It sounds as good as it looks, which in this case is very high praise indeed.

My goodness. When Ben first sits down in the video his conversational voice is reverberating in the guitar. Amazing!

Congrats Ben on your new model and congrats Tom on your new Nautilox. It sounds and looks like a million!

Right? I heard that too, plus with headphones I can not believe the bass on this thing, an open G chord never sounded so good.

Smile Whoooeeeee

My goodness this thing sounds wonderfully! And Ben is such an expressive player with monster chops and technique. He can really show what this is capable of.

I have very nice Byerdynamic 880 studio pro headphones and my ears are ringing! In a GOOD way

So sorry about BIGer but hope this takes a bit of th pain away...

Have FUN Tom!

What a great video! Ben's excitement is so pure, so joyous. I really enjoyed listening to him talk about and play your guitar, Tom. And of course the instrument itself is simply stunning, sonically and aesthetically. Congratulations on a real beauty

It does sound pretty amazing doesn't it? Cancelling was not fun, but with everything else going on in the world now, it seems pretty minor. We will be fine.

Well it took a little figuring, but I should have this guitar in my hands on Monday. Since I was just prevented from going home to TX by the Governor imposing a mandatory 14 day quarantine for anyone flying to TX from NY, I needed something to cheer me up...no Kathy, but I will have the Nautilox at least.

BTW, the corona outbreak is in NYC, not upstate NY, but I guess that doesn't matter. I suppose people could drive up to Albany from the city and fly down, so because of that, I am prevented from seeing my wife for however long. No Bueno.

Sorry about having to stay in NY without Kathy, in fact it sucks.

Although some cheer to look forward to on Monday. I trust it will be mind blowing.

Certainly glad to hear that wonderful guitar will be in your hands shortly. The travel restrictions are a bear but it is an indication of the times. Hang in there buddy!

Glad to hear that the Nautilox will soon be with you!

Bummed to hear that Kathy is not--as Dennis said, hang in there. These are crazy times we're in right now...

Looking forward to your full review!

I’m fascinated by this guitar. It’s like nothing else out there and it looks and sounds perfect on YouTube. I’m really looking forward to see and hear it in person someday!
