    • Let me put it this way a friend of mine brought his 5000.00 Taylor to my house to gloat and supposedly show me how a great guitar sounds

    • An acoustic guitar booster for a reasonable price that can really make a regular acoustic guitar sound like a more expensive one it also sounds like equalization is increasing the brightness and bass notes too,Remember a large o port means a standard size acoustic and a small o port means usually the size of a flamenco guitar, I own one of each also its good to know this is a daddario product that make quality products like strings too!!!
