So, I scored a decent acoustic guitar today on FB Marketplace. Unheard of to get a Cole Clark for under a grand. I got this for $800. I've never had a decent acoustic before and this one is pretty enough to live in the lounge room. It's 100 Fahrenheit outside today so it's a good day for air con and a new guitar.

The tone. Those are very warm sounding guitars.
Good snag.

Reminds me of the parlor Martin.

The wood grain on that guitar is tight. That's a dense lump of lumber.
I'd love to hear it played.

Are you going to relic it?
I'm going to hook it up to the tow bar for a couple of days.

Needsa bunch of sweetwater stickers.

If you play it lots and use oils on your fingers it will quickly acquire a patina.
Artificially aging the product looks as just that.
