If I bought this guitar I’d be in poor valley 😂

Hi Adam，You play the vintage style guitar with such full,mellow,sweet notes.May I ask what picks you use and what is the 000-18's distress level? Thank you so much!

Wonderful!

Sounds nice and clear.

Great playing. Guitar sounds good.

How did you find the tone difference between the D1A and this one?

Collings

How about comparison to pre-war you have? Adam

That Martin D28 Authentic 1937 sounds pretty great! Do they use Rio Rosewood for back and sides?

Yesir

That was beautiful man, your attack is so smooth

Im using this as the excuse I need to get a prewar BRW

That’s a beautiful sounding D-18. Fine picking too.

Feel like it's been awhile! Watchhouse writes songs that my heart would sing if it could!!!!

Hey Adam, You know of any pre war that could be bought right now? I’m in the market for one, but don’t know where to look, any pointers or direction you could provide? Or would you just suggest sending in a deposit and waiting ? Thanks

Im realky late to the party. Do you by chance know of anyone who is selling a Collings DS1 or Collings Ds2h? 12 fret dreads is my thing. Thank you!

Really beautiful playing, Sir!

Would love to this and the D1AV compared

all sound amazing I'm kinda partial to the pre=war deeper sound.

Great playing and great guitar. What picks do you use? I love your videos

Is it sold? I am not on Facebook and I didn’t see it on the Martin forum

Sounds great man! Is that the MT2 or MT2-V (varnish)?

Great tone brother

Do it again!

Shhhwweeeet picking man!

What a huge sounding 000.. Do you still own it?

These videos are so money for learning these fiddle tunes. Clear, concise and dialed. Thanks my friend!

Whenever I watch a comparison, I always look to see where the pick is relative to the sound hole. Too far back, more 'bite', too far up, much softer. Yours was very consistent so it makes a better comparison. The Collings sounds brighter and that's what I experienced when I test drove one years ago. The Martin sounded softer which is fine- what matters is what happens when the volume is turned up. Does the Collings get fatter, and the Martin get brighter? Perhaps they both meet in the middle when under stress. Those Texas boys have certainly carved-out a niche in a crowded market with the Collings. I'd pick either one and grin a lot. Nice video, great playing.

Nice! You missed the brief B minor chord in the B part tho 😊😄

Pre-War was like a combination of the Martin with more clarity similar to the Collings.

Hey currently own an OM28 authentic 1931. Would this be a good guitar to have as contrast?

i can tell there is something missing on the colling, if this guys sells the the martin, you will miss the martin tone...if you sell the collings you will not miss it, kind of like an electric guitar tone if that sense ...that tone kind of irritates after a while...happened to me...jmtc

mahogany vs rosewood again ...nice guitars...no so much for the pre-war

Pre war has that richness I would want …. All three are so different and have individual characteristics. Interesting vid

The D1AT wins the comparison with my ears. Really balanced, full and clear with great separation. PW sounded nice too.

I’ll be getting mine around January, I went with the natural finish, 30’s neck and level 2 distressing. Very stoked. This guitar sounds incredible.

I almost pulled the trigger on a new one of these a couple weeks ago.... but that price...dagnabit I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Maybe I will sell my Martin 1937 D-28 Authentic to raise some $$.

Awesome

Pre war!

Damn! The Collins wins!

I'll take the Pre War, thank you.

how would you compare nb vs the el17’s??

sounds like a great guitar to me

Are you selling this guitar? It sounds amazeballs. I aspire to be as good a couch picker as you. Thanks for the great vids

How do you learn these different songs? Can you angle camera more level with the fretboard so I can learn some of these tunes?!

Wonderful playing as usual!

Put my order in this week for an OM hog. Now waiting for 2 years is going to be hard

Adam that was awesome picking. Thanks for doing the comparison. The sound of the Collings was the most enjoyable for me. Each note is so clear and powerful. The Martin and the Pre-War are also great sounding guitars. I have both Martin and Collings guitars. It depends what mood I’m in as to which is my favorite on a given day.

Excellent Adam!!!
