Should have it in a few days. The demos on the web page sound good, but that was someone WAY better than me playing it. Other folks here have said they are decent, so I took a flyer. Can't take even a dime with me when I go so I may as well have t he toys I want now, right?

That is one sweet looking guitar. When you get it record something with it so I can hear what it sounds like.

Nice guitar sir! Was this the need you had for a slimmer guitar to fit over your belly? I remember some words about that a while back.

Nice looking guitar Eddie, the CL Nashville-Nylon NT, did look it up as tempted myself.

Does say on reviews that it does need to be plugged in, as more like a solid body.

Seems great value for money.

Enjoy.

As Roy Clark used to say it Pooks out in the same place he did, speaking of his Ovation 12 string that he would play sometimes, Maleguena.


My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.

Yes it is solid and makes very little sound acoustically. Loud enough to practice quietly with if need be. Watched several review videos and it sounds quite nice. Good strings and good amp wouldn't hurt it I am sure.

I don't see any sound holes so I won't know until I get it. I can't imagine it "must" be plugged in...

Similar to the old Gibson Chet Atkins CEC models before they changed them to be more like the Kirk Sands model that inspired them. Can't beat the price around $250 plus shipping and case if you want one.

when will somebody make a guitar with a CONCAVE back to fit the pot-bellied older men who play guitar??

Or a non-skid surface on the bottom so it doesn't slide off the leg while playing?

A guitar foot rest can really help:

This along with a guitar strap can really help!

I bought 1 inch wide non-skid strips for my dog's ramp. They would work and the adhesive would not (get THIS pun) marr your guitar.

Tracking shows he is in the USA and clearing customs. I hope if they included desiccant packs they were REALLY desiccant packs and nothing funny to be snorted later...

I am thinking that I might discuss with a local luthier we have here (REALLY good!) cutting those inlays out and turning them into sound holes. He'd put a camera inside and look at the construction before we even really talk about it. If it would include cutting tone bars, forget it. It may sound great as is and if it requires being plugged in, so be it. God invented wireless for a reason...

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
