My Taylor 110ce isn't the best of guitars, but it's as far as I could stretch financially. Now I'm really glad I have it - it's got exactly the right sound for a home studio workhorse guitar. I think I can make it sound professional enough with my current equipment. I'm not looking to upgrade at this point, just looking for another Oktava MK-012 and maybe later another M179. And if that's covered I want to get all the Oktavas I have by then modded by Michael Joly.
My guitar doesn't need an upgrade either, but I really want something different that's a bit more comfortable for me. Something with a smaller soundbox and a wider neck.
Its like a tide isnt it sometimes the tide comes in and says upgrade upgrade ....then the tide goes out and it feels like relief because you look at what you have got and say a home musicain has never been so well equiped .

Probably what is more to the truth is that the interest in music takes over when the music itself isnt taking you ....i mean you arnt creating .

Out of interest what does the modded by Michael joly mean or do .
One thing i am cirtain is that talking to people who are on different stages of the learning curves in music advances a player just as much as any piece of equipment does ...and thank goodness for the internet where people like yourself and others are ready to give up their insights .....ive said this before but this site in particular is like the hub of the acoustic specialists ..it dosent matter what you ask or how many times you ask ..you always get answeres ......thanks and you are right of course as examples are everywhere that it is the man that makes music not always the qaulity of his instruments .I feel like a weight has been lifted just talking about it all .I think sometimes it is a human condition to think of what you havent got as opposed to what you have got .I will definately chase up some of the mics you suggest and then get back to my music .thanks fr the cool down .
