Why are you wanting a parlor guitar?  The guitar that I had posted about getting my granddaughter was a parlor guitar.  A really nice beginner guitar but I felt it probably would have been a little small for me.  And I'm a smaller guy.

And it's always difficult for people to make suggestions without having some idea what your budget, roughly, is.

LOL, @Blue Dog you're so humble!

In all seriousness that does look like a nice guitar.

Hey, Mantonanjin, I am looking at all the options, from dreadnought to parlor to fingerpick with so i can search them on youtube or play in stores before buying one.

It purpose is to play delta blues but also for the L&M fingerpicking course that i will follow in the future.

Thats why i keep all the options open. When it was only for delta blues i would look at all mahogany or sapele but it will be for folk and other stuff too. I think the most important part is that it has a very quick respons. Thanks for helping :)

@Limatje,

You could try 000 (triple 0) sized guitars. They have a smaller body size.

The best guitar I ever played (in the store) was the Martin 000-28EC Eric Clapton.
