Cool way to play a Yamaha guitar

Derick , exactly! I was kind of aware there were different size guitars- cause I saw pros playin em on TV- as a matter of fact, the first one I bought after gettin out of the Navy ( was 22 or 23 when I decided to buy one) the one I bought was a dreadnought, but I believed it sounded like Trigger in Blue Eyes Cryin In the Rain fame- but, I never saw them when I went into a store- when I got me Fender Parlor was the first time I'd ever seen one, up close and personal, never mind touched one- when I started lookin on line holy smoke!

Derick,   I noticed how the depth does play a role when playing the Godin 5th avenue acoustic. I'd expected a - how to say? - "fuller" sound but didn't quite get the richness of sound I'd like.

I learned my first 3 chords on my brother's Hofner arch top, but my first guitar was a Goya Goliath (the Levin Comany's name for a dreadnought). A couple of years later I got a Gibson J-50, a slope shoulder dreadnought. after messing with electric (ES-175) for a few years, I bought a Yamaha FG-160, not exactly a dradnought, but almost. Then I got a D-18 and by 1975 or so, I got my keeper, a 1962 D-21.
All of these are pretty close to dreadnought size, but in 2011, I tried an LG1 in Ed's Music Workshop and got my first small body guitar. I use it more than any other when I'm leaving the house. The D-21 is on a stand next tomy computer in the music room/office, so it gets the most use at home, and the Goya is downstairs on a stand, so it gets somehome use as well, but I really like the little LG1.

Ya, I seem to recall the same thing.  All the acoustics seemed to be dreads back in the day.  Or at least most of them were.  What a difference a few decades makes eh?
