Oh, very good, no wonder the guitar feels so comfortable! I will remember that -- 1.75" nut width! Thanks again for checking back!  - Glenn

Thank you for the very thoughtful comments! I have always kind of secretly lusted after the D-45, too, just like you, but never thought that I would ever own one. And really, I was looking into the D-45V when I saw a review of the D-45 for 2018 with forward shifted scalloped bracing. And I thought, whoa! Just what a want and with a low oval neck shape, which really suits me well. I'm so pleased that you like my rendition of this Stills song! Thanks so much for your comments! - Glenn

Yes, this is a magical time, to discover a guitar like this at my age after all these years of playing. Whenever I get a new guitar, I always tend to feel unworthy. Then that feeling goes away after a bit and then I just feel elated. I am already moving into the elated phase! Thanks again for your encouragement! - Glenn

Most excellent! You nailed it!
Your growing choice of guitars to use is also very impressive! Congrats on the D45 (I couldn't help but sing some harmony to your recording) (I also played a little claw hammer banjo to it) You inspired me!

That was really great Glenn. Love that Martin rumble, the power in that guitar is frightening. And also that top end shimmer that 40 series Martins seem to posses.
The vocals, really good Glenn, not easy to hold that melody, especially at that high pitch ! Wait till she opens up more, lordy.

Thank you so much! Actually, the video used 3 cameras, but two out of the three are not terribly expensive. With enough light, they work fine! The crew on the video was just me, 3 cameras on tripods. The movement of the cameras, the panning and zooming, was all done later with the video programming. Thanks for your comments! - Glenn

Glenn, what a haunting and beautiful song. The bottom end from your new guitar is soooo satisfying - wonderful! This is one of my favorite recordings of yours

How very nice to hear from you! I'm very glad that you, too, like the sound of this guitar. It really is a pretty phenomenal guitar! Thanks for the kind words and congrats! Also, thanks for the comments on the singing! I was warmed up and had been singing the song for a few days, so that helps in hitting those high notes. - Glenn

I'm so glad you like this piece! And I agree with you! I love the low end bass on this guitar, but I also appreciate that that bass does not overwhelm the other frequencies coming off the guitar. Regarding the song, yes, it is haunting, which is another reason I like the song. Apparently Stephen Stills wrote the song after visiting one of the American Civil War battleground sites. There are so many true stories of those poor guys (on both sides of the war) being out all night in miserable conditions, exposed to all the elements of nature, maybe wounded horribly, waiting for the morning to come and hoping to reach the daylight. So many wounded never made it to daylight after a long night of suffering. To those who have been exposed to such things, they know the cost of freedom in a very personal way. - Glenn
