Not specifically guitar related, but "Doors" keyboardist Ray Manzarek dead today at 74 ... certainly his opening organ riff for "Light My Fire" is one of the most iconic in all of rock and roll.

I tried to find a local supplier for acoustic preamps like the on Davon recommended, the Fishman GII, or the K&K Pure XLR Preamp, but no one seems to carry them.  This weekend I had to give up an electric amp, and instrument cable to my daughter for her use.  The only cable I had left to use with my K&K GA and Loudbox Mini seemed to have a lot of signal loss.  I had to bump the gain to about 3/4 of the way to get any volume.  So, I went out a got a better cable.  Low and Behold, the signal improved drastically, so only have about a 1/4 gain setting, and the tone was vastly improved.  Now, I'm wondering do I really need a preamp at all? 

I read one reveiw indicating at louder volumes I would find it beneficial, but to steer towards the K&K preamps, as others don't match the K&K pickup, and will not give satisfying tone.  Without a way to compare, I'm not really sure which way to go.  Any others with K&K pickups have thoughts.  I know Davon is using the Fishman and seems to like it.  How about others?

Ron ... that's my Artist Mosaic QII ... a 2004 model with cedar top and mahogany back & sides ... you can tell the Artist models by the inlayed seagull on the 12th fret. I found it on Craig lst a couple of years ago.

Judd,

Nice looking gull.  Is that a coastline or Maritime?

William ... No ...not a single note ...  but I definitely read lyrics, LOL.  I played for 3 hours and went through 40 songs or so.  I wish I had photographic memory so I could ditch the music stand, but alas, I need the crutch. :-)

 Jud:

 

 Do you read music ? I asked because of the stand
