They are all USA made. Price wise, it sounds like a lot and I don’t understand the solid rim either. On the other hand, try finding a decent, used, es-175 for under 4K. I’ll guess they saw that...

Heritage now offering the H-575 as part of their Core Collection Series

Good suggestion, but 2 different animals, both in tone, and feel. The PM200 has a much deeper body, and the single pickup gives it a different tone from the PM120 which is a two pickup guitar, so the...

I thought they were but haven't kept up. Was thinking $4.5K and $6K are a lot for a laminate and the price, in addition to the requisite marketing, is propelled by the cost of doing business in the...

How to make roundwound strings sound like flatwounds?

My Sakura 175 copy has the post and no bracing. Actually it looks pretty shoddy and with the fake humbuckers! I don't believe the post is a repair for a sunken top, I think it's instead of bracing...

Part 2 Secrets to McCoy Tyner using 4ths, pentatonics and Side-Stepping over Gm7

Gotta laugh at the Paul Gilbert reference. Since I started this thread a little while ago I did experiment with changing the angle of the pick to the strings. I'd have to have my guitar up pretty...

How to make roundwound strings sound like flatwounds?

Bone actually conducts sound much better than wood. That's the main reason why bone is used on flat-tops. Whether the sound is better is a subjective opinion. I believe it depends on the guitar. ...

Hi Alan, Thanks for your response. That's my understanding as well. I just thought it was interesting that F6o amounts to using the harmonized D natural minor scale over Dmin7 which implies a...

Hmmm... now that I've learned to edge pick I LOVE it, particularly the way that the pick does not catch on the strings nearly as much. I would suggest experimenting with pick grip and angle a bit...

How to make roundwound strings sound like flatwounds?
