Cool video, thanks for assembling this. That AF200 looks super clean inside and sounds great. I can only imagine how great it will be after a few decades of playing!

[@archtopheaven9549]

Glad you enjoyed it. I'm going to get round to producing more videos like this so stay tuned!

Archie! Thanks for using my music buddy! Great video. I love the JP20. And the GB100. If my hands weren’t “reformed” around larger Gibson necks, those would be the only guitars I’d own. Great stuff buddy. Joe D

Joe, it's not my fault you make great music :)

I had all 3 of these models. For me, the JP20 Joe Pass was the best feeling one. Also the best playability, it has an amazing neck! The FG100 is in my opinion better then the actual / or new AF200. I had also a 80’s AF200. That one was also not better as the FG100. The AF200 is great of course! But If I had to choose, I would go for a good shape vintage FG100. These are amazing! And versatile… an awesome guitar! Love it still.

I agree entirely. Thanks for watching and commenting Jim. I'll be doing more of these for other archtops; let's see if we agree again! Cheers.

@@archtopheaven9549 i like this kind of comparison 👍 … and don’t get me wrong about the AF200… they are beautiful guitars imo! 100% … I would just prefer to buy a vintage FG100 If I had to choose. They are all three beautiful 🤝👍💪 looking forward to see your next videos. Have a good time!

You measured the 11 fret neck width instead of the 12th.
