Martin D45s Demo

It sounds a bit thin and tinny to me. Maybe it's the mic - not enough low end coming through. To me, not impressive enough for $47,999 (Elderly MAP) - such an over the top price.

 

I certainly wouldn't throw over my D-45 VR for that one.

Too many variables: Are the speakers on your computer reproducing accurate

sound? Is the microphone used in the recording picking everything up? Just

my $.02, but until you hear it in person, it is really difficult to judge the

sound of any guitar.

Which in itself present a secondary argument, if you can't hear it how much use is it?

I'm baffled by the fact that they would do a demo of the guitar and not care about preparing the gear to record right. ...

 

Agree. My computer audio goes through my stereo system and I've listened to many demos. Demoing a $48K, you'd expect these guys to make sure it sounds spectacular. Strange.

 

Here's a GS Mini ($600), same guy, same mic -

You're obviously not deaf. And I think you've already established that you're not a BR guy:

PS: Loved the line "This is a guitar that a songwriter would fall in love with." Yeah, maybe if he's got a wallet like Burt Bacharach.

FMA ,

 

yeah I know I've said that but I didn't want the notion that I'm not a BR fan to prevent me from listening to a great guitar .
