Which acoustic did you play today ?

Besides the Godin, played a gorgeous Larrivee OM-09 today. ;-)

And You ?

Took the 1995 Taylor 512 to my weekly course this morning... ;-)

Well, guitar course ended while golf began... so almost took a week off the guitar. :-/
Babbled blues impro and riffs out of pentatonic blues scales on Godin 5th Avenue (Cognac burst) yesterday...

Today, six-strings GoldTone banjo (banjitar) ! ;-)

Well, tried and bought an Eastman AC122ce yesterday...
"NGD" to come... some day... ;-)

Add on : played it again today...
Plan to compare with Martin OOO-18 and Taylor 512 though.

Yesterday night, played alternatively the brand new Eastman AC122ce, Taylor 512 and Martin OOO-18...

Won't play today...
Played some pop and jazzy pieces on... nylon Aria AC-80 yesterday. ;-)

Finally stayed home today...
Played tricone Hot Rod and classical Ramirez R4...
Yeah ! I know : Sparse tastes... ;-)

Recent Eastman AC122ce... in DADGAD ! ;-)

As it is the only one not sold among those three I had put on the market, I played some standard tuning arrangements (from Celtic Guitar Encyclopedia by Glenn Weiser) on my Taylor GS-5 (2007), cedar/mahogany.
Maybe it will not be a bad thing if she does not go... ;-)

Oh man, oh man ! Tuned and played my brand new (directly from the Godin factory and unboxed yesterday evening, still smelling fresh nitrocellulose !) Seagull Performer Concert Hall CW Burnt Amber QIT.
I will long for her to open up but the sound is already good.

I had tried one three weeks ago... Went back Monday... Geeee ! Another guy was trying it... and bought !
So I had ordered this one.

Played the Seagull again... Country Blues repertoire...
At a moment, thought I was playing Gibson L-00 TV ! 8-/

That’s one of the guitars that I’ve been thinking a bit about, now that I’m playing a bit more acoustic and jamming with other people. Nice to hear you’re enjoying it!

Just played both the Seagull and the Gibson alternatively on Celtic repertoire (Glenn Weiser's Celtic Guitar Encyclopedia) in standard tuning for the last hour or so... ;-)

Well, as it still hasn't sold, I gave a try to the Taylor GS-5 Cedar/Mahogany : What a sound, man, what a sound !

Broke out the Martin 000-16GT today. Mainly to decide if I’m going to trade it for a Larrivée 150 Canadian Edition L-03. Huge mistake because now I want to keep the Mart8n and buy the Larrivée.

Same boat with My Taylor GS-5 that did not sell though on the market for three months now. Got a few insufficient offers... May keep it with Martins 0,0125 string gauge...

Today, played the Eastman AC122ce in DADGAD... ;-)

Some O'Carolan's stuff on Gibson L-00TV, standard tuning.

A bunch of great immortal melodies on the Seagull ;-)

Quite the same tunes as yesterday, but on Martin OOO-18 today... ;-)

Well, today, as the weather cooled a bit and allowed me not to sweat on the nitro finish, I played some reknowned melodies on Taylor GS-5 in standard tuning and some celtic melodies on Taylor 510 in DADGAD.
