I bought one of the Sable's and it is hands down incredible sounding. And it blows the minds of people who hear it whenever they see it when I'm playing it.
Here's the deal, your videos convinced me. Plays Phil Keaggy's solo acoustic pieces really, really well! This is definitely a Swiss army knife guitar. Looking forward to using this to lead worship. Thank you!
I've owned 2 Taylors for almost 20 years, they were my worship guitar workhorses at my church...I just got this Sable about 6 months ago, and I love it move than my 810 & 614. If you're considering the Sable but aren't sure about the sound.....I'm telling you now, get one You won't regret it.
Hey guys mikey here from the band 7eventh Time Down. I just recorded one of these for a recent project I produced. I used a pair of km184s I put one on the 12th fret angled in towards the body and a little up towards the sound hole and one over the right shoulder angled straight down! It really did sound fantastic. I’ve recorded everything from Gibsons, to Collins, Taylor and Martins. And this was definitely different, but definitely awesome!
I bought a Sable a couple of years ago and absolutely LOVE it. I can't believe how good it sounds plugged in. Always in tune. Perfect neck. Killer guitar. My buddy on stage was making fun of it not being a wood guitar. Man, I don't even know what to say about that lol. I love wood guitars too and the history of them duhhhhh, but this guitar is da bomb!
Just picked up one of these a few months ago. Was blessed enough to find it hanging used at my local guitar center for $2199. Plays like a dream! Best acoustic I’ve played hands down!
You guys should review an Emerald X20. I know you did the Virtuo, but that is primarily an electric guitar- basically a hollow body electric. The X20 has some big fans out there.
I’ll be doing some recording soon and I’ll compare to my wood mcphersons. I’ve compared them before and the sable sounds great. So far I’ve mic’d the soundhole with earthworks SR25s.
How would you recommend micing my sables with two earthworks SR25 mics? You said one close and one far. Can you explain what you’d recommend as far as distance and placement for each mic??
I almost brought one of these, but the biggest problem is that they sound the same no matter where you play, and that is a downside to me. Also, the pickups just sound like someone rolled a tone knob on an electric way down.
These guitars buzz so terribly bad. If you are a strummer stay away. The necks are basically flat. I went through two touring models and they buzzed so bad they were unplayable. They were returned. I have a Sable that has already been sent back to McPherson for a neck reset. They said they made the saddle slot deeper and now the pickup sounds horrible. I am part of the acoustic guitar forum. Two other members of that forum sent their Sables in for beck resets. Just a word of caution, play it before you buy it.
Sound Great, But not as Good as a Quality Woodern Guitars. In Australia we are Blessed with Amazing Guitar Builders, And Amazing Acoustic Players including, Tommy Emmanuel, Joe Robinson. I'll Put, High End Maton, Cole Clark and Fenech Guitars up Against Most Acoustics from Around the World...
I really appreciate what Ur doing thanks for that . actually have just join this lesson my name is Pretty patience Sabrina am(14) yrs old from Uganda, Kampala the city, I love singing and playing a guitar.
Genuinely curious here - why not? It's interesting you say that because there are several comments on here about how great it sounds. And we love them. Nothing wrong with having an opinion of course. I would understand if you said you didn't prefer it. But saying it doesn't sound good is interesting to me so I'm curious.
One of the issues is sustainability. I think as Christians we should be looking at using sustainable and environmentally conscious tools to worship God with. Carbon Fibre is not great. The production is environmentally bad and disposal of waste along with recycling is not possible. So for me, sustainably sourced wood guitars will always come out on top.

Glad to see a new video on the awesome McPherson Sable.
I live in Wisconsin.
Not far from Sparta, where these are built.
Wisconsin winter?
Perfect guitar.
Sounds like a piano

Not related to the guitar, just wanna say “just say Jesus” is one of my favorites by you guys!
@@Dannyvm27 amazing! Thanks for sharing! Blessings.
Thanks for sharing that, and I love your music. Where can we hear your new music with the sable??
Sounds incredible! Beautiful guitars! I absolutely love mine!

Ha it’s true - these guitars sound (literally) unbelievable. Like nobody would believe a carbon guitar would sound this good.
Just picked up one of these a few months ago. Was blessed enough to find it hanging used at my local guitar center for $2199. Plays like a dream! Best acoustic I’ve played hands down!
Bradford was definitely about to get into some fun shenanigans with that downtune
Oh it got silly
Thanks for the demo! I’m definitely looking into picking one of these up at some point

That is one of my dream guitar actually
Y'all are amazing! Keep up the good work!

More Fuller guitar playing content! Forgot how much he shreds
It sounds like its buzzing when its strummed on the high strings.
I live in East Texas where the humidity really tweaks my guitars. I am wondering if Carbon Fiber might be the solution?
How would you recommend micing my sables with two earthworks SR25 mics? You said one close and one far. Can you explain what you’d recommend as far as distance and placement for each mic??
Is the pick up everything it should be?
What string gauge do you find works best as they ship with mediums? I purchased one last year in Nashville and love it.
I like regular lights. 12-53. I like Cleartone phosphor bronze strings
What is the price of this Carbon Sable?
I have one of these! It sounds great.
If you used your Martin IR for acoustic with the touring you probably wouldn’t be able to tell at all that it was a smaller body
To my ear it’s missing the warmth of a Martin or even a Taylor.

First?.. 😅
Okay Fuller!!!! 😎

Mine doesn’t buzz at all…
I’m pretty sure you’re a troll. sables are awesome guitars. You’re too obvious with you’re super negative supposedly true claim.
Mine is perfect, no buzzing whatsoever and I strum really heavy handed.
Too bright in my opinion.
In the studio you could always roll off the low end slightly.
Sound Great,
But not as Good as a Quality Woodern Guitars.

I don't like how it sounds at all

That... does not sound good.

If you listen on cell phone it sounds too bright. On a real speaker it sounds full and well balanced.
