Lamorna is my pick, they all sound great though and very nicely played.

LOL! The best guitar I ever owned was a slothead. Best tone & playability ever! I sold it for the slothead reason alone! Oh the pain! Changing strings is a nightmare!

Is that a Schoeps I see you are using? And if so what capsule?

Thanks for the kind comments!

Thanks very much Skip!

That was simply lovely. Thanks for posting.

I went back and listened to all of them again and I still think the Torridge is the winner.

Thanks. I'm playing the Lamorna as much as 90% of my guitar playing time at the moment.

Lovely playing too.

A great showcase for Brook guitars, it proves to me that they are all really good! I can understand folks wanting different sizes/voices.

Thanks. The opinions are fairly even across all 3 guitars..............

The video is a really interesting demo for me of the changes in overtone levels of the different back and sides - mahogany is driest, walnut in the middle somewhere and rosewood the most overtone heavy. I like them all but probably the walnut or rosewood are my favourite.

Thanks for the input Peter.

Thanks Kevin. Changing strings mainly, absolute pain but I also prefer the look of a 'normal' flat peghead
