If I had any plans to go down the rabbit hole and start buying guitars out of my own shop - and I don't - I'd probably start with this one. It's a truly dreamy fingerstyle guitar. But lucky for me, I've got a Larson-style guitar already. And this one is a real live Larson Bros guitar. Big ol' neck on it an a nice wide fingerboard. And the low end will rattle your lungs. So come on in and get your lungs rattled.
