more apt to be a finger picking or blues, whereas the j 50 is good for banging out chords/ bluegrass/etc and not as optimal for "fingerstyle"

ive got a really tough decision between a 000-15 and this '66 j50 ive found on ebay

ive already tried out the 000-15 but have no way of trying out the j50.

anyone have any input?

[dobrodoc]

they are two different animals. Do you mean a 00015 S (12th fret neck joint)

The J 50 being a dreadnaught will be somewhat louder with more punch on the bass end I suspect. By joining the neck at the 12th fret instead of the 14th you change the sound as well as the string tension on the 00015S. They will play different as well, theJ50 feeling like it is strung "tighter". the 00015 is

Boy that 000-15S sounds rich and sweet

You should hear this with a 5.1 surround system - unbelievable sound and your playing arrangement and performance is absolutedly enchanting.

IMHO, that's Gold Record Material.

I have a 2004 D-15 Dreadnought (mahogany) and love it, but I also have a 65 Gibson LGO. A 000-15S and an N-20 or Spanish Classical would be nice to have in the stable too.

Funny how different guitars can speak to you like a siren, isn't it?

If you were a shop selling, I'd buy.

[dobrodoc]

thanks so much. Yeah, I'd like to get a surround system some day.

Hi, Sounds good on that martin. Great playing.

Just wondering do you have Guitar Tab for this song? I  would really like to learn it.

[dobrodoc]

No, I can't read tab. This is my own original arrangement.

thanks so much for listening

I love the sound of that Martin. I did a top ten BTMV list for a recently project. This made the cut out of scores I listened to. I like your straight ahead arraignment and good playing.

[AnthonyE1778]

I like this arrangement. Quiet and simply yet with a driving sense of momentum. Simply lovely. You've got some great talent!

[mosfet33]

Great sound dobrodoc.

It is true that changes the sound in relation to a 14th fret, due to the biggest box of 12th fret. But I do not have to vary the tension of the strings would have the same scale.

[sheilamaclean]

Joyous.

[wingsaseagles1]

Just a tad too fast but overall very well played in your chord changes.

[bkstump]

Wow!

nah just the regular 000-15. on paper, the smaller body size of the 000-15 would make more sense for me, as i personally find it much more comfortable, along with the fact that the majority of my playing is fingerstyle. however, after I played it i was left feeling slightly disappointed--the sound wasn't what i expected, especially after i compared it to a dreadnought (a D-16GT) -- and there's my dilemma.
