Perhaps. But I think I should my d28 for busking.

Kay. Will get a couple of sledge hammers

Yes I started out with it using light phosphor bronze. Thought it was the phosphor that was so “bassy”. But maybe I’ll go back to that and see if it sounds fuller. Not quite ready for mediums. Don’t want to overdrive the VOS top.

I recently bought a 1960 fixed bridge hummingbird and love it. However, I’ve never had a hummingbird and I’ve been trying to figure out what sounds great. I am using D’Addario XS light gauge 80/20 strings. The way it sounds when I finger pic and play leads is great. However . I have found out what they mean about it having its own space but not being very good to accompany other Guitars. today I went out on a sidewalk in my town and played some songs. Couple times I would put the capo on the fourth fret cause I’ve always liked that on other guitars. But what I found out was that this hummingbird is not for that kind of thing. It sounded too high-pitched and too thin. I found myself trying to play as tenderly as I could. but maybe that is the limits of this guitar. I’m fine with that and can use this for songwriting and use my Martin out on the sidewalk. I just thought this was an interesting thing to find out.

Got it back. My set up man’s lowered the nut slots somewhat and compensated the saddle. He had to make a new saddle as the one that was made in Bozeman had an uneven bottom —not straight at all that saddle made it loud with a lot of “sheen”

I just got this guitar. It’s at my luthier who is tweaking the nut and replacing the saddle that came with a round bottom. He is also compensating it. Can’t wait to get it back. https://imgur.com/a/9vQFqNu
