Location: Louisville, OH 44641 | Hi Willa:
I don't have it yet. I discussed TJ's lay away plan with him. However, it'l looking promising that I will be able to pay it off quickly and get her on her way. I'm going to a week long "Blues Guitar Camp" in West Virginia July 18th thru the 23rd and I'm hoping to have this guitar with me for that. Keep your fingers crossed. |

Location: Louisville, OH 44641 | AWESOME GUITAR. Very easy to play and when you're as bad as me, that's really important! Tone is fabulous and the action is very nice. I always seem to like the guitars that have the frett board that floats above the sound board like this one. This guitar is nice and loud....and beautiful. A keeper to be sure.

Good luck, Stellar, and congrats to both Jims. They're great guitars and I'm sure that one's no exception. |

What strings do you put on the 1681? They sound wonderful and play like butter. Also, I plugged it in for the first time last night and was blown away. Fabulous, just fabulous. |

Location: Louisville, OH 44641 | ALSO....this is the second 1681 I've owned and I swear the other one was nice but didn't sound as sweet and didn't have the nice low action either. Nor did it have the floating frett board (at least, not as far as I can remember...which is only about 12 minutes lol). |
