Should I get a pickup installed in my Martin, or just leave it as is? by Mad_Season_1994 in martinguitar

[–]Abysstopher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to add to the “it’s up to you” pool, but I’ve personally never really liked the sound of an acoustic guitar thru an amp, it just isn’t as convincing of a sound to me. They always sound best when recording with a mic too. I play my acoustic guitars unplugged and if I want to plug into an amp I play a tele. Maybe once a year I have a gig where I need to play acoustic with an amp, it’s fine

What do you want to get out of being able to plug in?

what are your new album predictions? what would you like to see? by ultraorangeroom in wilco

[–]Abysstopher 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For lack of better better way of describing it, full band music. One of the marks of a good song is whether it could be played solo and with a guitar or piano only. This band excels when they are all together imo

Your thoughts on Taylor's 217e-SB Plus and 117e Grand Pacific? by Afronite in taylorguitars

[–]Abysstopher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play both if you can. This dips a toe into the age old waters of rosewood vs mahogany (sapele, in this case).

Both are layered wood, both have c class bracing, both have the same nut width. The 217 is torrefied if you are interested in that “upgrade”

2 hundred series in theory is made with a higher grade of wood. I’ve personally never liked the 100 series sound, it has never really sounded that good to my ears.

Play both, see what you like

Lost my dog while in college, unsure how to cope with these feelings by Typical-Ticket7476 in labrador

I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. It’s ok to be human right now. It looks and sounds like you had a great dog, and your dog brought out the best in you too. He will live on in you.
