I am sorry that I pulled down the other video. But the volume was just too low. I'm still getting used to using DaVinci Resolve as my editing software and am still learning how to use all the features it has.

Also, if you look in the background, around time stamp 21:00 minutes, you'll see a pic on my tablet. That was my 2000 HD 1200 Sportster. Man I loved that motorcycle...lol.

Oh, it's the best software? Was it me who recommended it to you?

@@LegsON You may have but I have been using it off and on for years. I decided to go full bore into it's use after having compatability issues with NCH on my new laptop. For a free video editing program, that's free... that's free, I had to say that twice (lol), it's the best video editing software out there. For free...

@@HayesTech The macOS/iOS/Windows video codec compatibility issues make my blood boil. This software solves them... 95% of the time.🥲

Outstanding video! I appreciate you going into the dovetail and the differences. Yes sir, the Martin had more depth, in my opinion. That said, the Recording King certainly sounded great for the price. Appreciate the shout out and yes, the Mackenzie & Marr that I recently purchased really surprised me. Budget these days doesn’t necessarily equal cheaply made. You’re too kind David and I’m looking forward to your next one, brother man 👍🏻

@@randysrhythm Thank you Sir. I do know that on some of Gibson's higher end guitars, like the J-45, J-150 and J-200, they actually used a compound dovetail joint. At least they used too. I'm not sure if they still do though. I love Gibson guitars, but I really wish they would quit trying to cut corners all the time, just to save a couple bucks. Do you remember the plywood bridge plate days, and the plastic bridges?... Lol... What were they thinking?..lol I remember seeing models, like the 70"s Gibson Gospel, where the dovetails were more like a Martin. So I can't be %100 sure which type of dovetail they use today. Anyways... It's always good to hear from you and I can't wait till your next video. Take care and I'll talk to you soon.

@@HayesTech I bet the compound L shaped body-neck joint is extremely resilient, but it 100% robs tone.

@@LegsON Yes, I've heard it's different than the standard dovetail joint in it's sound. I definitely prefer the standard compound dovetail neck to body joint the Martin has.

It’s wonderful, don’t think too much about it. It don’t have to be perfect : ) loved listening to your recordings ❤

@@LayilaFaon Thank you much. I'm really picky about my uploads though. Lol... And there are a lot of people who like to complain when you're playing isn't as professional as they think it should be. Thanks again.

The Martin sounds better- no big shocker. But for the money the Recording King sounds very good. The RD-348 sounds better still. My understanding is that there are examples of Recording Kings that sound significantly better. True of Martins also, and most good guitars. You are right on matte finishes being easier to play on. I picked a satin vs gloss Taylor 224 ce- k for just that reason. Not a huge Taylor fan per se- I have owned a Martin D18, Guild D40 in the past- but the Koa has a warmer tone. It is a grand auditorium shape, great for playing higher on the neck due to the cutaway- but I still want to add a dreadnought.

Are you using the same strings on both?

@HayesTech Ай бұрын

@@TheRealMachoSavage Yes I am. I wanted everything, but the guitars, to be the same. Strings are Elixer 80/20 phosphor bronze 12 to 54 medium light. Those are the strings I play on all our guitars in the house. Lol.. As you can imagine, we go through a lot of them. They should pay me for the free advertising.

@@LegsON So do I...lol. I am so happy I went with this model instead of just the standard HD-28. I think I still would have liked the HD-28, but the HD-28V just had that extra coolness, in both it's looks and sound. And did I mention I love the sound?...lol... Thanks so much for watching and for the comment, I do appreciate it.
