A good example of a J45 will be a decent electro-acoustic. BUT, try before you buy.
A good Hummingbird will have it beat (IMO), but it's how much you want to spend.
Problem seems there are very few around...
Interesting about the hummingbird , thks
Oh dear I have opened a door now. I admit I do go and try lots before buying. It does seem though that stocks are fairly low .
What I liked about the one I played is the richness of the bass without loss of the highs.
Again thanks
That another (same make and model) will sound the same is a common mistake. It won't because, frankly, it can't.
I have a Godin Lgxsa that is in new condition. I have hardly ever played it . Seems none of these on the market in the UK . Not sure if it is a good or bad thing.
Now this may sound odd, but I like to get store staff to demo for me ( they love to show their skills) so I can really hear them to compare.
I then play to see if I like the feel .
I have never bought on line.
Maybe I will pop it up on this forum . Just not sure of the value. Need to do some research.
By getting a staff member to play it you're getting a sense of how it will sound to others listening to YOU play.
Same as when I try an electric I try without an amp for a big part of the trial. I like to get the feel of the instrument, the way is resonates and if feels right I then plug in to see how the electrics sound. I have sometimes bought a guitar that was " right" but changed the electrics.
It was playing that J35 and hearing him playing it that opened my ears to a beautiful acoustic sound.
Here's a crappy phone video of it, it sounds fantastic in person;
Going to take time and intend to pass onto my daughter.
She is full time professional and still uses the Faith I bought her when she was 16 for £250.
Though she is mainly a singer.
It will be her inheritance I am spending so best I leave it to her haha.
Again , very impressed with video .
