Only reason I suggested a elec. hollowbody was because ya can play them acoustically and hear them since they are hollow. Granted, theyāre not as satisfying as a real acoustic guitar.
Agreed, you need a real acoustic. I got one for the same reason your looking. I wanted to play w/o power, preferably not forced w/o power though.
Great to hear.
Great name, Ziggy. I had a Ziggy too who has long since passed away. He was my blind cat and very, very special to me. I miss him. He made 19. My longest living cat fwiw.
Agreed. Hear in NE. I saw 83F on my thermometer yesterday. This morning it was 8F.
Just crazy weather for sure.
For sure. You most certainly do need a new amp too.
I had a 12w peavey audition 20. Still have it I guess but I gave it to my boy who donāt play. I thought it was better than nothing for him (me too for that matter), but not much better. I really didnāt like the tones of my 12w Peavey, hope yours sounds better than mine does.
Sounds like you have plenty good reasons to be going to the music store to me.
Go for it! And have a GAS!
Less than $1000 USD which hopefully would include a nicer amp I could use for both my electric guitars and an electro-acoustic. These are the guitars currently in my wish list to try out from low to high in price. The Breedlove lists for 999 but currently they have it on sale for $749. Of course, by the time I get there, who knows what anything will cost and I might go with something else entirely.
Yup. Iāve tried out a couple Breedloves at the my closet guitar Center last summer as well as a couple other acoustics that they have there. Thatās the day I came home with my pre-loved PRS Soap Box II instead. The local store only carries new Fenders and a few odd used cheap acoustics. Iām hoping I can fall in love with something I try at Sweetwater and that I can afford it!
That blue Ibanez is a ālookerā!!! My 2nd guitar was a blue Ibanez that sounds so sweet & better after all the years I have played it!
If youāre partial to PRS, my coworker swears that his SE series acoustic is the best player heās ever owned. They have quite a few in your range!
Good luck!!!
Well purely based on colour Iād want one of the 2 blue guitars. That said I seem to be a sucker for the word Taylor on my headstocks so I donāt know much about any of those guitars
I do agree with the advice about trying them. Itās partly about how they sound but also how they play. Try a barre chord or 2, are you fighting the guitar to get the notes ringing out?
I fully intend to utilize the F chord vigorously. Up the neck, too, since i know itās moveable, even if i canāt get it right past G! Iām so looking forward to this.
@Richard_N Iāve heard of them also not being effective, hard to say. I certainly didnāt expect a massive thunderstorm in February! I wrapped my arms around her and it helped. Iāll look into it, thanks.
@LunaRocket, as for the thunderstorm jacket: it works for some dogs, but not for all. For those for which it works, a blanket, ā¦ with some weight often has the same effect. Itās like babies getting calm when packed in tight: the pressure on the body has a calming effect - but for some dogs, itās not enough to calm them down.
