In response to Raf's response, I got the 0-16NY for Sue at a pawnshop in
Fort Worth for $200 back in the '80s. It was a very nice guitar and had a
very nice tone for the light strumming and fingerpicking Sue does. Wide
neck and short-scale mahogany back and sides. Sue forced me to sell it
when
I got a couple of other guitars and she got pissed and thought we needed
the
money. Silly girl. This was also before I came up with the "Buy her
something, get me something" System.
Wish I still had tha sweet little Martin but she really like her koa
Larrivee parlor now.
