My Acoustic Search, The Finale(PIC)

[PUCKBOY99]

Alright fellas...lotsa cliche's here:

All good things come to those who wait
Seek & ye shall find
Patience is a virtue
Money talks, B.S. walks..........

Anyway, I finally settled upon a beautiful acoustic that I was able to nail cheap cheap! It's brand new, but was knocked down because of a few finish flaws...all on the back of the headstock. They look like finger smudges in the lacquer, which I could care less about.

So, I wanted to take some pics to post, but the lens motor on my digital camera seems to have taken a crap....but here's what I got:

*******************THE GUILD D-55 *********************

It's taking me a bit to get used to the quality of this guitar as opposed to my Applause AE-68....needless to say, BIG difference! The tone is so even...not too bright/not too low. One of those items that the more you play it, the more you WANNA play.

I'm excited............can I get a little love????!!!!!! :arms:

Terry,
In the last 15 years, the two acoustics that really, really surpised me were an Alvarez-Yairi, and a Guild Jumbo. The Guild had a beautiful ringing tone that I didn't hear in their previous guitars. I can only hope that yours gets that great tone.

I recently had some work done on my Martin, so I'm gonna get back into playing it to work on songs. I have a different mind set on acoustic, but I learn things playing both electric and acoustic that compliment each other, especially as far as right hand technique is concerned.

Enjoy, bro!

Nothin' better than bringing it home and not being able to stop playing it!

I agree. Alvarez and Guild are two acoustic companies that sound superior to the many, many others in my opinion. I think you did VERY well. Guild acoustics will give you joy for years and years to come, they are built very well. Enjoy! :13:

Thanks a lot fellas!!! Yeah, it is super sweet. One of those "last a lifetime" purchases.

Now that I've got the acoustic GAS out of my system, the next thing up is some type of recording software so I can join the "Clip Crew" ! :friday: :dance:
