Excellent picking, 000-18GE wins with its warmth.

I think the Martin wins. It has a more realistic and classic American - Bluegrassy sound and a more piercing
and woody attack. It seems to transport me back in time more. Thanks for playing
that befits this comparison well .

I liked the C10 best. Very clear articulate and pretty sound. The Martin had a nice warm sound but didn't sound as rich to me. The OM sounded thin in comparison to both the others. I didn't feel a depth. I was axious to hear the OM as that might be size I would be interested in in the future. Would have liked to hear the same wood combinations.

I'd be interested to hear your opinion.

thanks for taking your time to listen and i really enjoyed hearing your feedback! I like them all, of course, but the OM get the most use from me for various reasons.  All the best,

That's a great comparison. I really like how the fretted notes on the collings sound very much like open strings--quite loud with a lot of ring. Do you feel that way when you play it? The Martin has just a beautiful swee, smooth sound

thanks for taking your time to listen and post! The Collings have a bit different tone than the Martin which is a great thing - and i think your description is very good - the Collings have a piano like clear ring - the Martin is classic. Thanks again,
dale
