    I absolutely love my Orangewood, it's a Mason Live Limited edition. I upgraded the tuners to gold grover locking ones and installed some gold power pins. The end result is the nicest acoustic I've ever owned and it literally rings like a bell. Such awesome tone projection. If your in the market for a great guitar and don't have $3,000 for that Taylor or Martin you really want I encourage you to try one of these Sage models or one from the Melrose collection like mine. If you don't love it they have a great return policy.

    @DarrelBraunGuitar I've really enjoyed your channel, lots of great content. Ive learned as a bit of a beginner that when it's time to upgrade the smart move is to get a better amp before upgrading the guitar or pickups. So it would be great to see more content reviewing amplifiers and speakers. Because I want to upgrade my amp but looking into it is a little bit daunting, so it might be nice to see some low end, mid range and high end options looked into as well as realistic or smart upgrades that might be more cost effective to improve existing amps. Also looking into the differences between tubes and solid states and what the pros and cons are of both. I guess just your take on a more comprehensive look into the whole other end of the tone. Thanks for your great work and keep up the awesome channel.

Great tone for a laminate but I'm most impressed with the playability. Super nice neck and very good action. Really glad I got it. I think I first saw it on a Darrel video.

    And maybe a 2 seconds intro that wont hurt, my dude you should do a poll for those kind of things ask people, and with that you’ll surpass Davie504, your vids, ive watched guitarists on youtube from Rob Chapman n the other one to Davie, n when i say you got what it takes to surpass him, i mean it, its not a compliment or something its just how it is !!

    After viewing the several videos that Darrell has out on Orangewood Guitars I decided to buy one. I chose the Morgan Live for it's price and because I decided laminated mahogany sides might be a bit more stable than the real mahogany that the Sage has.
    I had read that people love their Orangewoods and I can see why. They are very well made - set up was perfect out of the box, no sharp frets, etc. I had read that people did not care for the Ernie Ball strings they come with, however, and I totally agree. The biggest issue for me was how scratchy sounding the G string was. I replaced the strings with Elixir .12s and now it sounds even better!
    I'm going to get a pick guard for it but I don't like the appearance of the tortoise shell guard they send with it so I am ordering a black pick guard from a third party. A great value!! Thank you Darrell.

    This guitar has a quite penetrating sound and it sounds really good but can't help it, jumbo guitars is my weakness. I have a mini jumbo myself and it sounds amazing with a big soft sound. This guitar should be perfect for folk, pop and country though. It will probably do a great job live.
