Members wankdeplank Posted February 24, 2015 Members Share Posted February 24, 2015 Wow that's quite an acoustic. Have to play some alternating bass blues melody on that bad boy. Big congrats on the acquisitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members stormin1155 Posted February 25, 2015 Members Share Posted February 25, 2015 Sweet little guitar! I love smaller bodied 12-fret acoustics! They are so comfortable to play! I recently picked up a little 0 sized Recording King, and it's become the guitar I reach for most of the time. Anyway, congratulations on yours! It's a beauty!

Moderators Ratae Corieltauvorum Posted February 27, 2015 Moderators Share Posted February 27, 2015 That looks pretty special Mr S. Be pretty interested in hearing your thoughts after you spent some time with it. I have an overdue NBD to do, but it's not yet come out of the box, as the music room was having some work done in there, and it's a pretty special'un Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GAS Man Posted March 8, 2015 Members Share Posted March 8, 2015 Congrats, if yours sounds that great in the flesh, then that's awesome. Some years ago my wife bought me for a surprise gift the Martin Eric Clapton 000-28 and I really haven't bonded with it, just "appreciate it". I'm usually more drawn to dreadnaughts, but it sounds like that Gibson Keb Mo has some real nice depth to it for a smaller bodied guitar. A couple years ago I had a Baby Collings in my hands that blew my mind for depth of tone out of a small guitar. I probably should have bought it, but I was 3,000 miles away from home in NYC and not liking the idea of transport, Mandolin Brothers pricing and NYC sales tax. I'm know more about electrics than acoustics, but I have found that the Gibsons, while often being a bit darker sounding (unless they're a maple model), usually have a bit more depth to their tone than Martins, which tend to sound a bit more jangly. Check out this video of my EC model and you'll see that yours (at least in the videos) had proportionately more depth to its tone. The only reason I bring mine up is that they are both aimed more at articulate finger style playing than chord strumming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mistersully Posted March 8, 2015 Author Members Share Posted March 8, 2015 hey gasman i have a blueridge br163 which is a 000 style... nice guitar, all solid woods etc... but the gibby definitely has more body to it when i bought the gibson i tried a lot of small bodied acoustics... to me, the keb mo had more depth to the tone than the others, which is what i was looking for .. particularly for how i want to use it another guitar i tried which was a really nice instrument was the martin jeff tweedy... great little guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Steve2112 Posted March 8, 2015 Members Share Posted March 8, 2015 Congrats on your new guitar, look forward to your review. In the video, I had hoped to see some "room" sound clips- it does sound great on the mic. I also wish I could ply finger-style that well. I'ver justnever developed that independent right hand finger motion. Keep us posted HNGD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
