I've added it to the description

@@CodyWeathers Thank You! Old retired amateur here. Performing is on the "bucket lust". Hope to meet you soon!

@@johnhawkinshawkins1284 Reverb is a good option

Yes. 2nd/4th Tuesdays (including this coming week 7/9/24). 15min slots, all ages, sign up sheet goes out at 5:30, free Audio/Video recording on request. Check out some recent performances here to get a sense of the gear, space, and recording: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y8Vjhq50z9DWdIk.html Hope to see you there!

It'll be on the new forthcoming @tenspiders album. I'll pin a link when it's available.

The Acoustasonic has a sophisticated Fishman enhancer/"acoustic engine" that makes it sound like a full-bodied acoustic guitar. This onboard engine requires periodic charging, which is different than most acoustic/electric guitars (i.e., acoustic guitars which have the option to plug in to a PA for amplification), which typically just use regular 9V batteries. For more on this guitar see my in-depth review here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/erVkqLumrM2Ynps.html

Mine does. It’s also what they make acoustic preamps for. The acoustasonic line, is just overpriced, in my opinion. It was promoted as an acoustic, that would sound and feel, like an electric, while still retaining the sound of an acoustic. They just don’t, unless one has a very good setup. With no mic, or amp, they just aren’t very loud. Or, it’s a quality control issue, because I’ve tried out a lot of them, and some are louder acoustically, than others, while some sound better plugged in. Others are just stale, and lifeless, with bad action. Just like all Fender’s guitars. One can play a hundred of them, and only find 10, that feel and sound good, regardless of the model, from Squires to Custom Shop guitars, compared to the basic American Standards. I think they work better with my solid state amp, than a tube amp, but I don’t remember what Rhett played it through. I’ve found ones, that I like the action on, and work for certain situations, but for the money, I think there are just better options.

@@CorbCorbin if your acoustic pre amp sounds so good why is it always mic’d in studio? If you haven’t recorded ever, no producer would ever plug in an acoustic and use the pre amp. I’m well aware they have preamps. What i was pointing out is that those preamps don’t sound anything like an acoustic guitar, they sound like an acoustic guitar plugged into a guitar amp. That’s why artists used to mic their acoustics even at live shows. The whole point isn’t that you can’t get sound from an acoustic, the point is, no acoustic or folk player likes that sound because it doesn’t sound like an acoustic. That’s why the tonedexter was made, because acoustic preamps are so awful. You might actually like the sound, but it still doesn’t sound anything like an acoustic. Which is why i said “there’s no point in having an acoustic” because you’re just gonna try using pedals or a preamp to make it sound like an actual mic’d guitar. I’m not saying the acoustasonic sounds better than an acoustic. I’m saying acoustics sound Exactly the same as an acoustasonic plugged in, so there’s no point in using an acoustic when you can get the same exact sound from a Chet Atkins or T5 or Acoustasonic. Your taste might be different. But still, no producer has ever chosen an acoustic pre amp over a microphone, there’s a reason for that.

Same here

Sounded great to me, brother

YES! You lent me your cajon that night!

I would buy that every day and twice on Sunday at 250. Love my Alleykat

@@CodyWeathers how's the neck feel? And I'm intrigued about the minihumbucker. How much the DCR of each pickup?

@@CodyWeathers oh sorry, I misconvert to USD, it's $277. Is it still worth?

@@BudiPrasetyoHarsono Yes $277 would still be a great price for that guitar. They typically sell used closer to $400 USD median. Very comfortable neck 1.68" nut width. I'm having trouble verifying this, but I once wrote down that according to the 2003 EPiphone catalog, the DCR on the mini-humbucker was 6.65K ohm

@@CodyWeathers thanks! One last question, how's the built quality, is it on par on Epi Dot?

In my experience, when properly done (as described around 5:30), it's a stable modification. Furthermore, while I've never personally drilled one to have a before/after comparison, I will say that professionally-drilled rivet cymbals with the rivets out still sound like members of their class and weight (i.e., a 2200g ride with empty rivet holes still sounds like a similar 2200g ride with no holes). So I wouldn't personally be discouraged from buying one in fear that it is damaged either structurally or sonically.

For that particular unit I own that is just a quirk. It doesn't always happens, but thus far, it has always resolved within 5min of being turned on (typically less). These days, I primarily use the A1000, and it has never experienced that particular issue.

the reason I asked is because I just bought a used a1000 and it has the same glitch. If I turn it off and back on again, it’s fine. Thanks for getting back to me!

I haven't had to change them, but the factory spec strings are 37-90's in a 22"-25" scale. One option is the D'Addario GS Mini set: www.daddario.com/products/guitar/bass-guitar/phosphor-bronze-bass/37-90-custom-light-taylor-gs-mini-xt-coated-phosphor-bronze/
