First : Did you forget to read the second sentence in my post you quoted ? This one Quote:
But even if it is a :magical thing" in and of itself ,,,,,,, That has nothing to do with the OP, or whether or not a barn door inherently diminishes those aesthetics or magic . That observation is subjective, not objective.

I bought an Martin OM15 gloss a few years back on a whim, and I just never being gigged with it, because I hated the K&K pickups in it. So one day, I removed the K&Ks, cut a hole in the side of it, and installed a B-Band barn-door 2 pickup XOM system in it. Now it's a great little gigger. The only aesthetic change is, now I look down at it, and see some EQ, notch filter, battery strength indicator, tuner, and a pickup blend slider, all things that make gigging much easier. I know it's not a real high end guitar, but traditionalists would still blow a fuse of what I did to it Oh yeah I also put a pick-guard on it!

Last year I had a luthier make me a high end acoustic and guess what? I fitted a fishman barn door. Why? I had been using the k&k mini pickup with the k&k pre-amp that hangs off my belt. Great sound but on stage when the extra nerves and time pressure of an open mic performance it just didn't work for me. The eq knobs are small and fiddly, have no detent to know where middle of range is, for me, anyway, a less than optimal experience. Also tried the fishman eq / pre-amp / di that sits on the floor (can't remember name but it's like a large pedal), again the knobs are too far away to easily adjust mid performance. So I went for the barn door to best enhance my experience when on stage and I'm very happy with it. Easy to see the volume and eq settings, easy to adjust same. Still think they are ugly as can be, but mostly from the audience perspective it's not that visible. |
