ARe you a guitar player? If so, did you look at the demos and read the reviews? If not, then why would you say such a hateful thing?

Lol

Illustration:

I have three identical high-end acoustics made within several years of each other. One sounds pretty good. One is a dull bird. One is extraordinarily bright and beautiful. The device will not make the dullard sound good....or the best sound better...to any degree that would be meaningful. Spend more for a better guitar instead of whackjob widgets....and play before you buy....run the racks. Get the one that smothers you in kisses, like a happy, healthy puppy.

I agree. Guitars are like kids. As I mentioned, I eagerly awaiting the delivery of a Martin D-18 1937 Authentic. It’s only a couple years old, and has very little playing time on it. I’m sure out of the gate it’s going to sound decent, but probably not a whole lot different that the High End Mahogany guitars Martin makes like the D-18 Golden Era. The tonerite is only around $130 less than 4% of the cost of the guitar. I’m going to try it for 30 days and see how it sounds.

The D-18 Authentic arrived today, along with the Tonerite. I’m still at work, but I couldn’t resist to hook the device up. If rests just ahead of the bridge, and you get a very sustained humming vibration throughout the guitar that you can feel with your hand. I mean if a guitar ages with play, then this is really an artificial way to simulate that. I am quite sure that it will make a difference esp a dull guitar.
