EBMM owners, what Acoutic do you use/play???

[songman]

EBMM guitars seems to be the hidden jewel of electric world and most of us on this forum were either smart shoppers or just have good taste when it comes to buying guitars.

Having said, it would be interesting to see what acoustic we use.

I currently have Larrivee LV-09K.

 

[roburado]

Taylor (don't recall the model number, but it was a limited ed), which I almost sold to fund Balls.

 

[brusdon]

I play a Lowden for acoustic and a hand-made Spanish guitar for classical. Both are hand-made one offs, beautiful guitars.

 

[peterd79]

I play a Dean Exotica Andes... with an aftermarket eq and pickup system... it sounds great...

 

[augustyn]

in live situation i use JP piezos and an aphex exciter for acoustic sounds (through PA)
sometimes i use various ovations (6 string, 12 string, doubleneck, ...)

 

[wolfbone07]

Rainsong WS1100, all carbon fiber / composite material, sounds amazing, and it never goes out of tune. Plus, the shark inlays in the neck are cool! This is not an amazing pic, but the carbon fiber looks great.

I'm playing a very crappy Fender acoustic....

I'm on the lookout for a Taylor...

 

[eliot323]

Taylor 714CE with the expression system which I play mainly in alternate tunings (Martin Simpson is my acoustic hero).

The piezo on the Petrucci's is also great...

Taylor 414ce

I have an older Martin D-18 and a D-28 that I can't live without.

I shopped for an acoustic I liked for about 2 years until ovation introduced this one. The Tangent model. When I played it and saw the 4+2 headstock I knew it was the one I wanted. Oddly enough, about a month after they were intorduced they reversed the headstock to a 2+4 configuration.

I wonderdog why that happened.

 

[Fusionman]

A 1977 Guild D40 solid spruce natural top w/mahogany sides and back. I use a Bill Lawrence soundhole pickup if I need to amplify it.

 

[silverburst]

Those Esteban's from the HSN are tempting.... Har har har

 

[mark_tampa]

'66 Gibby Hummingbird, '68 D-18 and a Ovation CE-1868. But oddly enough, the one I tend to play most is a 'el cheapo mini-Martin. It sits in the living room against the wall and is handy to pickup and play on the back porch. The others (kids in the house) sit packed away in cases upstairs and get little playing time these days but am to attached to them to ever sell...

Washburn Cumberland Acoustic

 

[jeffrey]

Custom Shop Taylor 810C.

I was one of the few lucky enough to attend Taylorstock in 2002 and build a custom guitar with Bob himself.

Takamine

Hey Guy's I'm Playing a 2005 LTD Takamine with Solid Mahog Neck ,Back and Sides and a solid spruce top,

I have a Taylor 810CE, but I don't use it too often. It's just too bright, not enough low end. If I ever get back in to a heavy acoustic phase, I'll probably sell it and find a Martin I like.

I do play acoustic at church weekly and for those I use a little green Yamaha APX1 Travel guitar. The pickup truly sounds amazing and it's better than lugging around a dreadnought. They stopped making them awhile ago, but I'm serious about how good they sound. It sounds better than most full sized acoustics on the market. When EQ'ed, you even have to turn DOWN the bass. They're fetching a little more each year.
here's a picture of one
