Old Know It All
When I visited Starrs Guitars to pick up my PRS HDRX 20 amp, Candice showed me some new acoustic guitars (not PRS unfortunately) made from Myrtlewood.
Top, back and sides, all solid Myrtlewood. Apparently Myrtlewood grows on the California and Oregon coast.
What a sound!
Not every guitar I played blew me away but several were simply spectacular!
The sound was loud, deep and very articulate.
The bass notes were deep and full but with a clear percussive "twang" on top that was very appealing.
The one I loved most was $2800. Not cheap.
But it had me thinking about what guitars in my stash I could sell to buy it.
It seems to take stains in a really interesting way. It's kind of bland looking unstained, but stained and colored it's gorgeous.
