Today is quite the special day here at Folklore.

Our very own furry shop greeter is turning 7 years old!

She’s the happiest, softest, best all around employee you could ever ask for, especially since she works for treats.

Happy Birthday, Folklore Frida! 💜🐾

Well, may have fallen in love again…

Just unboxed this brand new Eastman PCH2-OM Orchestra in the Classic finish, and it’s absolutely incredible!

It features a solid thermo-cure Sitka spruce top, laminate rosewood back and sides, Okoume neck, and it sounds and play amazingly for a guitar that’s only $499 with a super nice soft case!
