Parlor guitars have a special place in the history of American folk, blues, and Bluegrass music. They first appeared in the early 1900's, but have remained popular for their comfortable size and sweet tones. They are adaptable to just about every kind of American music. The design itself has been advanced by incremental innovations over the decades, until they are as modern as their bigger brother dreadnaught and concert guitars, and the Johnson JG-420 is no exception. It's a friendly feeling and sounding guitar you won't want to put down once you pick it up. You'll love this little Johnson guitar.
