That guitar is so nice, sounds great, is it as expensive as Grand suzuki guitar? Thank you so much for sharing. Your are a great guitarist. Keep it up uncle.

[@toddvossmusic7833]

Thank you! Not sure what a Grand Suzuki costs, these are $2000- U.S. new, used around 1500-.

Excellent demonstration. You have played the 000-15sm and the D-15. Which do you prefer specifically for fingerstyle?

[@toddvossmusic7833]

Thanks for watching! I would say the 000 for fingerpicking, but the D fingerpicks well also. Just depends if you want the deeper bass.

@@toddvossmusic7833 Thank you. I sold a D-15M year ago and am thinking about replacing it and possibly with the 000-15sm. My ears just hear a 14-fret connection punchier and more articulate on the Martin hogs but everybody seems to like the 000-15sm.

@@2628064379 I prefer the versatility and lush depth of the D-15m. To each his own, trust your ears.

@@toddvossmusic7833 We hear the same thing LOL!

[@usualsuspect5173]

Do you think it's worth it to put a pickup in it?

[@toddvossmusic7833]

That's a personal choice. I sold the guitar, I think the new owner is putting a pickup in it. If you gig, a pickup makes sense, I generally prefer no pickup, but do put in some of my guitars. The right one would sound great in this.
