<i>Unless you have a very light hand, you don't want to strum a guitar that doesn't have a pick guard. I learned this the hard way - and with someone else's guitar!</i>

Now if the someone else was Willie Nelson you'd be OK...

Good advice.

In my experience there will come a point when a particular guitar will speak to you - "Me! Me! Me!" At that point it's time to open the wallet.

I have a serious jones for a Gibson Advanced Jumbo (which is really a fancy J-45 mostly). pretty guitar with a wonderful sound.
