Very beautiful guitar.

Both sound wonderful in your talented hands.

I have had the original Deering Vega Vintage Star in maple for about 18 months. Was hard to find initially. I have to say it’s my favorite banjo and I have 10! I love the Dobson tone ring sound. I have a tubaphone, rolled brass, white laydie tone rings but my ear loves the Dobson lol Deering makes great banjos, this Vega is beautiful, great quality, lightweight and awesome sounding. Would highly recommend!

The cherry is nice but the original is stunning

I had a roommate in the Air Force who played guitar like that. I wish I had learned as well. That guitar is gorgeous. The only improvement I would make is to add pickups to make it electric just for the sake of volume.

I found that when playing the octave Mando in a group session it got totally overpowered by the guitars.. as opposed to a mandolin which sat on top. My Mandola became a 'sofa' instrument and after some nerve damage in my left hand made it difficult to form some guitar chords I moved more and more to this instrument and after changing to octave strings it gave me a lot of notes and much easier to make chords (2 fingers for basics..). My instrument has matured beautifully over the years and now sounds fantastic.. I dont write songs but I found this instrument very easy to come up with new tunes/melody's and would reccomend to any Guitar player having a 'dry' spell.. As Joe says, it has a blank history with a wide open future.. Worth a go..

Thank you!

My 210ce plus with C-class torified sitka is amazing seriously.

You gotta play more. Sounds nice.

PERFECT demo. Thank you!

LOVELY!

Definitely going to check this one out. I was looking at the GPC 11 series but am liking this one better

Beautiful. I love this Roland Sally song so much and the way people interpret it.

Beautiful

Please, i live in Brazil. How much cost this guitar?

What strange chord patterns on the neck!

I have been a guitarist for 40 years and I can figure mandolin out! Nice playing.

I brought one of these down under. An excellent guitar.

00-18V ??

Never seen or heard one of these, simply divine.

I experimented with several strings. Ended up loving Elixir PB nano web mediums

One of my very favorite fiddle tunes. And so well done!

A sweet old fiddle tune played in its most elemental form by a “master of the universe” mandolin player. Thank you so much.

Beautiful guitar! I’m blessed with the 656ce 12-string which was discontinued. For an acoustic 12-string, my preferred tonewood is maple. Can’t go wrong with the rosewood back and sides though.

❤Crooked Trees, You grow so deep and so well, Free!! Hair today, gone tomorrow...Listen Sisters...More than hair❤😂❤❤Thank YOU!

Excellent review! What a cannon! I'm just wondering why the Open G tuning with C on the bottom E strings instead of D, to keep it a true Open G tuning. I'm sure there's an advantage, I just can't think of it.

What mic is this ? I see it all the time but I don t know which one is..

Great song, she’s got that Judy Jetson outfit going on 🚀

Perfectly structured review. Great playing too! Many thanks.

Cool!

Bruce is the best

Hi Teja, great video and two great Taylor products! 👍🏼 I‘m very interested in that song you are playing. This is a part of Judy by John Ranbourn. Is there any possibility that I can buy this as a pdf document from you. Many many thanks! Norbert

Why don't someone Demo a microphone

Sounds like my om 28

Scratchy 🤢

Overalls and a $12k mandolin... nice.

how you adjust the sound in mixer to original when plugin ?

Bravo!!

That's the most perfect tune ..To showcase your Harp Guitar ...Just Awesome !!! Long live Harry .. :)

You need a $20k mandolin to show us that?

Excellent demo! Very helpful.. Thank you so much.. And great playing ❤❤❤

I feel like these are perfect for the gigging musician. I'm definitely considering getting one for myself! 👍

I love the Grand Concert size -- *SO* much easier to play than the giant Dreadnought I started with 18 months ago. I replaced that Drednought with a Taylor Academy 12e about 6 months ago. When I get to the point where I want to upgrade, I will probably be replacing it with a 412ce. Maybe a 612ce -- but I *really* like the finish on these new 400-series guitars, so we'll see. It's going to be a couple of years, I'm sure -- I'm still very much in the beginning stages of my guitar journey.

The ten string is a bit like a mandolin and a mandola combined together. Amazing instrument.

Everything matters... It is just a question of how much. The player, the instrument, the setup, the strings, the room, the mic, the PA/amp (both the equipment and settings), the humidity level, pick material, pick shape, pick thickness, pick bevel... When you divide 100% of your tone across all of these factors (and others) the numbers for many of these items get small. That said, small things add up. We play for our own enjoyment and for the enjoyment of others. Anything that increases your enjoyment is worth considering. Full disclosure: 1) I have a quart jar full of picks including Wegan, Bluechip, Red Bear and many others. I just ordered a tone slab. 2) I am a crap player and my opinion doesn't matter, Do whatever you want.

Excellent presentation of an iconic guitar. RIP Paul.

That sure sounds nice, no wonder the H13 is so near and dear to Richard's heart!

Thanks for this. Great guitar!

Ah I love Johns playing! He lives near me too!
