MorrisrownSal Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 SC_Wannabe... They both have Monels (Martin Retro light gauge) on. The CW's strings are brand new though... - more brash. They usually mellow after a few days. https://soundcloud.com/sal-from-chatham/gibson-country-western-vs-j50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC_Wannabe Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Thanks a lot Sal - I enjoyed the comparison. Those both sounded great, but I really liked the CW and the strings didn't sound brash to me at all. You have the best of both world there, with the J50 and the CW.

E-minor7 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 I like both, but prefer the 50. I think it has to do with the tusq to be frank. Know I said it before and you need time to experiment with strings, but do check one of these out sooner or later. For a start. http://www.ebay.com/...9AAAOSweW5U55lQ Affordable and within reach. No doubt the CW holds a huge potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62burst Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Cool- you snuck a little CW/J-50 comparo into this thread (reply #26). . . almost missed it. The CW sounded beautiful in the Melissa part of the clip, and the J-50 sounded better in other parts. . . really need strings of the same age, though, to make a call. Enjoyed that.

Murph Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 .......Yeah, there's no logical "rhyme or reason" about this guitar stuff. Now THERE is an understatement...... ! I agree, get what you want, when you want. That's a nice one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
