Bubinga Size 1 guitar, a small guitar, almost a parlor guitar

Here's me enjoying a Size 1:

This is a wonderful fingerstyle guitar, easy to transport, easy to play, very nice sound.  I compared

this guitar to a Martin jumbo (J-42).  Guess what, this guitar blew away the Martin jumbo.  Cool

vintage style, based on early 20th century Martin Size 1 guitar.
