Hi, I am considering purchasing a Fullerton Guitar but I am stuck on which one to buy because I do not know which one is of the highest quality. I am basically deciding between the Fullerton Batsto, Fullerton Crosswick, and the Fullerton Parkdale. If you guys could help me out in telling me which one sounds the best, and is of the highest quality that would be great, or atleast if you could tell me what you think of your guitar in comparison to others?



Thanks guys!

You'd better order very soon!  The last Fullerton guitars are selling out fast.  I'm sorry to say, the Fullerton Batso (solid spruce top, rosewood back and sides), Crosswick (except for B-stock) and Parkdale are all sold out.  Onlyleft-hander models of the Batso and Crosswick are still available.

The last 3 Fullerton steel string acoustics still available are:

The Elwood auditorium (solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides), also has a 10% discount, so your total cost is $180.

The Steelman dreadnought (solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides), which is $100, minus an additional 10% discount, so your total cost is $90.

The Crosswick auditorium acoustic-electric (solid spruce top, built-in pickup & tuner, cutaway body) is $100, minus 10% = $90.  ("B-stock" means that the guitar has cosmetic flaws, scratches, etc.)

http://www.music123.com/Fullerton-Crosswick-Concert-----Acoustic-Electric-Guitar-(B-Stock)-i751336.music

The Elwood is a solid wood (probably better-sounding) instrument, but has a smaller body style, and it won't provide you the booming bass of the larger dreadnought guitar (Steelman).  If you're not a bluegrass player or if you don't play a style of music that needs the big bass boom, go with the Elwood.  Sure, it costs more, but at $180, you won't find anything close to that quality for the price.  Richard Hefner, our site host, has recently bought an Elwood.   If you need a built-in pickup and plan to plug your guitar into an amplifier, and you can live with scratches and other B-stock flaws, then there is the Crosswick. 

Hurry up and order!
