    I actually hate the sound. To me, it kind of sounds like a kids toy guitar with nylon strings.

    You are where Hendrix was when he tired of the " normal" sound of his guitar. he started experimenting with high volumes and different different concepts of music which eventually ended in Electric Ladyland, carry on

    Honestly, sounds like a toy guitar. I suppose orangewood did the market research and saw a demand. I'm so biased after nearly 55 years of guitar playing that if its not my Martin D-28, well, you know.

    The "muted" drone type sound peaked in the 60s with the double muted Gretsch Country Gents. Felt vs. rubber, i get it, but the bridge is set up very similar to an Indian Tambura. Without the "microtuner" beads behind the bridge, that thing will be impossible to properly intonate. Gretsch already makes a similar standard bridge model for less than $200. Sliding in a piece of rubber roundstock wouldn't be that difficult. IDK, I'm not a fan of Indie music, i can't even bring myself to call it rock at all. We used to rollup paper cardstock just behind the regular bridge to get a similar sound on my Martin D28 for one particular song but it was impossible to do live , so i used a felt wedge in front of the bridge and got better dynamics. I think I'm hating on it mostly because of that one song, it was horrible.

    Another tonal choice in the studio but not versatile enough for most live use. But yeah, another flavor.

    Instead of buying another guitar, shouldn't that effect be possible by just putting a rubber "onlay" between the bridge and the strings instead of the bone inlay? Or alternatively weave a thin leather strip around the strings close to the bridge? I know I'm a cheapskate... 😁

    @georgemoore7231 4 месяца назад

    While I really like and look forward to Sean’s videos, I just don’t share his admiration for the sound of rubber bridges. It just muffles and mutes the sound of the guitar too much. There may be some limited applications where that muted sound is useful, but for general playing, I think it smothers the high end tones that make the guitar the wonderful instrument it is.

      Muted rubber bridge sounds great in a mix.
      Gives loads of space for other frequencies unlike ordinary acoustics that can flood the frequency range of other instruments.
