ToneDexter - The Holy Grail!
Picked up my ToneDexter yesterday from old friend Stevie at Mighty Fine Guitars.
The TD is amazing! It is the tone I have been searching for in amplified acoustic sound since the mid 90s. It is the purest acoustic guitar amplified sound I have ever heard.
I trained a Dazzo SBT-equipped Taylor 814ce with a Shure SM81, miked at 15" from the neck body joint straight on. The manual was easy to follow, and my first training attempt produced a very pleasing result in about 3 minutes. I then used that map for a Dazzo-equipped Blackbird Lucky 13 carbon fiber guitar, plugged into a Schertler Jam 150. Though you can tell the difference between the two when amplified, they are pretty close in tone. So now I have a carbon guitar that sounds like a miked wooden guitar when amplified. Wow! I understand why these units are selling as fast as they are made.
This is the best $400 I have ever invested in acoustic amplification. Just wanted to give a shout out to an amazing, magical product. ~ Mike
