When I started recording my Wechter Guitar, I noticed that there was a BIG difference between mic'ing a guitar and using a high powered Fishman Piezo or even...
I just had an LR Baggs IBeam Active installed in my Larrivee and It sounds great. The Active I Beam has a built in pre-tuned EQ and was plug and play ready...

You also should check out Gibson Acoustics the best sounding (HANDMADE) Guitars. We put elixer strings on our Gibson Guitars( they will smoke a Taylor) also...
I would love a gibson! but im in same boat as joe,,, i can afford a carvin i cannot even come close to paying what gibson wants Burt Joyner wrote:You also...
Joe If you can get your hands on a Lowden give it a go. They are hand made here in Norther Ireland and they are sweet. taylors are nice but why go for good...
I have a Taylor 310 CE. It isn't a top of the line Taylor but it is a very nice guitar. I've owned it for over two years now and it sounds better and better...
What about the higher end Martins? Some people have told me that Taylors are better. Any opinions on this? Thanks! ~Erin* There are 2 messages in this issue....
Taylors are known for their bright sound and great playabilty. Martins also have a signature sound all their own. One is not necessarily better than the other,...
My choice of guitars is usually somewhat off the beaten path. A few years ago I played a Wechter and have been sold on them ever since. You can check them out...
Hi Erin, If you're looking at that price range of guitars then despite what most people say, you're only looking at the differences in tone/ style... I think...
Besides a personal teacher and listening to old LPs at 16rpm.......what do you recommed for a good HOME Study program for guitar? Some potential guitar...

Trevor, how do you find your Brook? there are a couple up in London at the mo, but I'm not entirely convinced... Warmest Regards, Terence. ... From: Trevor...
Terence, I was looking for a "pro" quality acoustic for around £1250-£1500 and had explored all the normal "production" options. Brook had a number of very...
Ah... I played a number of Brooks and a number of used ones as well; it seems that the guitars have a sound that doesn't seem to mature. The older instruments ...
Hmm... Mine is certainly developing in tone as it ages - opening up a little bit - although it does retain the "basic" sound of the guitar. More like...
Trevor, I look at the tone now as well, I prefer to think that the guitar will age as well... the used guitars I have played are truely used as in had the heck...
... I have a Martin D28 - that's hand made perfection. No interest in Gibsons. If I was to look for another instrument I'd be looking at a real luthier and...
Me thinks there are Gibson reps visiting this site. Every time they post, it sounds like an advertisment. As for Gibson smoking the Taylor, or Martin for that...
... Good point. Nothing as repulsive as an unsolicited advert. I have a Yamaha FG160 ($104 with case in 1975) which has had many brands of string. The most...
after all the claims and counter claims (yes i put in my 2 cents) i think it all comes down to personal taste,,, maybe thats why there are so many different...
I recently transitioned back to playing acoustic guitar from only being an electric guitar player and noticed something VERY interesting, my hand gets sore...
