It has been more than 6 month to complete MD and SSJ projects. Finally, I completed both guitars this week-end. MD showed excellent sound quality as a perfect recording guitar. MD has strong over tones in middle range with crystal clear treble, as well as tightly controlled bass. This sound character is what I wanted to create for a recording guitar. For the SSJ, I tested as 6-strings guitar first. This guitar showed much stringer bass due to the body size. This guitar still has excellent middle range overtones, and crystal clear treble. Once I put additional six strings on the SSJ, this guitar showed typical 12-strings guitar sound. Both guitars are quite loud. Particularly, MD showed very loud voice due to the side ports.
Looks wonderful!!! Are you going to ship the MD out to the owner?
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the SSJ seems more like a Jumbo to me. I believe it would also make a great Jumbo if you construct it as a 6-string.

MD was shiped to a new owner in Texas. SSJ has the same body size of Gibson J-185 model which has 16" of widest body width. I tested the SSJ with six strings setup. It showed much stringer bass than MD model with excellent middle and treble. I am quite sure that 6-strings SSJ will be a good finger style player's choice.
