    Absolutely love it. All of my latest guitars have had the aged tops, that is my preference. Although, my next guitar coming next month does not have the aged top nor the thin finish 😞 .... nonetheless, I can't wait for it - 000-28EC.

    Here she is, outstanding! Incredibly light, very nice guitar!
  3. You really don't like you sister do you? 😂
  4. Nice work, really appreciate listening to your work!
  5. True to that. I had one a year or two ago, loved for a while then switched to the J45 and end up selling the Bird...then started missing the Bird. I hope I get one as good the one I had.
  6. Really nice.... looking forward to your review....
  7. oh no, so sorry.... I forgot it is your job to be a smart ***.... although, I do recall my answer as "he" ... lol
  8. Of course, what floats your boat 😉
  9. If she is truly like me she is smoking hot....
  10. True to that.... same couch quarterbacks and keyboard warriors...🙃
  11. Lets analyze that.... why would he not get one....???? hun...confusion baffles me, really hard to answer..... lets see.... AHA, maybe, just maybe.... he appreciates the guitar but does not want to buy one....? I don't know... lol
  12. It has been a while since I posted here. I had a J-45 Vintage (http://legacy.gibson.com/Products/Acoustic-Instruments/2017/J-45-Vintage.aspx) which was one of my favorites. Unfortunately, an issue with the truss rod while adjusting caused a damage to the headstock. I sent to the mother ship (awesome customer service from Gibson as always!) and they are replacing it! Also unfortunate they no longer make the model I had, so worked out a replacement for a Hummingbird. I used to have a HB before and regret selling it, looking forward to it again!
  13. Guys, Sgt. Pepper has been kicked out of the UMGF site, that is what he does... he has the needed need to be heard, and that is how he does it.... just ignore, very little (if any) value added
  14. I understand what you are saying. I thought your comment was directed to my comment (since that what you quoted) about simply playing the guitar vs using the product - I got that mostly from the comment you made, and I quote - "But apples to apples, I truly doubt a 5-minute treatment would compare to our recommended 2-week nonstop initial treatment with different intensity combinations." I have no experience with the product, and honestly no really interest in trying - hence the reason I said I am not a fan. I don't have anything negative to say about the product, and I hope you are very successful. I have read people giving good reviews, and that is great. Also, all guitars I have (without exception) have baked tops...so.... Thanks for taking your time to reply and explain the context of your comment, really appreciate it. Good luck again!
  15. Are you saying it is "safer" to use your product than it is to strum the guitar (do what the guitar was actually built to do)? 😂 Sorry, thanks but no thanks. I wasn't a fan before, now that just sealed the deal 🙄
  16. Wow, this price from Wildwood is REALLY good... I hope you closed the deal!
  17. I would never put a K&K on my expensive guitars, or buy a guitar with it unless it is a fantastic deal that I could flip if I wanted and make a buck...I find the CA glue to very intrusive on the bridge plate. If you ever have to remove it is impossible to get the glue out...some people say they can but I respectfully doubt since the glue is sucked into the wood. For a bit more money the Amulet system is very similar but instead of CA glue it uses a double tape system. I do hear lots of praises for the K&K, sure they are good and inexpensive....but just not for me.
  18. As already said - sound is subjective. Although they have similar body, they are very different guitars - material and construction so the sound and feel will be different. IMO the difference is night and day towards the Vintage (which is one I have) - I like the power delivered by the sum of the components listed below: Vintage: 1) Much more scalloped #1 brace 2) More angle on the X-brace - more open towards the bottom allowing for more bass 3) VOS 4) Hide Glue 5) Baked top Notice I did not list Adirondack. I like a Mahogany back and sides guitar with Sitka as much as Adirondack. The preference towards Adi tops is when paired with rosewood.
  19. That is one factor, the other is aging...
  20. Strum your guitar for 5 minutes /day, with no reason or rhyme, and it will do the work you need for free 🙂
  21. Here is a tip if you do get them, remove the glue with alcohol, install the high E then the low E with just the pressure of the ball against the plate, really nice, easy to remove... completely non-intrusive. I have installed three so far and will always get them on every guitar from now on.
