- Favorite Guitars
- My 1946 Martin D-18 and 1976 D-18. But I have been using my 1978 Martin HD-28, and my 1995 Martin D-18GE too. They are all great sounding guitars.

Just to let you know, you can find out a whole lot about me at www.jimnunally.com and at www.myspace.com/jimnunally
I have a brand new DVD on strums called Jim Nunally - The Art Of Rhythm Guitar - Strums. Covers the same material I teach at music camps. You can find my solo CD Gloria's Waltz online at my website too.
Of course you can get information on the bands I play in, The David Grisman Bluegrass Experience, John Reischman and the Jaybirds, and with Dix Bruce as well. Plus my tour schedule.

Here's what I'm using these days
1946 Martin D-18 with the David Grisman Bluegrass Experience and John Reischman and The Jaybirds. But I have been using my 1978 Martin HD-28 with the Jaybirds too because it has a Fishman Ellipse onboard.
I take out my 1996 Martin D-18GE now and then when the 46' needs a rest from the road.
With Dix Bruce I mostly play the 1978 Martin HD-28.
I use Red Bear Trading company's Tortis pick 1.65mm. I have a Jim Nunally signature model with them. I have been using these picks for over two years now and they work perfect, as good as any shell picks I have ever had.

Steve, my office is across the street from Dusty Strings in Seattle and it turns out they have a D18GE in stock. I had not even noticed it but picked it up. The neck takes some getting used to (or probably for me the bigger adjustment is tied to a 1…
Extremely Tasteful!! Nicely played. Thanks for posting it..
Sorry to get a little off topic :-( I realized it once I clicked the Add Reply button..
I like what you said about being able to afford a 20 Dollar Hygrometer... if you can spend 4 grand on a box.. and you can't spend the little bit of money on the…
Great stuff !... Very atmospheric the way you play this tune...love it !!
Dedicated to those of us who are just getting started.
So what you are talking about here Jon, is not what I started the thread for( but it IS a nice aside!) You NEED to know what your humidity is at in your house were your axe lives. That is what the Hygrometer is for. There are all kinds of threads ev…
I've never had a gauge that I've used for any of my guitars, but what I have done which only costs a few dollars is to get a travel soap box and a sponge to use as a small humidifier that I keep in my case.
It's works really well and fits perfectly…
Really nice. Great to see someone slowing down and being tasty.
I have to admit I do like D'addarios, once I get my callouses back I may move up to ej17's

I'll get the info out to the lists in our area.
Looking forward to seeing the show!
Let me know if you'd like to add a Friday or Saturday date and maybe a workshop in the central coast area and I'll see if we can't get you & Dix another show around here.
Contact me offlist @ barry.mcguiresb@gmail.com if that sounds like something you'd like to do.
Can't wait to see the show,

Hope perhaps we can get a chance to pick.
I'm bringing up one of my large sheet film portrait cameras,,,,and maybe we could find some time for a black & white portrait.
Best Wishes

Thank you for the kind words!
I really like your music a lot, you are an awesome guitar player!

Thanks for the nice note. It really has been a while! I'm always happy to hear and see how busy you are and that the quality and people you are working alongside are so stellar. You have a great career going and deservedly so. Hope we get to pick a little bit sometime.
Best always, Mark Cosgrove
I just recently heard some of your stuff with Dix. I'm an instant fan! Steve P has been a great friend and influence. I miss the Bay Area music scene.
Warm Regards,
Anson
See you then!
Greg
I was in your class at Kaufman Kamp '06 and in the band dynamics class on Wed. morning with you, John and Trish. Those 2 classes in hindsight were the best classes I had all week. I've used more that I picked up from you since then than anything else I learned that week.
Keep up the great picking. I've really enjoyed "Gloria's Waltz", the tribute to your mother. Good stuff!
