(sorted): bigger acoustic for bluegrass, strumming and such (dread, sj200, advanced jumbo etc)

bermudianbrit · January 30

Hi all,

This has been sorted following a visit to the very helpful @grBaldwin ;

As mentioned on a discussion thread, I’m on the lookout for an absolute cannon of an acoustic. Looking for the big bold strumming/bluegrass vibe. Ideal would be 1.75 nut width and a good pickup on board, but I am flexible on that.

I’m in Birmingham and if it’s a more exotic make I’d want to try it out, so no obscure builds if your ages away please

I’d nip round to guitarguitar and try one of their ad27e whilst they are still on offer, lovely big sound.

I have a Collings cj45 t which fits the bill or @brucegill has a Preston Thompson dma which also does the job

I now own the DMA, but I do have a mint SJ200 available

Nothing to do with me, but there's a "Pre War Guitar Co" model for sale on the "Acoustic Soundboard" forum.

I’ve got a Martin D18V with pickup if that’s of any interest.

Gibson 1941 J100 reissue of interest? Doesn't get much bigger than that!

I have a Collings DS2H mint 1 3/4 nut - or a Lowden Quilt Maple O35 series 45mm nut with a slightly fatter than usual neck -

Hi. I have a Preston Thompson D-EIR stunner that I may consider parting with.

I have a 1972 Martin D28 in the for sale section. Only up at Chesterfield
