duluthdan Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Passionate performance 1 What model is that you suppose? Old Nixk Lucas or something? Nice harmonica and nice soft round thuddy strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldCowboy Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 First off, I like it a whole lot. That doesn't mean a great deal in the scheme of things, but it's refreshing to hear something a bit raw for a change. That guitar intrigues me to no end. Seems to have the body depth of a Nick Lucas.

MissouriPicker Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Yeah, I like that a lot. Not slick and polished. It's nice and real when it has some rough edges. Just like life. Not perfect but very worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesKing777 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 It is a mid thirties Gibson L-0 but hard to catch because the cameraman wanted to show the tortured faces of the singers instead of showing the geeks her guitar! Quite rude, don't ya think? But I am going 37 L-0 because of the binding back AND front and the worn off Cremona finish. Or it could be a BK she found in a paddock... BluesKing777.

OldCowboy Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Looks kind of big for an L-0,but no telling how small the girl happens to be. I still think the body depth is more Lucas-like. If it's an L-0, I'll bet she'd be hard pressed to even LIFT a J-200! 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesKing777 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Detective BK777 found another video of Emily and don't know what the guitar is now - looks deeper body and newer than in the other clip????: BluesKing777. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissouriPicker Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Don't know what the guitar is, aside from it sounds very good. It does look bigger than an L0.... Thanks for letting me know about these people. Especially Emily Barker. She comes across to me as the personification of a female folksinger.

OldCowboy Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Looks very similar to me, but can't be certain. One thing for sure, she's a rather diminutive lady. All that aside, her music and taste in guitars are outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhanners623 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Listened to it a couple of times and maybe I'm just an old fuddy-duddy but I'm not hearing what you guys seem to be hearing. That said, she seems to have attained some measure of success, and this article refers to her "1937 Gibson": https://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/apr/07/emily-barker-extreme-folk-tv-theme-music While this one refers to it as a '38: http://nodepression.com/live-review/emily-barker-and-ciaran-lavery-out-lunch This one just refers to it as a "vintage" Gibson: https://thebluemoment.com/?s=emily+barker Bottom line: It's old.

OldCowboy Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Hipster, preppie, rocker dude - whatever the persona of choice happens to be, there are always insufferable types trying to make music.

Wasn't that convinced either by the OP, but this one is so great. Has something from Archive somewhat in it (the ostinato probably gives me this feeling).
