If you ever get a chance to see the DVD of last years tour you'll see Matt Smith just play the snot out of an EliteT just like yours. THAT is an understatement, Brad! After I got to witness Matt melt that T last year, I was speechless and couldn't touch mine for a month for fear it might have found out how it really SHOULD be played.
JD - On Wendesday, when you get home and start to play it ... you won't be able to put it down. The Ts are magnificent instruments on their own merit, and unbelievable when you consider the price. |

Location: South of most, North of few | juniodude, I havn't seen many T's, but most of them I have seen are a grayish color. Yours is the nicest one I've seen. (kind a partial to black too) |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I forgot about that clip of Matt. JD, you should get the dvd, just for that. If anyone ever expresses any doubt about how great your guitar is, play that clip.
I doubt that any of the rest of you would be offended or surprised if I said Matt showed most everyone else up. Most everyone plays better than I do, so it's nice to see how the guitars should sound. |

Location: Utah | junio, you've got probably the best guitar available on a bang-for-the-buck basis! My daughter has a 1778T in red flame, and I steal it from her all the time. The Elite T is a great sounding and great playing guitar.
Try some Martin Marquis phosphor bronze light guage strings. They are my favorite on the daughter's guitar. |

Location: St Louis | My Elite has the black pebble finish as well but with a black bridge. Sounds great and looks awesome. My son calls it 'Venom'. I always get compliments on it...even from the "ovationhaters" crowd.
Great guitar. |
