I have seen a number of these tests, not once have the Seagull guitars have been tested. I play with a number of good players who have Seagull and they are really good despite being in the $600.00 dollar range. I have a Seagull mini jumbo really clear and has a massive and clean bottom end. I play with people who have Martin's, and I am not ashamed...

Taylor! They sound somewhat alike though the edge goes to Taylor , but the electronics system on the Taylor is vastly superior. The playability and setup of the Taylor is much better. The Taylor has more cache and so the resale is much better. The Taylor comes with a nice deluxe gig bag. No comparison with the Cort.
@77guitarts2226 күн бұрын
You're right about the resale value for the Taylor, but concerning built quality, the 114 is laminated B&S, compared to the All-Solid woods from Cort O6, Torrified Top, High End appointments like golden Grover open tunners, Frets really well done, rounded at corners, and Thin UV High gloss finish compared to the Satin on the Taylor. Also these two both came with no electronics, no pickup. But many people don't like the Taylor Es2 pickup system, and prefer something like K&K pure mini or LRBaggs Anthem...
@petarkosovic645513 күн бұрын

This is the best capo I’ve found. I bought the wider one for 12 string and the regular 6 string one.

Both are fantastic

What an awesome video and I agree totally with @caseyk6625. #1 Furch . Thankfully I am the UKs main supplier of Furch - I LOVE THEM #2 Cort. Yes I really did feel this was up there - really awesome - these two stood apart from the others. As the largest manufacturer of guitars in the World they have incredible technology in place to build guitars for many of the brands in the market. #3 Taylor. I will put this third but could easily have been last. Tinny and non discript #4 Faith. So glad people can hear this rather than look at it - too many people buy on looks alone and then convince themselves it sounds good after - which is fine if you love the guitar for the looks - thats cool. Faith havent brought out a single guitar in years that has taken the brand forward. Faith used to produce a guitar called the "Trembesi" model. This was trembesi back and sides with a spruce top. This guitar sounded superb - and had a real boutique vibe about it. They discontinued it and replaced it for the ALL trembesi model - pureley on the looks - it sounded far worse but was more popular because it looked pretty. I was gutted. Off the back of the Trembesi - and realising that looks sell - they then released the BLUE MOON made from MANGO - yep.... because it looks cool. So greateful you did this video.

hard to compare since the side/back materials and soundboards are totally different from each other. find another taylor with similar specs. The density of ebony vs mahogany are so far apart that its not a fair comparison. unless the retail price of both instruments are the same then you know that you get a better value with dowina.
@77guitarts223 ай бұрын
In fact for the Dowina you would pay less than the similar Taylor 114ce, and you get a better pickup with Tunner built-in and Blend of piezo & microphone, better binding ( real wood), beautiful inlays, hand made by a small team, the feeling is of a boutique guitar compared to the Taylor. Plays even easier than the Taylor. The Back and Sides are laminated but they are not influencing the sound as much as the solid woods would...

Yeah, my thing is particularly with the Rd -328- I don't want to do any drilling so I'm thinking just use my old faithful Fishman soundhole pickup with anti feedback all in one and it has a 6.3 mm cable that just floats out under the pickguard area. As backup I might try the ones that look like a magnetic pickup in the soundhole that are 'wedged in' by two screw adjusters with loose cable again coming out the bottom near pickguard to go to an amp etc. I just can't bring about myself to drill a hole in the tail of that recording king when I get it..
