Seagull Artist Mosaic in great company ... give a listen.

Comment by Davon Dillard yesterday

Phil, had the same thing happen to me with the cable. Hooked up my mic and had to turn it way up, so I knew something wasn't right. Dug out another cable, hooked it up and wa-la! I have found that paying a little more for a good cable can make a world of difference. Oh, I did have to order that Fishman preamp online too.

Comment by Craig MC yesterday

Manzarek's playing defined and drove the Doors. He was also the "bass" player, with his left hand!

Comment by William Jahnkow yesterday

 Man ! First is was Alvin Lee just a few months ago then Havens . I remember when seemed like all in the same year Hendrix and Morrison and Joplin . Then in 1980 Lennon gets shot by some FREAK and then Harrison with cancer. Actually I was in southern FL bug haven when Lennon was shot and it was on my girlfriends birthday Dec 8th.

 I wonder sometimes how long I've got since it seems to be our generation who seem to die early. My father died at 73 in 1990 and my Brother the youngest of my two sisters and me whom I got  into guitar decades ago died of liver cancer in june 2001 at 47 . My mother died at 88 in 2006 .

And one of the most reconizable too! Dut Dut dun na da Dut!

Comment by Jud Hair on Monday

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.

Comment by Phil Manuel on Monday

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?

Very cool

Comment by Jud Hair on Monday

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?
