NGD: 2019 McKnight Tottie (vs Vintage 1840s Martin)
Tim McKnight was so impressed by my recently purchased Size 1 Martin guitar from the 1840s that he decided to introduce a new model (the Tottie) based on that parlor-sized guitar.
I've put the same strings on both of these guitars (Ernie Ball Earthwood Silk and Steel Extra Soft: .010-.050) and had a friend of mine play them both for a comparison. I'm pretty amazed how similar they do sound (they sounded a lot more different before I put the same strings onto the McKnight Tottie that were on the Martin). Here's some video comparisons (shot on an iPhone using a high-end mic that attached to it). Sorry, don't know what mic was used . . forgot to ask. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmDc7l6G5GM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUsR0U4Jw0k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eWE0MxsXSw Last edited by SongwriterFan; 04-26-2019 at 04:04 PM.

Congrats on the McKnight! One day I hope to meet both Tim and Mary and get a chance to play one of their guitars.
