That's useful, thank you.
I think the Kalamazoo isn't helped by it's small vintage frets which are crowned quite low, a re-fret and a new nut cutting would probably make quite a difference. My new...

Hi, quick question to those in the know – what's the neck profile like on TG-50s, specifically a 49 model?
I have a very well preserved 36 Kalamazoo archtop tenor but I'm finding the v profile and...
APC appear to making them for Thomann too
p.s. How're you getting on with it?
Thanks for that, I've sent an enquiry
Looks great, congratulations. It looks pretty wide, is it loud? I could do with zouk or OM with dreadnought like volume.
I see hobgoblin also have them listed but no pic or info as yet.
This looks good for a very modest price for anyone in Europe.

There's loads of pics and some sound clips here, looks and sounds very decent for about £115/€160
I've got some 9s and 10s in readiness for a bit of experimenting
Well I now have a 12 string guitar unison strung like a bouzouki plus a high g and low D, DGDAdg.
The GDAd sound good, like a guitar bouzouki unsurprisingly. The high g is a little weak in tone...
That's ace, thanks
Here's a cheaper option new from Ozark

I've currently got my carbon fibre 12 string guitar in with a tech being setup to be fully unison strung – like the Veillete Gryphon etc but full 25.5 scale.
It's not a permanent plan for a 6...
You're nearly at Fripp's New Standard Tuning CGDAeg, but that's a whole different world of crazy
There are some duets in the book, there's an audio sample of a solo piece on this page
Coincidentally I've just had a copy delivered this morning, some really nice arrangements from listening to...
Yes headway, not sure if it failed completely but I was getting the weak, thin signal you complained of. Not a problem as I bought the OM on it's own merits rather than on the pickup. Might have been...
Yes just the pickup, I can't imagine the vocal mic was picking much if anything of the OM up. The room was quite echoey which is probably helping the realism.
It's actually placed a little in...
Hi,
When the highlander in my Tobin died I replaced it with a Baggs Lyric (I use Lyric and Anthems in my guitars), I couldn't find any evidence online of anyone else using one in a CBOM but...
My recently acquired tobin OM has a headway and on board preamp/9v from the quick recording I took the other night I find it's output pretty low, lower than the passive JJB on my mandolin and the...
Yes Emerald, Alistair loves custom work. Have you seen his cello guitar

He's also just added a unison strung 'mando' type guitar...
I've sent you a PM re the flyde if you do want to move it on at some point.
Having had the instrument in my hands this is how it appears to me, seems the seller was given some flannel from a shop about the distortion being 'belling' and a deliberate part of the design. So it...
Yes just missed out on one last week on ebay, there are a couple 2nd hand in hobgoblin and the musicroom respectively so an option
It arrived suffering top distortion unfortunately, see thread in repairs section so the quest continues for a large bodied OM/cittern type thing ...
And had lots of helpful advice, it's back to the ebay seller unfortunately.
On the plus side it has shown me that an oversized longer scaled OM type of instrument is what I'm after, CBOM family instruments are so rare you do seem to have to buy them to try unfortunately.
...
There's no question of it going back to moon for warranty work, I don't think the guy I bought it from is the first owner - he thought the top distortion was a deliberate part of the design.
It...
