Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
The true-to-tradition tone coupled with modern structural stability are a match made in heaven--all of that glorious, birdsong, vintage tone without any of the snake-in-the-grass issues or quirks waiting to strike your wallet. Couch composers and small-room serenaders are going to adore the warm, rich tonal voice that graces the precision and sensitivity native to the bodystyle. If the comfort of the Parlors is appealling but you're after a bit more oomph and presence, this Sitka/Hog 0 is just the ticket!
