I'm really taken with this. I've developed a thing lately for acoustics with a distinct design moving away from the traditional shape.
Have you been able to record anything with it yet?

.. or could be just give them a little while. Both black nylons and flats tend to settle in and sound better (IMO) after a few weeks.

They're about 6 years old and have been on my Wal all their life. Still ill wait and see
Well the ole tapewounds are on and they are an improvement in feel and terms of noise. Obvious loss of acoustic volume but that isn't a problem.
Still im not sure it's the sound I'm after. Or could be the bad technique
What strings have you all tried and liked?
I have a run of the mill fretted 4 string, it had old rounds on it, and then bronze EB acoustics but they're all too noisy and scratchy sounding. I'm thinking of using some tapewounds because they must be quieter.
Hahaha Fender must've really loved making that order
Yes Hello Pino here, could I order one of your finest basses please, but this time can you fit some proper pickups
Yes that's right, Gibson pickups. Pffft
Very retro aren't they? One of the better performances I've seen over the weekend. ( with dry feet from a very comfy sofa )
Now available on the red button
Should I mention Michael Manring
If you haven't already, you tube him.
If you're looking for different influences and other worldly techniques then you need to take a look.
However fitting this kind of playing into a 'band' setting is something else. Less is often more.
