    So sweet a tone, especially those trebles. If I were stranded on a desert island, this would be the guitar I'd want, plus a good microphone, lots of strings & picks....

      It would sure be a good one to have no doubt! I agree on the strings and Picks; Palm leaves and coconut shells may make a man’s tone suffer lol. 🤣 on the other hand, they might help my sound lol.

    I had a Gibson G45 Studio for a couple years, only around $850 at the time, but I liked it, not the best for gospel/bluegreass style, so I sold it. Gibsons are great for like, modern folk/americana too. This guitars sound has a trampled by turtles vibe to the sound somehow, but he plays a Martin lol. God bless.

      Do you like your historical re-issue? Everyone that I know who has owned one, has absolutely raved about it! At first, I thought that was what Garrick was sending me, after I figured out it was a actual 34, well, I just didn’t know what to think about that lol.

    • @markus.seiler
      @markus.seiler 2 года назад +2

      @@ShawnBrockMusic I absolutely love it. It has restored my faith in Gibson acoustics. Listening to your comments about the neck, I wonder how close they got with the reissue. It has a neck shape to die for... chunky with a slight V but not uncomfortable. It just sits really well in your hands. As you put 12s on this one, I just have to mention the Martin Titanium 12s that absolutely lift this guitar to a different level for me. Nickel Bronze D'addario's work equally as well. Thanks again for all the outstanding playing and the demos. You've become an incredible tone resource of late. :)

    It doesn't sound like a comparable D-18 but it's so good in it's own way. That old timey song you play between 6:00 - 6:30 is just sublime and lovely, and the same is true of the melodic country stuff you were playing. I don't think it's a bluegrass guitar but it's definitely a guitar that needs medium strings and a flatpick to live up to its potential.

    • @ShawnBrockMusic
      @ShawnBrockMusic  2 года назад +1

      Right! Totally different sound than Martin. Gibsons generally record pretty nice, I guess that is why the J-45 is said to be the most recorded guitar in history.

    I’ve never been much of a Gibson guy until I played a Gibson Advanced Jumbo. They were long scale and rosewood. Blew my dang socks off! And it was a reissue. I can’t even imagine playing a old one. That sucker was always the loudest guitar in the room. So light and resonant it was unbelievable.

    • @ShawnBrockMusic

    wow what a huge, dry, resonant sound Shawn..One of the best sounding early Gibby's I have heard. Great bottom end/balance. Sound is reminisent of an early pre war D18 but maybe a little dryer. BC42 pick again? I wonder what the weight is on this.. I would bet it is under 4 lbs
