That’s an absolute steal, good work! Listened to some examples online, sounds really good. Would go well with the Martin drs2 through my tanglewood t6

Yes I lucked out. See EDIT above.
It just makes me relax. When I don’t recognise the mangled pickup sound through a crappy dry PA it puts me off and I get nervous and tense. This unit gives me back control. And I can tweak the eq too. It sounds recognisable so I relax and enjoy and everything goes better
The fishman boxes are great, because you can just have a simple undersaddle pickup and make it sound beautiful. I had an Aura system built into a Martin I had, and it was also great. Though it only had 4 presets, you could change them.
And you know that your guitar sounds way better than anyone’s.
It really struck me… I was at a Jason Isbell show. His support had a classic Martin too, but no Fishman. Jason had a very similar Martin but sounded 3 times as good l. I went up after to see if his Fishman was on the floor, and there it was.
Wilco is in town next week, but I’m out of state.
I’m in Decatur Alabama tonight… wish I could squeeze in a side trip to Muscle Shoals.
Seems like these guitars are more likely to end up in collector’s hands than somebody that will actually use them… but his heart is certainly in the right place.
That’s what I thought. Maybe we should email him and suggest he sells some at a discount so they get into the right hands. Mine for example.
Hey. We, like all of us, don’t think we’ll buy this, not for an instant. That guitar is worth some $400-900 depending condition today. But otherwise…
Mine is a fairly clean example. It’s definitely a poor man’s Buck Owens model, but probably not worth but maybe $200.
Every Harmony guitar I’ve ever seen has the neck splitting from the body. I always thought the arch tops were kind of cool, but I’ve never come across one that was actually playable.
