And, for a $300 acoustic recorded direct, that's damned good.

What do you have it strung up with?

Thanks

Do you mean what kind of strings it's got on? Cause it's with the strings it came from the store; I didn't bother to restring it.

Hopefully I'll post some pics tomorrow

they come with elixer 12's, stock IIRC. not sure bout the guage, but i know for a fact its elixers unless they've changed it since last september.

Yeah, I was wondering about the brand and guage.

Lately I've been rockin' the Elixer Phosphor Bronzes in 12s - they're a little pricier, but I love how they sound. I guess it's a sound a little more associated with bluegrass, but there's this great warm twang to it...

I couldn't add pics to the original post (maybe cause I'm stooopid) so here they are.

They came out a bit blurry, I guess because of low lighting. Oh, except for the last one, the mandatory metal-pic. The blur comes from the head-banging on that one

Yeah that song sadly ain't gonna happen anytime soon. I'm getting drum/bass/key tracks for my album tomorrow, and I'm gonna have to get busy recording that if I want to get done by the time summer is out.

Drew · 06-27-2006, 11:08 AM

And the thing's gorgeous too, dude.

Cool song, Nik, that sounds great. Congrats on the Alvarez, that is very nice.
