A quick test run by David Kilpatrick on a Fullerton Blackwood parlour guitar I sold on eBay. Shot on the Nikon D5000.

  • Fantastic playing. I just found one of these parlor guitars for $10 at a thrift shop in mint cond.. What gauge/brand of strings are you using on this? Hope I can tweak a sound out of mind as good as yours.

  • @buzzculture - probably Wyres 12-54 set for this, can't remember but it is a short scale so they would not have been 11s, and I do not think I used a DADGAD set ever on this guitar. If you picked up one of these for $10... I'm envious! If what you picked up is an older parlour guitar, it may not be very strong. There's a great set of 11-47 Martin FX Silk and Bronze which is ideal for older guitars if they are not up to full tension 'strength'.

  • Is this camera capable of filming children?

  • @jamzt94 - not really. The Panasonic GF-1 and the Sony NEX-3 and NEX-5 can film children well enough, the Canon 550D and 7D struggle, and the Nikon D5000 will not autofocus during filming. For kids you need autofocus. It will come, but it's slow arriving in DSLRs.

  • Nikon recorded everything - sound is from the built in mic.

  • This video was shot to support an eBay auction of the guitar plus a new gig bag - and the solid brass bridge pins (supplied by Alan Marshall of Northworthy Guitars) which worked better on this guitar than any other I've had, and therefore stay with it. Ebay 260420627985, end June 7 09. Pity in a way to see it go but that makes way to try something else!
