soundports?

Unread post by dchladmar » Mon Jun 26, 2006 10:19 am

anyone ever heard of them? i put one in my fender acoustic and was so impressed with the sound i am thinking about puting one in my martin acoustic.



they let the player hear 3 times the sound he/she does when playing an acoustic without one. they are easy to put in too. i work with wood and have woodworking tools so the one i put in my acoustic fender was nice.


do a search on "soundports" for acoustic guitars.

Ahhh you cut a hole in your guitar to hear it better?!?!?

that's not my guitar if that's what you were asking. I just googled what he said to and that's what came up. interesting idea I guess, though I would have trouble doing that to a guitar of any value.

I can hear my guitar just fine, Im not going to deface it by doing something like that, it makes me cringe matter of fact.

This is one of the dumbest ideas I have seen in a while. I wouldn't cut a hole in an Esteban guitar to hear it better. The best idea if you want your guitar to be louder is to pick up a friggin electric... :roll:

Yes, I am fully aware that their comment on alternate holes was a lame refrence to the female genitalia. I still think it is a stupid idea to cut a hole in a guitar...
