This is the best demo I've ever seen. You used the entire neck and played chords that often cause buzz in cheaper guitars. Well done! Great playing. Hard to believe a guitar of this quality, costs so little. Thank you!
That Sounded Great ! Donner is making some really good guitars ! Purpleheart is an incredibly , originating from 23 species of large trees that can be found growing natively on the territory between Mexico and Brazil.
1:04 simple fix is to replace the Donner tuners (probably sealed gears) with aftermarket lightweight (open back) tuners. Easy to find and install yourself if you’re good with small hand tools. Makes a big difference in balance plus you can get better gear ratios.
PS: bought a travel-sized Donner a month ago and except for filing the fret sides (common with most budget imports due to climate changes during shipment) it sounds warm and beautiful. Worth reviewing if you’re into parlor guitars.
Wow yea I'm impressed. A student bought one, it is laminated top, purple heart is a type of wood but...not sure if that's actually what is in. Great video thanks!
Just got the dreadnought n i really like it. Fretboard n bridge wood is beautiful. Looks like ebony with grays n purples running thru it. The fret edges r beveled way too much n string spacing at saddle is to narrow which is typical on cheaper guitars. May have to refret the first five frets with a steeper bevel to accommodate a new nut with wider sting spacing. Absolutely love how it looks sounds n plays. Great for bluegrass. Strong deep bass n super chimey treble. Very loud. Just way different which makes it a good addition to my collection.
Bald, If you know what you are doing - any guitar - any price will sound good - thank you for this video- it shows people do not have to spend a lot to get a lot !
Wow, that's a great Donner Jumbo Guitar Cutaway 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 It's a shame Donner has discontinued this beautiful guitar, I was hoping to get one for as my travelling guitar 😢
Purple Heart wood is a good quality wood. DW drum uses it in some custom exotic drum shells. Great guitar review looking for a guitar for my daughter Thank you 😊.
Hey man I know this is going to sound nuts but did you ever hang around Rallies in Russell Kentucky besides that hell of a job on the review of the guitar such a beautiful compilation it definitely helped me make my decision on what acoustic I'm buying
I have been thinking about buying the DAG 1 dreadnought after I played the one my friend bought I have not seen the model you have I would really like to find one because it looks awesome and the sound to my ear is Fantastic by the way absolutely love the riff you played!! PEACE ✌
Hi Richard , would you prefer donner acoustic guitar over vangoa acoustic guitar? I am torn between the two. I saw one of you video about 6 months ago with the donner full mahogany all brown . I can't find that kind of model thou. More power to your channel.veey informative 👍
Thanks. Like a lot of these affordable instruments, it's great for the price. Better quality can be had for more money of course. At 159 it's really nice.
I bought the guitar after watching this. I had to return it. All the frets were not set properly, and needed to be leveled. The action was unplayable when first receiving the guitar (but I fixed). Unfortunately not all their guitars are like the one in the video. Thought everyone should know. It's a hit or miss.
It's hard to play barre chords on it, the neck is so thick. That's my only problem, because the distance between my thumb and fingers is so far, I have to put a LOT of pressure on the digits, I dunno if all acoustic guitars have the thick baseball bat D shaped necks??
