Alex, if you can indulge me ... I gotta ask about that Novo. I'm pretty much sold on their guitars, and want to take the leap. But I'm wondering how you chose Miris vs. Serus? Definitely a different look with the binding, but I'm mostly interested in whether the semi-hollow makes a difference in timbre/warmth or anything else you might notice. Any quick thoughts appreciated!
@AlexFarranGuitar18 сағат бұрын
It’s a lovely guitar for sure, and the semi hollow is the one that stood out to me as it’s got a bit of everything going on. I wanted a 330 type of guitar, and I wanted a jaguar… this is like both combined 😅 At some point I’d like to try one of their solid bodies with the tele bridge too.
