MorrisrownSal Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Hey guys. I am a bachelor tonight... so free time for me means guitar time... I recorded this Ryan Adams song, Dirty Rain, and I hope you like it. But first I want to reiterate how impressed I am with this Bird. It just breaks so many rules. First off it's heavy. Heavier than prior BIrds I have owned. Second, It just will not break up. It has a tremendous low end I am managing to tame. But heck... if I need the devil to know I am around and to stay clear.... I have the tool. This Bird is louder than my D18. MY D18! And that Martin is no slouch. Its also a tender instrument if you handle it right. I am playing soft (for me) here. And when I do play soft like this I feel like I am playing a fundamental Harmony (Zomby you would know about those). Anyways this bird has passed tests. She gigged last weekend. And she records. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWxKx6rrOQY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle fester Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 T Sal - nice sound, on you and the guitar. I believe you got a pretty sweet J45 a couple months back, if you ever get a hankerin' would love to hear a comparison of the 2. rgds - br Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelly campbell Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Good stuff again Sal. Love the Bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Paul Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I've only played two Hummingbirds (recent standards at GC) and neither one of them sounded like this one. I don't know much about Ryan Adams but this song is a gem. Very nice, Sal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
