Awesome, thanks for that! They're all very nice. Whose is the Martin?

I feel a bit embarrassed that I’m only just now starting to appreciate the world of acoustics. Can see a whole that would permit rabbits opening up

What you don’t get is the neck feel, and the guild wins big time there

I'm going to book an acoustic room for the next Auckland one. Weirdly enough they were drowned out by the two Marshall Superleads last time.

Whatever you do, NEVER click on this link. It's not so much a rabbit hole as a wormhole which distorts one's perceptions into considering US$15-20,000 is prefectly reasonable for a wooden box.
You can hear every guitar played and their recordings are superb.

It's my favourite porn site.

I found (apart from the shit playing) they the finger licking tone was more pleasing with the Martin

The tone was more pleasing to my ears :-)

We had one of those a few years ago, was great to be able to still have a conversation when playing was happening :-)
