Thanks again, Steve, for the input. I listened to all of Jeff's videos and I am beginning to see what you are saying. I think I need to get more involved in listening and watching as I attempt to expand my horizons. The "economy of movement" comment struck the biggest note with me. Just as another thought, I believe the Kingpin and amp are pointing out some lack of precision on my part. When I strum and sing along with my friends on the Taylor, precision gets swallowed a bit and is not as noticeable. After some good time last night with the Godin I am liking it more and more.
Jeff's bit on the Kay gives me another look at the acoustic sound. Actually, the "KAY" brings back childhood memories as a Kay was my Dad's first guitar. As a kid I couldn't even push the strings down because of its high action. Wonder where it is now.
And Sean...I will keep at it with strings until the right set comes along.
Thanks for the comments.
Richard
