Collings D2H VN #18318 Acoustic Guitar Demo

[Rocker8822]

Is there any processing? Reverb? compression? or just raw?

[soundpurestudios]

@Rocker8822 No fancy processing- hard pan left/right with the mics, no compression, no EQ, a tiny splash of Bricasti Reverb, but just enough to add a little space.... then, unfortunately, youtube compression!

Feel free to shoot us any questions about the gear or recording path to audio@soundpure(dot)com, or feel free to request the high resolution audio file (full res at 88.2k 24-bit so that you can listen in your studio)

We are glad to help any way that we can...

how does the vintage now feature differ from the other d2h's?

[soundpurestudios]

@ThisIsntLukeKim The "vintage now" specs are different string spacing and neck profile. It's a subtle difference for most, but some players prefer a little wider spacing and rounder neck like this one

what's the song that the man is playing??thanks ;) from italy!

[soundpurestudios]

@pocia13 Sorry, not sure about the name, Keith does a ton of improvisation on the spot, but it's Keith Ganz playing ! Hope that helps some...

[pocia13]

@soundpurestudios ok thanks!..the song is amazing! ;)

[Onetruthrgv]

If I may give my opinion, I think finger picking and blue grass is a great way to show the instruments full potential in sound but a lot of us are strumming when it comes to the acoustic. Maybe you should have more videos showing more strumming like in a pop/folk sort of manner to appeal to musicians like myself.

[soundpurestudios]

@Onetruthrgv If you are serious about making a guitar upgrade with us, we can help you narrow the focus, and even send you sound clips of a particular instrument doing exactly what you'd like to hear to confirm it's what you are after. We continue to post as much diverse playing as we can, but obviously it is entirely impossible to please everyone- some people want jazz, others want classical (yes, on a steel string guitar), quite honestly the requests are essentially endless- doing our best!

I hope ya'll don't mind. I promise I'm not spamming :)

[soundpurestudios]

@tman916x We certainly don't mind, what's at :09?

[tman916x]

@soundpurestudios The beginning of this guy's playing.

[soundpurestudios]

@tman916x Well that's true, I'm just not sure why you wrote that? All of our videos have an intro, and begin at that moment in time.

[tman916x]

Maaaaaaaan I know this is a video about the guitar but that guy's playing is magical! I keep rewinding the vid to try and figure out what he's playing.

[soundpurestudios]

@tman916x Absolutely no worries, glad to hear that you liked it. I think that Keith found the guitar itself inspiring...
