1946 Epiphone Spartan

This guitar is my main squeeze. I spent 20 years trying to find the right archtop and when my playing was ready it walked into my life. These are smaller bodied guitars, I think 16". No tubbiness to the sound and tons of VOLUME! I've played a $10,000 L-5 from the 30's that just didn't do it like this guitar does. Other super expensive guitars as well don't hold a candle to this one. I think old Epis are the best value on the market. Built in NYC!

Best thing about a great instrument for me is they tell you the song, it just pours out.
I'm one blessed guitar player! JB
