The Loar Small Body Acoustic Guitar, Sunburst Finish

Product Review

Inspired by the incredible craftsmanship and design of the Golden Age, The Loar LH-200 is an acoustic guitar with a classic pre-war body style, outstanding features, and a strong, full tone. From the vintage sunburst finish to the open gear butterbean tuners, The LH-200 is modeled after small-bodied flat top acoustic guitars from the 1930’s. The guitar features a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, a mahogany neck, ivory-colored body binding and a rosewood fretboard. This model also features a bound peghead with a delicate fern inlay in abalone and M.O.P. by veteran designer Greg Rich. Following early 20th century bracing patterns, the LH-200 has an incredibly lightweight body that delivers outstanding projection. The LH-200’s smaller body size is great for songwriters and touring musicians who want a great sounding acoustic guitar to take to the stage. The guitar’s beautiful looks and vintage features are appealing for all playing styles.

This review is from: The Loar Small Body Acoustic Guitar, Sunburst Finish (Electronics)

This Loar LH-200 is an outstanding value. It has great tone and mine was set up fine right out of the box for fingerstyle and blues playing anyways. The body chamber and top resonate near low A like many smaller body guitars. Pick guard came loose in the box so you can leave it off as I plan to. Nicely finished but not perfect, but close. Label reads made in China. I really like the overall shape, feel, look and sound of this guitar. It doesn't sound like a $4k Santa Cruz but certainly much much better than I thought possible for the $330 price tag. Fits fine in the Silver Creek 000 case which is also a good value in my opinion. Quick shipping from Amazon.com as usual.
