Wow, thanks! What a compliment. I miss this guitar, one of the few I regret selling. Luckily it now lives at a mates house just down the road so I do get to play it occasionally :)
What a lovely sounding guitar. Back before the 2008/9 worldwide financial meltdown I ran a small shop selling acoustic guitars, including Blueridge, Walden and Ayers guitars. These three makers produced guitars with tones which were rich, sonorous, complex and not overly bright. It's actually hard to find guitars with this calibre of tone nowadays, where almost every maker of acoutistic guitars makes them exceedingly bright and brittle, and these are not at all to my taste. Some vintage Gibson slope-shouldered dreanaughts and LG-0s have these same tonal characteristics of being rich and sonorous, and occasionally some Martins, but honestly my experience is very disheartening among guitars that most people can afford.

Thanks, but I am not very good. It's the open tuning, much easier to play and sound good in!
u just don't realize how good u r. u remind me of nick drake, another genius who was a master of alternate tunings.
