I like to highlight lesser known guitars like this because most people think you have to spend $4000 on a Gibson to have a top flight guitar. That's just false. This beauty is in the $900 range, even with those high end tone woods. You can click the label "Guitar Models" at the bottom of this post to see other guitars this site has spotlighted.
Thanks for stopping by the Acoustic Spotlight Zone.
I think the LAG are great guitars. I played one of these: "LAG Tramontane GLAT333JCE Jumbo Satin Electro-Acoustic" recently and I was very impressed. The electronics come with presets for different situations and they are all very usable. In fact I've got one earmarked on ebay and if I happened to find myself with the right amount of money in Paypal I'd click Buy it Now without a doubt and would be happy to use this guitar as my main gigging guitar.
