what are your thoughts on the string widths? the 15SM has slightly more space than the 15M. For finger style do you think it's worth to go that way or does the 000-15M do okay? I ask because I have a GPC-16E with spacing very similar to the 000-15M and occasionally I get a bit too close to other strings - some buzz.
Hi Sir, I would prefer a wider width for fingerstyle, something like that of the SM or similar so as not to have some buzz while playing. The 15M is will do just fine but it will take some getting used to due to a narrower nut width. In my experience it serves well and its so comfortable to use. I would suggest to experience them first in your local dealer before buying.
@@ed_music1834 yeah, if only they can keep an SM in stock. I think the closest one is 90 miles. I am going to go play a 000-15M tonight though. Exciting.
@@mikeward2922 90 miles isn't too far for a life guitar. I had to get mine online being a lefty. Sweetwater was good. The one I picked they found flaws and either offered me a discount or another SM that was in stock. I took the pristine one. My only regret is I liked the woodgrain better on my 1st choice, but the one I got is nice too.
Which of these guitars did you like? Let me know in the comments below.

Good comparison.
@@christianvidigalmiranda4229 Thank you for watching!
000-15SM which I bought. It just sounds so warm and I love the size of her. The D has a bigger sound for sure, but the 000 is a nice couch guitar.
@ Thank you sir, indeed the SM sounds warm and the size is rare. Have fun!

@mikeward2922 Thats a loong ride, better keep playing with the 15M then.

@@ed_music1834 Less than 2 hours. I live in Maine. Everything is a long ride.
000-15m seems to me to be the most balanced, it has a drier and clearer sound.
Hi Chris, thank you for watching. Yes I really like the tone of this one.
