You guessed it...got one at the Summer NAMM.
Got a black one. Don't like gold plating on hardware like thew other models have.

One of the reps was my drummer years ago, and he made it happen before instruments were shipped to the stores.

Like it, and bought a similarly shaped big box Ibanez acoustic last year made of exotic wood.

Little concerned that all that on-board stuff will dramatically shorten the life of the single 9V. battery.


Cool concept, though. The week before, I bought a Parker acoustic for the same kind of jobs. It has no on-board effects, but has individual string piezso's and a neck mounted magnetic pick-up. Concerned about what the merger of Washburn and Parker will do to quality.

Damn, I've turned into a picky old dude!

Now, the new D'Angelico EXL 1DP I ordered Friday is the one I'm REALLY interested in.
