Paul Languedoc: new G4 model

Paul Languedoc G4

Paul Languedoc, fabled hollow body guitar maker, has a new model: the G4:

The G4 is designed to have a little tighter sound than the G2, with a smaller sound cavity, a single sound hole, and a slimed down profile, though it's still very responsive. Also the construction is a bit simpler so I'll be able to offer it for somewhat less.
