Love my new guitar
Introduction:
I was after a concert/parlour sized guitar. Having played a friend Guild which I adore it was really a no brainer. You won't see many any if any Guild M-20s on the second hand market, and there's a reason why - owners love them so much they won't part with them. And even when they do the delta between buying brand new is tiny, it seemed madness to risk a site like Reverb, for an instrument that will be part of my life, for the rest of my life.
Rationale: I paid the additional price to have the LR Baggs fitted by Thomann - throughout Thomman communicated to me clearly, and it was pleasantly surprised to arrive yesterday, a month earlier than anticipated.
Conclusion:
If you are looking for an all-mahogany concert/tenor guitar - there are two stand-out candidates - either the Martin 00-15m or the Guild M-20e. I opted for the former as I already own 000-15m and seemed silly duplicate something in my collection.

Excellent for backing vocals
Excellent playability, mellow, focused sound, very different from what I have used in the past. Medium oriented with warm lows and an overall vintage sound. I was looking for a guitar for singing - songwriting, couldn't be happier.
The construction is spot on, quality materials and great workmanship. Perfect factory setup, the guitar was ready to play straight out of the box.
If a warm, focused and quiet guitar is what you're looking for, the M-20 will tick all the boxes.
