Just my sound. And the looks!

So I saw some of my biggest idols play this guitar, eg. Chris Martin of Coldplay and Dallas Green of City And Colour, and I've always loved the looks of the dark brown mahogany with the satin finish. But it wasn't until I actually bought the cheaper version by "Sigma Guitars", that I realized, it was just what I needed soundwise as well. I got it in summer 2013 and it hasn't left my side ever since. As a result I've also become a huge Martin Guitars fan in general. My next adventure is gonna be the same one as a dreadnought, the D-15M.

Acoustic Guitar Pickups

Best acoustic pick-up I know

Most of my musical idols know just as well as I do that this is just the best acoustic pick-up out there. It sounds crisp and pure and it's easy to take out. I own two of these because I had to have one on my spare guitar as well. The look is also important, if you ask me, and the LR Baggs goes sweet with just about any acoustic. Should you be thinking about getting one, spend a little more to get the active one.
