Well, that's too bad, but I hope to prove you wrong.

It doesn't really matter to ME (I don't play out at all), but I was hoping to help improve the sound of this one friend's guitar when she plays out.

I'll be testing with MY ES-1 equipped-Taylor, but I will have to wait now until I can get the internal fuse replaced. Can't imagine how a fuse blows when the guitar hasn't been plugged in for several years, though.

It also doesn't care whether you finger pick or flat pick during the training. This makes it very nice, as you can shape the playback experience however you want (strings, picking) and will sound like you expect it to.
I was wondering about that. Not sure how that's possible. Shouldn't the microphone pick up a LOT of noise from the pick, but the pickup shouldn't pick up much of that noise at all?


Thanks for the input!
