Where's the random BBC screaming in the background?

Sounds nice. I like the tone you got out of it.

Thanks [mention]liv_rong[/mention]

It's just the little Fishman condenser built into the inside the guitar.

I have always loved the sound I can get from it.

When I was playing gigs it was awesome, it also has a bridge piezo that you can blend with the mic.

Pretty cool.

Jeeze i must have missed this the first go around. Very nice MT.

That does sound amazing. So there is actually a little mic inside the guitar somewhere? Did you add that to it or is that how you got it?

Yeah it had a mic inside. It came installed on the guitar.

It is one of the reasons I bought this one.

I think the mic is actually that silver disc in the second photo here.

Well I'll be damned. Wouldja lookit that. I don't know why i thought you had a Taylor but a Martin is just as good and likely better. What a great rig.

I wonder what my acoustic has in it now? Definitely not that i don't think. I'll dig it out here in a little bit.

Pretty interesting feature I never use is the jack is TRS so you can go stereo with the mic on one side the bridge piezo on the other.

Holy cow. That thing is bloody workhorse MT. All that and it sounds really good already just mic'd on it's own!!

Hey [mention]musicturtle[/mention] do you recall the model number of your acoustic guitar?

I've got a friend that's shopping for a new acoustic. He's mainly a live performer but he's been dabbling in recording lately as well. When he said he wanted an electro-acoustic, I immediately thought of how good the guitar sounds in this video and wanted to point him towards whatever model you're using here.

[mention]Tadpui[/mention] it is a Martin DC-16GTE.

I believe it is a discontinued model but there seem to be some new ones floating around on Reverb and the like.

Not an inexpensive guitar either. I have had mine for almost 20 years though and it has held up well.

Thanks for the info! Those look like great guitars. I see one on Reverb for about $1500, but that might be out of his budget. I'm just having trouble recommending anything that only has the under-saddle piezo pickup since those sound so awful. The pickup system in yours sounds stellar.

This is a link to the pickup system if that helps.

There may be other guitars/manufacturers who use it.

Or he could buy it and have it installed in on he already owns.
