a couple of years ago...

actually, this is the one I wanted

Either would have been fine though- I love the aesthetics of them. But, I couldn't justify the price of one, especially the one I linked to on reverb. It was 745 bucks! And I actually justified 1350 for a Martin I just sold for less than I paid for it

The one in the video was 475 bucks

Now that I've graduated to the larger body guitars....

the above might still be on me radar... might being key... I have to blame it on "open mic" gig. The parlor body is fine for intimate environments. Open mic is hardly intimate...

Garland,

I had a Washburn Parlour guitar long time ago, I really liked the look of it, but never really loved the tone of it, it was very dry sounding, plus the volume was very low for a parlor guitar.

Takamine GY93E-Nat, Parlour Guitar, solid Spruce top.

RobertW,

Do you like the guitar, has it got a good tone, do you like playing it, has it got a good volume.
