If he is setting the EQ's about the same as the Takamine and they sound totally different... well... thar ya go. It's not a slam on the board jockey, but if he/she is trying to use the "normal" acoustic guitar settings... it ain't gonna happen. | ||

They really sold me on Ovations. I just bought my 5th and will be using the 1778LX NEB for Praise and Worship. It will compliment my Martin CEO4 and Taylor 310ce. | ||

I wasn't part of it but I sure don't see anything wrong with a belief that would encourage someone to consider those less fortunate, as long as they don't bug us hopeless sinners, us sinners will wave good bye to them as they waft to their reward and we sink to our everlasting torment, now where did I put that jug, and no you can't share if you want to go to Heaven, Get your hands off my jug you hypocrite.

It is who you know and not what you do. It is the science of being called and learning to listen. A walk. Guitars, Music, People Associations or God;calling to you. How will you answer today? From an Andrew Peterson song: When the mandolin sang like a bird on the wing In the hands of Bill Monroe When Chet played guitar like a walk in the park Like a prodigal son coming home They spoke into being the work of their hands From the void of the wire and the wood And they stood on the stage And they sang and they played And they said that it was good And let there be light... | ||

In the distance there's a figure wearing a white suit and cowboy hat, playing a 1923 Lloyd Loar F5. "And who's that?" "oh, don't pay any attention to him - that's just God. He thinks he's Bill Monroe". | ||
