Adolph Lopez steel

no its nylon

steel strings for shure. The nice round sound comes from his 60's favino that has a wonderful aged sound

Silver wound steel

At least the top two are nylon, it's very clear if you look at the headstock

Not everyone thinks of success the same way. A true artist is only interested in mastering his or her craft and though it is nice to be appreciated, it is not the driving force behind it.

Correction: "average AMERICAN music listener" which most of them are, average I mean.

Like it or not, the average listener is where the money is...playing to just be liked by fellow players is also just average at any level. This is not negative just on the table, the way it is. Success is on many levels that's why I stated if that is what you desire thats fine.

D Cee you made your point yet with such mindset i have a hard time believing you can still write (as) interesting and honest music. It might be me as a player, but i think its negative. Anyway, this genre is liked by average listeners as well, i dont see why this'd fail to do that besides being a loose cover?

It is very common for a young player as yourself to misread intention when it comes down to ones style because it can be so personal. However, the list is far too extensive to list here of the number of artists once being told by someone (manager/producer/friend) to consider changes in some way or form. Upon review of my comment you will find a simple theme; what is it that you are seeking from this…is it a hobby, simple enjoyment, modest success, etc.? Any good manager/producer would request this prior to proceeding on the first day because this shapes the approach; only you can answer this. My first comment is correct and to the point, now it is up to you to consider your path and what it is you seek. Some want simple pleasure with no intention to perform while others seek progressive notoriety; it’s up to you but if there comes a day when you find all this time didn’t bring you to the level you desired remember you made that decision also remembering life is all about sacrifice and decisions but also learning on a daily basis based on what “you” perceive as success…pretty simple. I never wish anyone bad intentions and you are no different.
