NEAG Day

[Woody Sound]

Used, and actually a couple of months in now, my retirement gift to myself before acknowledging "fixed income" life. Wonderful Carvin/Kiesel AC375 electric acoustic, no longer in production, and in an extremely rare all Koa. (The only one I've ever seen.) iPhone pictures don't do the Koa justice, it's stunning. Check out the neck. The Fishman pickup system sounds absolutely fantastic. Sparkly crisp, round, and deep. With the right eq-ing, can even mimic a gypsy guitar. Did an entire run of "Fiddler" through a Genzler AA Mini, that's all, received many compliments from the producers and some audience guitar knowledgeables.

Is that Genzler the one that’s a.k.a. the Mini Array - 4 tweeters in a column inside the combo box? How is it?

Congrats Woody.

I've always wanted to try a Carvin. Their fingerboards always look great.

Yes, I have both the full AA Pro, and the Mini. I have never had the need to bring the big boy out. The Mini fills it. Sort of a more FR version of a H Bud. FWIW, Jeff Genzler is very accessible and a great guy. When he sold off Genz-Benz and started his own line, I bought into them. Mostly bass amps, but killer clean acoustics.

I have the Mesa Rosette 2x8 which I understand was designed by Andy Fields after Mesa hired him away from Genz-Benz. Very good accurate reproduction of the acoustics. Been reading about speaker arrays and the way they eliminate frequency cancellations inherent in side by side arrangements. I played in a rock band where the other guitarist used one of those Bose columns. Learned to hate it. His sound was everywhere and couldn’t be sonically located with eyes closed. There’s the bass, the drums, singer, one guitar over there and another guitar just - everywhere. But in a small combo box that issue may disappear.

For perspective, the Pro and the Mini.

PS - There is AA-Pro on Reverb right now in the Tacoma area for $700 / Make Offer. That is an INCREDIBLE buy. One of the finest and most powerful acoustic combos you you can buy, and sounds glorious with archtops too. No affiliation.

Congratulations buddy. Nice looking guitar and I like the glossy finish, is that correct?
