I'm not sure that I agree with that statement. I would say that most standards played by jazz musicians were popular songs of the '40s. Of course, that included Broadway songs, but I wouldn't say that the plays and movies provided most of them. Just my speculation, of course. Many Broadway musicals made their way to the big screen at some point.

agree.

I am going for tunes that are played by jazz musicians which came from films/or Broadway musicals.

Yup, it is a completely different kettle of fish. I saw Bill Charlap's trio the other day. He played some tunes I was not familiar with. One was “Roundabout.” He said it used to be popular standard. I guess some standards go in and out of popularity with jazz musicians.

I was going for jazz standrards.

Jazz. The one I saw an image of was only $300.

I was thinking that one too.

Most standards played by musicians came from Hollywood movies or musicals. Is there one movie/musical that probably has provided more tunes than others?

This one was done too.

Maybe

What I've read online from those who've played these guitars that they aren't that good.

Being a lefty the choices are not that vast. Someone is selling one and may consider buying it, but I know not a thing about Stagg.
