This probably defeats the purpose a bit,but can you play them quietly? I ask because I live in a condo and I like to dig in a bit but it might not be a great idea if it is incredibly loud and waking up the neighbors
Yes. Loud. I have played a few that were very quiet, look for the 200 dollar one, any brand, likely to be quiet, no guarantee, but likely. If it has a cutaway and costs 200, even more likely.
