    Meg did a great job presenting. Really clear and her playing focused on showing the differences between the shapes/sizes. She's excellent at these

    Yes! I love the parlour guitar sound!

    Thanks - I was never sure of sizes and was sometimes confused by all the different names of the guitar size one down from the dreadnought - thinking they were different.
    I didn't know the Dreadnought size was relatively new and that the smaller parlor was a much older design.

    000 is my guitar size. Dreadnoughts are too bulky for me. It's a shame we don't have PMT stores in France...Thanks Meg for the review 🎶🎶🎶

    Great video. Always good to see women imparting guitar expertise. I have played and owned different size guitars…went with 000 concert sizes because I thought that’s what ladies are SUPPOSED to play …I learned on a Yamaha dread as a teenage girl in the 70’s and even though I’m petite under 5’2 I still prefer the sound of the bigger body. I don’t care if people think it looks too big. Just got a new Yamaha FG800J. It’s awesome 😊

    Interesting video which finally clears up the old "Is it a 3/4 or a parlor guitar?" argument I've been having with a mate. I lost 5 bucks (mine is a 3/4) but it was worth it! Knowledge is power.
    Cool new host, too. I hope you've taken over from Dagen. That guy makes me nervous... (Lower your dosage man!)

    Thank you, I'm trying to choose a guitar to buy online. I got one but it was so big. I'm sending it back.
    It would be really helpful to me to see width or depth of the different guitars.

    • @hetedeleambacht6608
      @hetedeleambacht6608 Рік тому +1

      hm, the best way is to go to a shop and try them out yourself so you can feel them....buying online......is only preferable if you re buying a guitar you tried beforehand, at least in my opninion

    • @LiveLoveLaugh102310
      @LiveLoveLaugh102310 2 роки тому

      Could be better for you to go smaller if you're a beginner and haven't had experience playing a musical instrument. Upgrade later on when you get more comfortable.

    hem, perhaps also women need a tad smaller size guitar...maybe good to have male and female size guitars?? I imagine they would become more costly but in terms of ergonomics and a long lasting carreer without arm problems it might be worth it?
