I have a very basic question that I haven't seen addressed in one place. What is the difference in the different guitars such as L-00, OM etc? Is it just the size and why would you want one over the other?
Thanks
Mike

I found this article http://www.playguitarmagazine.com/artic ... TURE-1.asp
perhaps it answers your question. Why would you want one over the other? Think of it like dog breeds, they are all dogs, but some go yip, some go woof, some go grrrr, some fit in your lap comfortably. . . .
And howdy neighbor,
Rob
