You make it sound great Jim.

Really a bit unfair.
You are playing it.

Not some dude like me that would make sounds like a cat getting its tail caught in a door!

Thanks RTZ. I'm not anti Chinese goods but I'm extremely partial to homemade stuff. My $20 Joyo pedals (chorus and delay) work and sound great though I rarely use them nowadays. I liked my first RK dreadnought enough that I purchased the parlor size also. I play the bigger one for gigs but practice on the parlor since my shoulder starts to hurt after about an hour of reaching over the dreadnought. I understand they are prone to bridge lift and cracked tops but after almost a year of pretty heavy use no probs (knock on solid wood top) I'm still saving for the Martin I want for the gigs where I need to flatpick but the RK will do 'till then.

Well I don't like Chineze stuff but I do use some, and the good stuff I find that I like my $29 Donner chorus pedal you just cant find made here. Nice that you found a fiddle case with a free fiddle. At Christmas I was online shopping I came across a Recording King parlor all solid wood under $300 got one for myself, first one looked great but had a cracked top second doing great.

And this puts the CBN question to rest, can Jim Morris make a piece of s#!t sound good.

Yup Andries, it's a good bargain if you can stand to play something you didn't make yourself! I still haven't made a real good acoustic 6 string so for many gigs I play one called Recording King. Made in China and real good sound for not much money.

Thanks all. I was surprised that with just a bit of set up work it was playable and the tone was less awful than I imagined it would be!
