He's fantastic and I'm sure he could play a "Hello Kitty" guitar and it'd sound incredible, BUT, this is the artist, guitar and arrangement of a song that has just blown me away lately! I've listened to this video so many times lately!

However...I still feel that his tone on his Collings is lackluster and average at best, compared to when he plays his 000-18. But that is just me, my feelings. And also YES...Bob Minner is a truly elegant and remarkable musician...and his vintage Gibson banner is a stellar example of what great vintage Gibson tone is all about. duff Be A Player...Not A Polisher |

I love Lage...in a manly way. That Collings is one gorgeous guitar, but tone-wise gimme that 000 every day of the week. No comparison, IMHO.

Not having heard all the examples of Lage on whatever guitars, I will next say that I find this thread somewhat puzzling.
I'm under the impression that Lage plays smaller halls and theaters, but that he's not playing living room house concerts. That would mean that the listeners reporting how they like his concerts based on the model of the guitar they see in his hands and how they perceive it sounding are almost certainly hearing it through the house sound system operated by whoever, either via a microphone or a pickup. And then in some other cases, via a YouTube clip with however it was recorded and compressed. Wouldn't that be a significant variable? Does he switch between guitars during concerts so that it evens out for one soundman and venue? Have those that have formed an impression that the Martin sounds better seen him at least a few times with each model so that they have a field of venues/operators firming up their impressions? This is not a trolling question, it's an honest one about if this other factor was weighed in or is not really significant.
