Location: closely held secret		I've read so much here about the legendary FD-14.
Is the Folklore 1114 anywhere near it's quality?

Location: Phoenix AZ		The 1114 is a 12-fret wide neck slothead with a center soundhole and lyrachord bowl. Similarity ends there. Oh yeah, they both have strap buttons.

Trust me, I have owned them both side by side. The 1114 is a great instrument in its own right, especially for the price. But it is not even in the same universe as the FD14 sonically.

Location: Phoenix AZ		I'm not saying you should let it pass. Maybe for $300 it's a great guitar for you. But if you expect it to be in the same league as FD-14 you will be disappointed. Dave

Location: closely held secret		Naw, I'm very happy with the sound of my 6778LX, and running out of room on my wall. I was just thinking about it as a kickaround. I need to save up for a viper anyways.
Thanks for the advice, Dave! Look forward to meeting you next month!

You looking for an electric Viper?

Got a nice selection in my gallery of Vipers and Viper III's that I am eventually gonna post on ebay. Choose one early and avoid the rush!

Location: closely held secret		Thanks, I'll take a look, Stephen. Don't have the cash yet, probably going to sell my strat and some various pedals and such to raise some money first.


John.
