An excellent guitar.
I bought this to replace my Godin 5th Avenue which has been my regular go-to instrument for playing acoustic rhythm guitar with big bands for the last half-decade or so. The Godin guitar is a very good instrument and has a very punchy sound with plenty of bark. I would say that the Loar, which I have now used a handful of times in similar situations, is a noticeable step up. It has a fuller, rounder tone and will perform well in a wider range of situations including solo guitar and small guitar combos. Whereas with the Godin I found myself hitting it as hard as I good all the time the Loar has a wider dynamic range and benefits from being played softer at times. I would recommend this guitar to anyone who is looking to play unamplified jazz, especially with a big band.
