#smallwins I went to a small venue concert last week to see Al DiMeola. There was only about 125 people at the show. I had a front row seat , about 25’ away from the master! Great sound, great show, all acoustic of course!
Hi Tony, I enjoy your show. I’ve been playing guitar for 58 years and teaching music & guitar for 14 years. I’ve learned a lot from your show. I have a request. Would you please get your hands on a Guild D-55 and give me your review. Please give a demonstration and share your thoughts. Acoustic guitars are the way to go in playing an instrument. Give it your best.
