$395 Rubber Bridged Juniper from Orangewood: shorturl.at/lprv3
Orangewood sent me their parlor sized juniper equipped with a rubber bridge to check out. So of course I got loopy and ran it through a small pile of pedals.

This was and incredible demo video, and you did both yourself and Orangewood, a great service. I know this isn't exactly your cup of tea, or wheelhouse based on our conversations, but DAMN DUDE. You nailed it, hit it out of the park. Only you would have thought to throw all those pedals at it, and to come up with some of the riffs within a couple of hours of recording. I can't believe that one of these days soon while making room on the display wall, that one of these will just have to be added. I know you did a demo on your looper pedal, but I need a better instructor. Those dudes; me, myself, and I, don't have a clue on how you made that work so well.

If I had to guess, a lot of the folks doing this at home aren't grounding the tailpiece, so maybe it has in fact become part of the character of the build. Personally, I'd ground it though. I have an old cheap acoustic collecting dust, a hot rail pickup, and some torn up tires kicking around, maybe I'll throw one of these together for fun.

Great vid! I just bought this guitar because I fell in love with the look. The rubber bridge is a bonus and with Ariel Posen being one of my favorite guitarists, it was a no brainer. Check out his Mile End videos on KZfaq with his rubber bridged acoustic. These guitars love ambient pedals and arpeggiating chords. I think these lend themselves to that style of playing due to how articulate they are.

@terryenglish7132 7 ай бұрын

Speaking of grounding, I use 42 gauge magnetic wire from a dead pick up. It will vapourize across the terminals of a 9 volt battery, so theres no chance of getting electrocuted from non Earth grounds w a potential difference.

Although I do love it ...I kinda avoid that muted sound, especially if it is permanent. I do love the flat wounds on it. But the flat wounds are tough on a guitar neck/body ...being of high tension and all. I listened to Orange woods demo videos and it just sounded too dull , my high E needs to ring more than that . I'd have to think this over. I already have an Alvarez -Yairi parlor size with built in passive pickup., so I probably don't need it, but I really love the balls that O-Wood has . It makes people look as you play it .

BTW you can ground any guitar that has not grounded metal tailpiece just by using external wire from jack to the tailpiece, just something with long unshielded ends that could be twisted around the parts. Or if you have cable with crocodile ends that could be used also. Grouning guitar is not so exact like grounding amp or some electrical components. The ground is just to cut the noise trought human body, not to reference real ground (your body is not grounded)

It looks really nice. But the neck angle is way off if they are gonna use a trapeze tailpiece, plus the tailpiece is too long. I get the rubber bridge thing, it's a great way to get that dead string sound without having to play crusty nasty dead strings. But without enough down pressure on the saddle, you aren't gonna get enough body resonance to matter. The sound should be the fundamental THUD of the string with very little sustain, not splat splat splat. The lack of grounding on the tailpiece + these factors really shows that they are going after this market instead of really making a plug and play option for people who want this style of guitar. I 100% approve of magnetic pickups on acoustic guitars though. They are so so much better than any piezo I've ever heard, even direct into a PA, as long as you have the right strings. I guess I'm just disappointed because the thing looks so nice. Electrically, it sounds fine.
