I was lucky enough to see Bruce’s show on Broadway. We had seats that were about the 20th row. He played an acoustic show telling his life story. If you’re a Bruce fan it’s a very enjoyable evening. What surprised me was that he played four Takamine’s (a jumbo, two GA’s and a 12 string). I don’t know his hand size but he was able to get his thumb two strings down onto the fretboard. I was surprised that he only played one brand of guitar. Near the end of the show Patti Scialfa joined him for two songs also with a Takamine. Takamine says they don’t pay any artists to play their guitars but I find it odd that that was the only brand being played.

The sound system was great but my wife thought the guitars did not sound that good. I’m average at best but she’s used to hearing me play and I was impressed that she heard what I did.

I fired up my Fender Hot Rod Deville amp and plugged in my Taylor 414ce. The sound was off just like what I heard at the Bruce on Broadway show. I’ll bet he’s using an electric amp for his guitars sound. Someone should introduce him to Fishman amps.
