I found one of these and bought today. I had not even seen this video. You are a really good player and that guitar shows your talent. Please stop talking about about what you don't know. You made music. I have been fingerpicking since I was in High School....it is really easy....just pick the pretty notes. If you hear harsh....start over and pick the nice ones. I am now 60 years young and finger pick even with a pick in my hand.....and you are kinda doing that already. I love this silver creek T170 and I was not even lookin for a guitar the day I picked it up to wait to talk to shop owner....my mistake?

Both of you sound great! Do you remember what tremolo pedal you were using on this? Or was that amp tremolo/vibrato?

Excellent!

How would you rate this preamp compared to the fishman tonedeq preamp? Form watching many vids I feel this one man offer a slightly less fizzy tone. I know no preamp is perfect, as acoustic guitar sound consists of so much and plugged in they are rarely an impeccable sound no matter what. But that being said, yeah.. would you rate the venue as the best preamp?

Excellent and insightful review, will definitely buy one now, thanks

The part of the video I don’t like is when you mention you have a southern jumbo and don’t let us see or hear it. Party foul! But very helpful video. Thanks!

Nice - what are the strings tuned to

Is the buzz from the lap steel or just the amp?

Horrible sound, not natural wood sound. Sound is so over process

My dad has a Spectra 210. Cool old amp. Bought it brand new in 83 or so. Got rid of his fender twin and this amp was amazing.

I was hoping you would give us a sample with the unit on and off..

Excellent . sounds great.

dumb question: you mentioned you have a lyric onboard microphone in your gibson. are you running THAT through the LR Baggs unit, or the signal from a pickup, or both? If both, I'm curious how the mic and pickup sound are combined - are both signals combined before leaving the guitar, or are they wired separately? Is this the kind of thing that requires a specially made unit installed inside the guitar? thank you!

Thank you i have been using this and thought i was going insane because the tuner is not acurate i couldnt figure it out now it makes sense

That ending lick was tasty

Spectra 60-t. I have one made by JMF before they were sold to Dean Markley. Finding information on them is not easy!

This was an excellent review. Thank you!

This player is very bad. His banjo sounds like a saucepan !

So it’s been seven years but why not comment anyway. Nice song and good tone. Been watching some videos hoping to start gigging but too much time working in tall buildings and not enough time to practice. Nice work!

So different from spruce!

That is a rare e10ss on the left! Haven't seen one with that color finish. Looks and sounds great!

Crossroads yeah...G no doubr

had an apollo twin duo never got a great sound with it are you recording direct from apollo to your imac? what are you monitoring sound through in post? when you do the video or is it just slapped together in video editiing software like final cut pro?

How's this guitar holding up these days?

why do you strum so far behind the sound hole?

After threading around on Harmony's in general and H165 - 162 and Sovereigns particularly, It seems these are a great base to work from to get a period vintage all solid bodied guitar.

Also won’t a power brick power this lr Baggs ??

Hi what cable brands and cables did you use to record this to your computer???

How do you set the knobs on your Martin? I have the same pickup system and it sounds a bit thin to me. How do you set the tone and enhance controls? Also how do you set the EQ on the Venue for the Martin and does it make it sound fuller?

I hear a lot of Colter Walls style of playing in this

Very good demo on your Venue. I recently had a K&K pick-up installed on my Morgan guitar and in the process of deciding whether or to buy a Venue DI. Your demo has helped alot. Thanks.

Dang bro, you are really good. I guess that’s more like a Blue Grass style? Idk but it sounds really good. I feel the way you play would make for some good church hymn playing.

Best review of this product.

seems to be a ringing around 1385Hz during guitar demo

Thanks for the video, I was wondering if you had issues with your guitar being too hot when it reaches the mixer, as the Lyric pickup and Venue DI are both active? I agree with the tuner, I find my snark to be much more accurate... regardless the mute function is handy.

very nice video, can you upload a pic where the eq setup is for the lyric? Many thanks!

Thank you for this excellent video! I was hoping to hear how plugging in a guitar with a K & K pickup would sound... fantastic! Thanks for the clear and honest demo.

Great jobe, thnxxx for posting :)))) cheers

Awesome work! Please do mr banker again..this time with the mic. You have some great talent. Keep it up!

I want it because I'm collecting airsoft spring pistols and I'm a fan of TWD

Dude what the F*** os your problem, all you can do with this amp is talk. I need to know what the F** it sounds like So do us all a vavor, take this fricken video out of the way so it wont get in the way of my search's I dont have time to just listen to you talk.

Proud owner of the same model, year and everything.

You have to look up the JMF amps......grandfather to Dean Markley

NICE - three very well spent hours!

I have that same harmony acoustic - slide sounds great on it!

Why does the title say spring revolver and the box says air type

Believe, man. You already, in this video, play much better than a lot of non sense guys with years of lap steel practice. And you just had three hours of practice.Congrats.
