SOUND FILES
Here are 11 quick, 1-take MP3 sound files of myself playing
this guitar, to give you an idea of what to expect. The
guitar is very comfortable to play and delivers a very professional acoustic sound with a nice balance between the upper and lower registers, and of course, a very nice 12-string "ring" effect. These files are made using a Blackspade Acoustics UM17R tube mic recorded into a TAB-Funkenwerk V78M tube pre into a Echo Indigo IOX laptop sound card, with MP3s made in Logic, with no EQ, compression, or any other special effects.

In short, this guitar is a World-Class electric acoustic concert and/or recording guitar,
and it would make
a great guitar for live gigs, as well as for studio work. It is comportable, very fun to play, and the range of acoustic sounds you can get out of it give the flexibility to play in a lot of different styles. The excellent pickup system together with the carbon-fiber top gives it a performance stability that exceeds traditional wooden instruments, and make it a natural for the concert stage!!!
