Guitar size "parlor", the standard size of 1900 comes the dreadnoughts in 1940: it's a small guitar that looks like a classic by far but is not one! She is fine, the woods are no frills, but especially the construction gives a hallucinatory projection template for this guitar. Couraging a wonderful guitar as the prize is the challenge!
It is manufactured LaPatrie, that Qubec, Canada.
The treble is not accessible trs (junction box 12) but not the point: it is a guitar roots of blues, she shines as picking open tuning and slide!
The rglages are perfect.
The neck profile is fairly flat, highly polished edges. Irrprochable finish, frets wonderful!

UTILIZATION

The handle is quite heavy compared to the weight of the body (lightweight stitching sleeve).
Access in acute is not convenient, but not on the agenda when you want a parlor!
It is lgre, easily transported, and the small padded bag more than correct is a plus.
For cons, I change the strings IMMEDIATE origins that sounded bad in the low rev: Martin 11-52 set of strings of rigor and go! The sound is balanced, sustain INESPRE for this size guitar! Much less than a Dreadnought, but low crystalline, with many rponse in the mid / high. You catch yourself playing on high volume!
Good also notes slide, open-tuning (or Sol R dploie she also its potential!

SOUNDS

I was looking really sound raspy, bluesy, that reminds me of Robert Johnson & co. I am not of the trip!

The only complaint I have is that it is not suitable to trs fluid solos, but it's all relative, is not a one Larrive 1000 !

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two weeks. I tried it in stores thinking they a toy I took a slap! I had all the money and I did not take long to find something to pay me!
It is largely the head Martin Parlor made in Mexico.
The report qualitprix is ​​exceptional.
I would do this choice! Why not finish diffrent!
