Sayang sana nung christmas sale ka bumili. 30% off lahat ng Taylor. Hahaha or kung makakapaghintay ka, sa June ulit may sale birthday sale ni RJ.

I've tried baby taylor bro pero personally mas nagustuhan ko pa yung cort earth mini hehe

Thanks, guys! Just bought the Taylor BT2 Mahogany top sa SM Southmall today. Love it!

Question nga pala. Hehe.. ano stock na string gauge ng baby taylor? Sabi kasi sa akin sa RJ, Elixir13s daw? Pero mukhang mas manipis sa 13s to eh. (Sorry first time ko mag acoustic. Hehe.. )

^ based sa website Elixir Phosphor Bronze Lights (so 12's yan malamang)

Thanks, sir!

Next strings change ko try ko yung Elixir 11-52. Hehe
. Sana ok lang at walang maging problema. Hehe..

Anyway try ko rin muna mag research more sa pagpalit ng gauge ng acoustic guitar. ( Sorry! Noob here pagdating sa acoustic guitar.

[lockzackary]

if papalitan mo yung gauge from the default, paset-up mo na din (or do it yourself)

madalas problema ng gitara pag nagpalit ng gauge (saka pag lipat from winter to summer), although nasa tono naman pag open string, some frets are off tune when pressed

probably won't bother the uninitiated pero pag maarte na yung tenga mo rinig mo talaga na medyo sharp yung ibang notes

stick to 12s , its a small bodied guitar , changing it to 11s will make it sound weak.

+1. I really dislike 11's, very noticeable yung tone change. sound over comfort ako pag sa acoustic guitar.

Salamat mga sirs sa opinion. 

Hmmm... kaya ko lang gusto magpalit to lower gauge is dahil nga sa comfort pero try ko muna gamitin talaga itong 12s baka masanay din ako  Nasanay kasi sa electric at 9s eh... hahaha...

pwede mong i setup ang 12s na maging comfortable. simple setup like adjustment in action will do ..

Taylor BT2 owner here too. Mine was setup by Sir Arie and he recommended either 11s or silk & steel strings. Mahaba yung explanation niya pero it had something to do with bridge lift tendencies ng Taylor and small bodied guitar's bracing to maximize vibrations. So kahit nakakahinayang ilet go yung Elixirs, I switched to D'addario 11s.

My observation: I believe sobrang tigas lang talaga nung stock Elixir strings na nakalagay sa BT2 pag brand new even if you try to break them in. I had it for 4 months kaso walang improvement so pinasetup ko na sa Guitar Hospital. Di naman ganun kalaki difference sa tone IMO, I actually preferred the tone and feels when installed with 11s (D'Addario 85/15 Bronze). After the setup and string installation, my BT2 sounded fuller, less dull and a tad brighter. However, factor in the fact na sobrang on point ng intonation ni Sir Arie hehe.

Try experimenting with different brands na guage 12 first (not coated ones) if that doesn't work still, time to change it to 11s.

Do you know someone selling a preloved Maestro Guitar? Mejo mahal kasi ng onti pag brand new eh haahahahahaha

Wala pa akong nattry na baby guitar ng Phoebus eh. Let's ask si paps Ralph kung may natry siyang mga pheobus baby. Well, yung cort earth mini is a very great guitar and bang for the buck na din. I think around 8k price range that sounds very good for its size.

Cort and Phoebus are at par, me thinks, with the phoebus being a tad better because of wood selection.

I think in this case, personal testing na ang kailangan to make a final decision. hahahaha

Hello, review or comment po sa SQOE, in particular yung junior-size nila?

Tried the search button pero walang result.

Check out Phoebus, Protégé.

[theguitarboy008]

Mga boss anong sa tingin ninyo ang sulit? Mag high end phoebus? or yung entry level ng Maestro?

May nagpost ng video sa john frusciante FB group, using a Martin 0-15. Katunog na katunog ng mga RHCP acoustic guitar tracks. Yung Desecration Smile, shoot na shoot ang tunog kahit phone cam lang yung gamit.

ibig sabihin, sa condenser mic or sa real ears, iba ang tunog nun. more often than not, a phone cam's video audio differs greatly than that of the actual source.
