HEY ridge,
Thanks for posting the question. As you know I've tended towards the smaller bodied guitars of late ( in fact I reckon if they get any smaller next I'll be playing a UKE...), but Saturday night we went to see a guy by the name of Adam McGrath, lead singer of Lytellton band "The Eastern"( no I havent been able to find a link to a video clip), who played an Epiphone copy of a Gibson Jumbo. It was so cool it got me thinking about Jumbo's and big guitars so on Sunday when the wife went out, I put a strap on the D55 and had a great thrash. I'd gone away from playing the D55 as I usually played sitting down and it was just too big, but with a strap on standing up it was fine !!!
I suppose you are looking for one to fingerpick, whereas I'm a Strummer (Hi Joe !!!), but I'd really have to play one first to see how they fit. Quite confusing all the different models though, also the GAD's of similar designation seem to be a different size again.
Cheers, Ian
