    Thanks, guys - I've been enjoying getting used to the Tacoma - it just has a great, big sound with nice smooth harmonics and a great ring, and is so easy to play - it's making me practice more, and now that school is out I'm planning a more regular practice regimen. I hope to feel in a different place with my playing by summer's end...

    Whoa Ted!

    I *need* an acoustic & yours seems perfect.

    ...so when can I expect delivery?

    Jimi,

    I'd oblige with at least a few chords, but I don't have any recording gear...

    Hey, nice to have you back around these parts! Hope that you are back to 100%!

    Do you play any fingerstyle blues? Does your Tacoma have a good thump on the bottom strings for driving those kinda tunes?

    I have never played an acoustic & this guitar sounds like a winner.

    tOt - no acoustic?! This is the golden age of the acoustic, so they say - everyone needs an acoustic! I've been practicing fingerstyle as well as flatpicking as I go, and this guitar certainly strikes me as having a good, solid bottom end, but I haven't played enough to make solid comparisons (say with a Martin or Gibson).

    Not only no acoustic, but I've never really played one (aside from a few moments here & there in guitar stores).
