I'm also not hearing any distortion on the high notes. Just the reverb tail (which seems maybe digital?). But again, I'm not listening through my studio monitors.

You may be interested to know that your album recording of your piece 'Cairo' is one of the reference recordings I go back to, often. Kym |

Contemporarily my favorite (in terms of recording sonic) is McManus. Chris Eldridge and Julian Lage are capturing some of the most beautiful acoustic tones I've ever heard. Thomas Oliver when he's doing his Weissenborn stuff still gives me goosebumps. I also really like much of the tones of Martin Simpson. Not by any stretch a "solo guitar" effort but the tones on Trails and Tribulations is outstanding. I'm just not a big fan of his blues stuff, not my cup of tea. I of course like Bensusan as well but his stuff get a tad crisp for me. By the way none of the criticisms here have anything to do with talent, just tones. I like Martin Tallstrom but really more for his touch and technique than strictly his tone. In terms of more of a combo/group representation of acoustic guitar Ron Block is my favorite. Dan Tyminski right there as well. |

Another version..
Hi Barry
You inspired me to learn this piece and also to try and get a sound close to Al’s (which is difficult without his guitar playing skills ;-) Here it is - let me know what you think;

Nice Peter! It sounds closer to the original than mine even over my phone. I posted another version in a different thread that got me closer though than what I started with. I'm going to try my large condenser mic, an mxl, but I may have to sneak in a pair of the at2020 mics at some point, lol. They sound very good.

Thanks Barry. I haven’t tried any others to compare them to to be honest, it they seem like good value for a starter set.
