There has been a bit of discussion about all mahogany guitars recently. This vid is from a few years ago and features an all mahogany Fender 000. I believe there have been several iterations of the Paramount series of guitars over recent years. I never associate good acoustics with the Fender brand, but if you think about it they did own Guild for a while. This model seems quite impressive - anybody ever played one?

They do a parlor - although this version may be discontinued (there must be some about though). This vid dates from around 2017 :-

StrayMan - that has been my view for a long time. Nevertheless I've read some good reviews of all solid Fender acoustics, although I haven't played even one so I can't exactly recommend them. This isn't going to change anyone's opinion, but did set me thinking :-
