As the world rages insanely around us, our master luthier, Ted Woodford of Hamilton, Ontario, demonstrates how you navigate a problem to achieve sweeter music. You don’t have to wrap it around a support pole. A little patience, a little finesse, a little creative thinking, and you’re done. And if you can’t fix it, learn to use it and help it find its own “acoustic space”. Thanks Ted.

The '60s Fender "acoustic guitars" are SHIT, OKAY ? A friend had a Kingsman w/ a pickup (from the factory). It's acoustic sound was horrible. It's plugged-in sound was atrocious. However.

About that buzz on the Martin, I would set a sine-wave generator to the frequency that activates the resonance and have that play on a headphone speaker.

The Wildwood was played in these shows for awhile. The hollow metal bar kept humming after the sustain. Drove them crazy.

How many folks here have ever experienced a real New England style clambake? Growing up on the shores of Long Island Sound, my folks hosted one almost every year for a decade and a half. Us kids dug a big pit in the sand, and collected several garbage cans full of floating seaweed (the kind with the bubblewrap like air sacs on it). Build a hot fire, tossing a bunch of large hot rocks into the pit to heat them up, and when it burns down to coals you alternate layers of seaweed with layers of food ---- lobsters, crabs, long neck "steamer" clams, corn on the cob, potatoes ---- , then cover with a tarp and a layer of sand and let the food steam in the pit for three to four hours. The seafood aroma when you uncover the pit is like nothing you have ever experienced.

Because in an electric, sustain is easy- on an acoustic where there is no amplification, every bit of the vibration counts. Adjustable bridges andswappable necks make deadzones of sound.

[@brendanwalsh108]

@@jdsd744 They say they, but then acoustic guitars with adjustable bridges and swappable necks actually sound just fine, and they do exist so... Not really lol.

[@alexduong4604]

For cheaper, factory-produced guitars that may be a viable option. However, for more decently priced, handcrafted, and solid wood acoustic guitars, every nuance within how the energy is transferred from string into the wood is important. Changing the contact point for the string's vibration from genuine bone to a metal will have a substantial impact on the overall tone of the instrument. Solid bone saddles have still reigned supreme over other innovations throughout the decades simply due to an objectively better quality of sound, and the nature of how it works means that making adjustable saddles is not a flexible option without compromising the overall tone of the instrument. This is why it's important for a good luthier to be able to provide accurate saddle compensation and height to the best of their ability, and I think players will benefit from allowing experienced techs to do this kind of work for them.
