+jbudlives Yeah Olson is great instrument, probably the best , but not so many people can afford to play 13.500$ Olson, ? Doyle loves to play pre - war guitars to. and he doesn't think about price, because no needs to.. So many people do not appreciate Ovation, but he does. We would all like to play an Olson, or Greenfield, and list goes on .. but so few can give away 13.000$ or even more. I play Larrive L-03R and I like it, it is solid guitar, and it wasn't cheap though, cause I've bought it new 1600$, but I dream about other guitars to. Who from guitar players don't do that? It seems to me as I would need a life time to pay for dream guitar and I feel there is something really wrong with the world if I need half of my life time salary to pay for some great instrument and satisfie my passion for it, Not that I don't want it, oh I do, but it is world, it is burning desire to have something that you can't have. What have they done to all of us..
+simpe zulu I have been playing the guitar professionally for over 40 years. I have owned hundreds of guitars. Many in the three to four thousand dollar range. I now absolutely refuse to pay more than $1000 for a guitar. Today's inexpensive guitars are pretty impressive. I have earned most of my money the past 10 playing MIM Strats. And a $999 Taylor 210ce acoustic. I constantly get compliments on my tone from these guitars. Believe me, I am not a guitar slob at all. I am also a Fender Certified guitar and amp tech and have been for many years. If a guitar has a good neck and plays in tune. I can get a useable tone. But I can still appreciate the excellent tone of a high dollar guitar. I would never pay $13,000 for an Olson or any other guitar. Even if I won a twenty million dollar lottery! I get a much bigger kick milking guitars under a thousand for all I can. BTW, I have owned a few Ovations in my time and loved them!
Doyle to me has something more..it is like he has been touched with spirit, his songs are filled with emotions, he has particular technical style that is very hard to mimic...but it does worth it once you learn to play just one of his arrangements and than you realize how far he went with his guitar approach that is like no other...,
Mr Dukes has officially become one of my favorite guitarist 🤗
May God bless you Doyle, always, forever. Your gift is clearly from God. Amen.
Doyle is a genius on guitar
Simply beautiful!
What a difference at 6:30 when he puts the Ovation down and picks up the other guitar. Much better tone!
stringbender57 The Olson always wins.

+stringbender57 Apples and oranges. He seems to like Ovations enough to play one, so nothing else matters, except for snobs.
+stringbender57 btw, bassier tone doesn't necessarily mean better tone. The Olson is a GREAT guitar, but so is Ovation, at least the best ones.

. . . that's how you do that. . .
Great tone but bad piece of music. The endings go on a bit.
Just saw your comment,post your stuff,if you criticize this,you must be amazing!lol
They are standard hymns. He doesn’t play the contemporary junk you like.

When you can hold the rapt attention of other musicians like that, you must be doing something right.
Amazing!!! Never get tired of hearing Doyle play. Perfection in my ears!
Wonderful I'm going to buck the trend here , I just love the sound of the Adamas , alway have done but the Olson is truly 1st class
Sacred music which has a Godly message can never be considered bad.
Thanks for posting
Wonderful arrangements

Wonderful "How Great Thou Art" on the Olson. Different from that of the Guild.
