Thinking about downgrading.

I could use the money and I just really don't play as much as I used to. I was wondering if you guys could give me some insight into how much this may be worth. I'm probably just gonna pick up some 200$ alvarez to bang around on. I really don't think I take full advantage of it. Martin DR Fishman Na...

yeah if everything is in good shape a new set of strings and set up with a good luthier will eliminate buzzing all together.

That's why if it's possible you don't buy from GC and support your local mom and pop shops with in house luthiers.

If your looking for a fingerstyle/fingerpicking guitar go with a grand concert or similar design for that. I wouldn't recommend a dreadnaught for exclusive fingerpicking.

I recently just went to GC and picked up about 5 sets of strings i've never tried before to "broaden my horizons". For the longest time i've been almost religious about d'addario phos/bronze lights. The EXP's to me are garbage and have a very dead tone to them. I just picked up these Eric Clapton Ed...

What I just typed has absolutely no truth in it unfortunately after reflecting on my thoughts. Each string is going to be the same length from the fret board and all the variances in height will be governed by how the saddle is engineered as long as all strings are fretted at the same fret. Even sti...

It's possible it could affect it depending on the humidity conditions and how abruptly temperature changes in your crib. I keep my martin on a guitar stand and hardly ever put it in the case unless it goes out of the house and have never had an issue with it. Prolly just needs a slight truss rod adj...

Fishman's Matrix Natural 1 would be a nice piezo to put in it. I put the Natural 2 in my dread sized martin and it has a really nice tone. the Nat 1 would be the best choice for the 000 size because it gives a slight bass boost. I went to guitar center and haggled em down to 100 out the door on my N...

I picked it up rather easily, I just hum the song for about 10 minutes then I can sing it the entire way through the first time :/ Songs that i've noticed that seem to be fairly easy to pick up are Wonderwall, and Tonight Tonight.
