The 3 series Red Label folk sized was lovely - couldn’t really fault it - I played some really good things around that price recently when I was shopping for my sons guitar and for an OMish mahogany guitar I think you’d struggle to find something much better (individual preferences aside)
The LS16 was odd - I think it might have had brand new strings on - it was all overly brash zither and sparkle - had a nice solid low ends though but the brash/bright high end was a distraction.
LJ26 was a new one on me - Japanese made - I’d not played that body shape before and it kind of surprised me - I’d expected (just based on the name ‘small jumbo’) it’d have a solid low end but if anything it was more restrained than the S/OMish sized ones so sounded a bit unbalanced to me (I seem to be erring more and more to a decent OM being a ‘balanced’ sound lately.
Red ones are better.
