible.
So, I'm focusing on one of the smaller body Froggy models, likely the P (parlor) models or a C (00, slightly larger) model. After a bunch of web research, I've narrowed the field to these -- a mix of different woods. A love rosewood, but what Froggy does with mahogany is amazing; I also love walnut in an acoustic, just so beautiful, but I do worry it'll sound too bright.
I don't think there are any acoustic nerds in here who are as nerdy about acoustics as I am, but just in case, links below, and comments welcomed.
