    I'm a History nerd and a Music geek... this is *exactly* the kind of content I celebrate. Thanks!

      “That was not a classical…“ as if the differences between classical and non-classical guitars warrants a different “history” lesson. I like pmtv, but this is a shameful vid. If you’re a history nerd you should know that this video’s “history” is bs. Starting the acoustic guitar’s history in the 19th century is a revisionist farce, as the guitar, as we know it (not including it’s predecessors) goes back to at least 13th century Arabic Spain. Do your own research, with varied resources, and you’ll easily find better information. The confidence with which this presenter is reading this “history” is shocking. Very disappointing, pmtv. You’ve lost a fan with your level of glossing-over guitar history. What disrespect to serious guitarists and musicians in general.

    I would love a Martin but I can't afford it. I have a lovely Vintage brand mahogany dreadnought though, which is pretty nice. I might lower the action a bit.

    Man, I wish Gibson would bring back the j160e as a default model
