Hi Adam,You play the vintage style guitar with such full,mellow,sweet notes.May I ask what picks you use and what is the 000-18's distress level? Thank you so much!
Hey Adam, You know of any pre war that could be bought right now? I’m in the market for one, but don’t know where to look, any pointers or direction you could provide? Or would you just suggest sending in a deposit and waiting ? Thanks
That's great! I'm in the market for my first upgrade and I"m looking seriously at the MT2 and MT2 Varnish. Looks like you get a lot more mando for the $ with the A styles... Happy pick'n and thanks! @@adambrown7112
Whenever I watch a comparison, I always look to see where the pick is relative to the sound hole. Too far back, more 'bite', too far up, much softer. Yours was very consistent so it makes a better comparison. The Collings sounds brighter and that's what I experienced when I test drove one years ago. The Martin sounded softer which is fine- what matters is what happens when the volume is turned up. Does the Collings get fatter, and the Martin get brighter? Perhaps they both meet in the middle when under stress. Those Texas boys have certainly carved-out a niche in a crowded market with the Collings. I'd pick either one and grin a lot. Nice video, great playing.
i can tell there is something missing on the colling, if this guys sells the the martin, you will miss the martin tone...if you sell the collings you will not miss it, kind of like an electric guitar tone if that sense ...that tone kind of irritates after a while...happened to me...jmtc
There was nothing special about that Martin, underwhelming in most metrics to be honest. That particular collings though is one of the best guitars I’ve ever played
I almost pulled the trigger on a new one of these a couple weeks ago.... but that price...dagnabit I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Maybe I will sell my Martin 1937 D-28 Authentic to raise some $$.
