Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Took my Taylor to Alan Farrow today, the action at the dusty end was unplayable, looking forward to picking it up next week! Might get some more playing…

I've kinda permanently tuned my Larrivee down a tone from standard. Much easier to sing with, plus the lovely deeper notes to enjoy. Prolly needs a decent setup

I have a Sigma (i.e. Martin manufacturer) one and it's superb. Added an LR Baggs Anthem (almost the same price as the guitar) and it is absolutely on par with my "real" Martin for live work.

Good to know, cheers. Will give them a bit more of a look in.
