"I have 2 Martin Custom D's 1 hog and 1 rosewood, A Gretch Historic Series and I just picked up an Eastman AC320 used for under 500.00 that will take any other dreadnaught made from 200. to 20000. to the edge."

Solid spruce top. Solid rosewood back and sides. No Laminates. Nut, saddle and pins have been upgraded. Rosewood fretboard. Rosewood headstock plate. Frets in excellent shape.

Paul replied to randy white's discussion ok I'm new so this topic has allready come around probably ..sorry but $1000 guitar?"Definately the Eastman! I lust after one of these myself and for the money you get all solid woods ebony fretboards and bridges and they come really close to that old Martin sound. If that is what you are looking for."
Paul replied to randy white's discussion ok I'm new so this topic has allready come around probably ..sorry but $1000 guitar?"I have to disagree to a point. I own 2 custom D's. 1 Mahogany and 1 Rosewood. Are they a d28 or a d18? No. But they both have plenty of tone and both are cannons. You can not find a louder acoustic guitar out there. That is the primary reason I…"

Roger Ferguson replied to Paul's discussion Anyone ever exeprience this?"consider this too.... It is pretty hard to monitor one's own progress. It's like nurturing a puppy... a friend might come over and say, "Wow, your dog sure has grown!" and you may not have even noticed the "progress"…"
Roger Ferguson replied to Paul's discussion Anyone ever exeprience this?"Also keep in mind that it hard to monitor one's own progress. Living with it every day is kind of like nurturing a puppy. A friend might come over and say, "Wow, your dog sure is getting big" and you might not have really noticed…"
Paul replied to Irving Sanders's discussion What type or brand guitar do you play?"I would love to be able to afford an upscale custom dreadnaught. But it just isn't in the cards. With that being said I have to stick with my pair of Martin Custom D's. 1 Rosewood 1 Mahogany. They have volume tone and character. Can't…"
Paul commented on Dan Miller's group Flatpicking Essentials"I have been in the first book for only about a week. I have been playing for about 2 years and never really progressed past just playing chords and straight rhythm with no runs but the infamous g runs. The first volume has helped me more, in the…"

Just thought I would post a line seeing that we have the same last name. Not many Arney's out there.

Andrew replied to Paul's discussion Anyone ever exeprience this?"Do you use a metronome and keep a log of your practice sessions. Sometimes, it can be reassuring to see that, indeed, you have been able to play a tune at faster speeds over a period of time."
Dave Engel replied to Paul's discussion Learning material"Hey Paul,
Get the first 2 of Dan Miller's 8 volume set (book and CD), "complete" everything you'll ever want to know about the subject is and will be in these volumes. Go to the FMG site. Personally, I'm glad Dan did this…"
