Old Guitars, Cheap Guitars?
by DPM on 07/20/12Everybody loves a classic guitar. Something about those vintage chunks of wood with strings just work us up on the inside. Of course it has to be in good shape and easy to play, but something about the feel and sound (and sometimes even the smell) of an old guitar is just the best thing in the world. With age comes wisdom, or in this case, tone. The older the woods in the guitar, typically, the better the tone. Well that brings up another thought.
I personally have several guitars ranging in value and age, but my favorite workhorse is a late 70's Harmony acoustic guitar with a 2012 Fishman Rare Earth sound hole pickup. I know... Harmony!! Who cares right?... Well, it seems that everyone that plays it or hears it, loves it. So maybe I just have a rare guitar that someone took pride in making, or maybe Good doesn't necessarily mean Expensive. Who knows? Until next time.
