  1. @iaingbrennan You only need heavier strings if you’re playing with a bottleneck slide. Lighter strings (at least on the 5,4 and perhaps 3 string) would be better with this kind of playing.

  2. The next time I have $3000 burning a hole in my pocket, I’ll do just that.

  3. My guitar sounds so bad… Id like to admire its sound like this one, but it is so grave and buzzling, sounds so weird

  4. Looks like a 914 possibly. I have an 814 which is absolutely magic to play but the 914 is another step up.

  5. I believe he might be playing a 914. I have an 814 which is absolutely magic to play.

  6. @iaingbrennan Others are welcome to weigh in. I’ve personally played 22 years, have owned about 10 guitars over the years and never damaged one due to tuning.  In terms of strings, again, no real difference but I vary brands by guitar type, like Martins on acoustic, like d’Addario on electrics….

  7. @iaingbrennan You will enjoy it, you’ll play more. I personally had another brand for my acoustic, and find that I play an acoustic more often now that I have a Taylor…

  8. @iaingbrennan It is a Taylor accoustic. Great sounding guitars, check em out next time you’re at a shop.

  9. nice ,,,, thankyou,,, I will try to get that last lick ,,,,sounds awsome ,,,peace

  10. Does anyone know, specifically, what model of guitar Mr. Schumann is playing here? It sounds absolutely fantastic. Thanks.
