Jonathan Lee replied to Dave Jones's discussion Walden G2070"Hi Folks,
I have to admit to being a big fan of the Cedar / Mah combination. It's like burgers and beer, or perhaps more like Fillet and Merlot.
Spruces are typically louder, particularly the Sitka and Adirondack varieties. however,…"

Jonathan Lee replied to FloridaGull's discussion What type of guitar would we like Walden to add to their lineup? in the group Walden Guitars"OK, I'll pipe in ... How about a Baritone? tuned BEADF#B ... You (guys) can play Beatles tunes, how about finally being able to sing them? Ever jam baritone with a standard guitar? Awesome & super fun. On my short list."
