As for the acoustics, IMHO, old is better. Acoustics can really take a beating as they are very vulnerable to heat/humidity, finding an old one that was well cared for will cost. Over the years I've owned many acoustic guitars, they just kind of came and went through my life, that is, until 2001. I was fortunate to find a freak of an acoustic that really sounded better than most every other acoustic I'd played. Its not really very expensive, it is a Martin JC-16 KWS, however it's tone and projection were such that I immediately decided to make it mine. 20+ years later that Martin is still one of the most beautiful sounding guitars I've ever played. Great Content, Thank You.

Glad you found the one! I’ve also been through many acoustics that have come and gone (vintage, modern, boutique, budget, etc). Acoustics vary so much from example to example. It’s the ultimate hunt. My ‘64 Gibson SJ is great under a mic, but not inspiring to write on for me. For some reason my Yamaha FG-180 has inspired many songs. I’ll see what the fate of this D-18 in due time!

@@RatherBeRiffing D-18s are wonderful, the unknown that waits ahead is all part of the love for music and guitar. I explained to my Son that, in some ways a different guitar can kind of be like a treasure map, as each instrument seems to inspire different play (and sometimes emotions). I'll be honest, I can't imagine a life without guitar. 👍

I play electric guitar 99% of the time. Just my preference but my oh my that acoustic sounded amazing. And I'm assuming you were just using the camera mic or a single room mic. Of course your wonderful playing and composition really brings out the best of the guitar. Thanks for all that you do from Kansas City.

I like the Bartlett. Were you plugged straight into your amp? What amp are you using? The Martin sounds great. I agree about pickup swaps, almost never works. I also agree about old acoustics. I have a 1932 Martin OM28 and a 1932 Gibson L00 and they sound amazing. They don't always play as well as say a new Collings, but they have something else.

I used a Carr Telstar with a boss GE-7 as a mid boost in the intro. The demo was straight into amp initially then I kicked on a Zen Drive (red). Dream acoustics you have there! I bet they sound incredible.
