Location: Jet City | I recorded Chasen singing his newest tune with my new videocam. The guitar is mic-ed only, so here's a good example of a 1581's sound if you haven't had the pleasure. Un-named Song Please let him know what you think if so inclined. The song still needs a name, so feel free to input if you like. |

Location: Flahdaw | David Gates??? That was pretty far from anything Bread-like.
Good tune, Damon. I would have liked to have heard a new, different chord in between the two 1st verses. Otherwise, very nice.
Song name? Maybe "Thru The Rain", but Maria Carrie already has a song with that name

Location: Jet City | Bread huh? I wouldn't have made that connection either. Shit, did I just agree with Bob? I always kinda thought Rob Thomasish. Here he is on the same eve with the 1581 playing 'Take You Down'. Some may remember it from Bobbo's daily tune thread forever ago (I miss that). This is without the band. Much different vibe for sure... Take You Down

Great stuff. And Chasen's got a great sound too, Damon. I liked it. For whatever that's worth.

Location: Cicero, NY | I could be mistaken but that looked like either a Taylor or Maton headstock to me (both of which can go in that neighborhood). |

http://www.taylorguitars.com/guitars/acoustic/110ce must've been one of them quick disconnect, collapsable, EZ pack travel models.  |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I'm no Taylor expert, but I don't think there is any way a 110ce is "a $3000 guitar" like the other guy said in the video. And what was he doing holding onto the body and hitting the back of the headstock? |

OMA calls it "adjusting the action" (whatever THAT means...) |

Probably wasn't that exact model, just a definite family resemblance. Saw a 814ce listed for $3,199.99 at GC online that looks a lot like it too. |
