It sounds phenomenal- actually has a VERY bright sound to it, which is what was missing from my old acoustic guitar (some piece of crap learners thing). It has an EQ on the pickup and I've actually toned the treble down a bit and given the bass a kick just to get the earthiness out on some songs.
The looper is fantastic. I'll post some demos soon, I've already worked out a couple awesome tunes with it. Still so much to learn though.
Wow fantastic Matt! Acoustic looks and sounds awesome. Funnily enough I went into the local music store today returning the bass I had rented for recording, and I said to my girlfriend as a joke "I'll probably see something I want to buy" and I saw a beautiful acoustic that I think I'm going to pick up on wednesday Yamaha dreadnought acoustic/electric with a cutaway not too different from yours!
And loopers are just awesome pieces of gear to have. You can write using them, jam with them, and just have fun with them. I do'nt know how many songs I've written using a looper.
You have an electric burnout right now, which is something really understandable - even desirable every now and then.
I wish I had my own 6 strings acoustic, the 12-strings is surely great but offers little versatility, and not all songs can be played there. Borrowing my grandfather's or a friend's acoustic is nice but not quite the same as having my own one. I might save for a Takamine like my grandfa's:
If he and The Boss play one, it's definitely good enough for me
That ZT teeeeempts me so much, dude... But no, I just got myself a huge, fatass valve amp and I couldn't explain another money waste. Best of lucks with the sell
There are few reviews about the Arrow mandolines but all of the existing ones are really positive, so for 85€ including gigbag this looks like a steal. Let's see how it turns out!
That looks pretty damn nice Sergio! Would love to hear what it sounds like if and when you do buy it!
As for the stuff I mentioned, I MIGHT keep the ZT. It's very handy when it comes to bringing it somewhere, so we'll see. But the M13 is for sure up for grabs
